• Kortec dome tweeters for crystalline high-frequency sound. Kortec is a polyester woven dome with a special stiffening agent creates a tweeter with the high frequency extension typically associated with metal dome tweeters, but without the harshness that is a property common to most metal domes;
• Deep Channel (DCD) driver design that makes the most of the available amplifier power by using a deeply grooved pole plate that enables the voice coil to travel farther, for greater output without bottoming;
• Heavy-duty, aluminum C-brackets and unique wedge shape design that makes mounting easy and aesthetically pleasing
