[. . . ] Additionally, the back plate is vented with a radius aerodynamic back vent which efficiently and quickly circulates cool air around the voice coil. This allows for more excursion and higher power handling without damaging the sub. Voice Coil The 4-layer, edge wound voice coil design of the speaker allows for a variety of impedance loads to be configured when used individually or matched with multiple subs. Please continue to the TECH TIPS section of this manual for wiring diagrams and procedures. The Eternal Series subs come in dual 4 ohm coil configurations. 5 Woofer Features 2" Phat Foam Surround The 2" foam surround is resilient to temperature variations and provides the consistent support necessary for the linear motion of the speaker cone. In addition, the inherent damping capabilities eliminates the transmission of sonic disturbances between the cone and the frame of the speaker. The narrow surround also allows for greater surface area of the cone, thus increase efficiency for low frequency response. Flat Spider The speaker's linear compliance is balanced through the use of a flat spider design. A flat spider provides symmetrical control of the voice coil through it's cone excursion. Linear cone excursion reduces harmonic distortion for improved sound quality. This allows for reduced mechanical distortion for better sound quality. Chrome Finish Chrome has long been an industry standard in terms of durability in protective metal finishes. We have spared no expense in this area, and not only is it a protective finish, but it is also a great addition to any plexi style enclosure. 6 Audiobahn Woofer Parameters AWES12P AWES15P Model # AWES10P Vas does not represent the volume of a Box. 25 Hz 22 Hz Fs 30 Hz Qts 0. 5 0. 5 0. 493 0. 55 0. 54 Qes 0. 54 5. 89 7. 4 Qms 6. 99 60. 51 Liters 91 Liters Vas (Liters) 20. 18 Liters Vas (Cu. 3. 6 ohms 3. 6 ohms Re 3. 6 ohms 3. 86 mH 4. 18 mH Le 3. 75 mH Mmd 146. 44 Grams 151. 33 grams 220. 57 grams Xmax +/-13mm +/-13mm +/-14 mm RMS 900 1100 1300 Sd 0. 029 0. 048 0. 081 Freq. 20Hz-500Hz 18Hz-500Hz 15Hz-500Hz Efficiency 90 92 94 An EBP of less then 45 is SUGGESTED for only a sealed box and greater then 65 for a ported box.

For optimum performance, we recommend using 3/4" MDF (Medium Density Fiberboard) and internal bracing. The enclosure should be glued together along with support of screws or nails. Because MDF is porous, it is suggested that you seal the outside with polyurethane prior to painting or carpeting. Calculating Volume Calculating is merely a matter of measuring the dimensions in inches, and using the following formula: Box Volume = (Height) x (Width) x (Depth) divided by 1728.
