◆ Powder Coat Finish Powder coating has long been the industry standard for durability inprotective metal finishes. A dry powder (non-aerosol) is electrostati-cally applied to the metal and “baked” on to provide a hard “shell-like” finish. As an additional benefit, powder coating is the onlyfinishin...

Page 8 - THE RESULT: Allows custom setup of tweeter output level.

◆ Zobel Network The Zobel network compensate for the impedance rise presented bythe driver (speaker). The network flattens out the gradual impedancerise produced by the voice coil which typically results in highfrequency rolloff. The Zobel Network compensates for this naturalrolloff which allows the...
