Features

The cabinet of the AWS-6is constructed of impact resistant ABS plastic that is sealed to provide resistance from the natural elements of the weather. The rounded back is for easy placement into a corner. All hardware parts are made from brass, aluminum or stainless steel and the binding posts are plastic to avoid rusting and/or corrosion.

For high frequencies, a 1” mylar dome tweeter is used. This tweeter uses Ferro Fluid™ liquid cooling to allow greater power handling. For midrange and bass reproduction a long throw 61⁄2” polygraphite woofer with a butyl rubber surround is used.

Steep acoustic slope crossovers are used to integrate drivers. The use of steep crossover slopes allows high power handling, minimizes driver interaction anomalies, and maximizes the clarity with which each driver is able to produce its respective frequency band.

The bracket for the AWS-6allows the speaker to be hung either horizontally or vertically, can be mounted several different ways and swivels for optimum place- ment.

System Setup and Placement

In order to extract the best possible sound from your speaker system, it is important to determine where the speakers will sound best in your listening area. Reflections from the floor, ceiling and side walls influence the balance, imaging and overall sonic quality at the listening position. We suggest you experiment with speaker placement to determine which location offers the best overall sound and protection from direct weather elements.

The distance from the listening position to each speaker should be close to the distance that separates the two main speakers. Angling the speakers inward towards the listening position may give a more spacious and realistic sound stage.

Placing the speakers in a corner or under an eave will provide reinforcement for the bass frequencies, resulting in higher bass output. Placing the speakers away from any corners or walls will provide the least amount of reinforcement, resulting in lower bass output.
