The 12W600 low frequency transducer meets the specific market requirement for a loudspeaker combining good linearity and efficiency with high power handling capabilities.

Although primarily developed as woofer in compact reflex cabinets, the 12W600 driver’s versatile characteristics make it also suitable for bandpass.
The high quality curvilinear cone assures smooth response and exceptional strength with maximum reliability under high mechanical stress. In the same way, the suspension geometry has been carefully designed for superior symmetry, resulting in DC offset free movement in a very low frequency area.
