Features

This loudspeaker system delivers high

output, low distortion bass from two

18" Pro Rider woofers mounted in a

vented enclosure. It is designed for

portability and includes handles, metal

grille, reinforced corners, a durable

carpet exterior, casters and rubber feet.

A pole mount is included for support of

a high-pass enclosure. A remarkable

reduction in weight has been made

possible by using top-quality birch

plywood construction instead of the

usual composite wood materials, even

though power handling has been

increased.
