The towers are structurally reinforced with internal window bracing and lined with thick Dacron for optimal sound dampening. Every speaker includes an internal-mounted crossover and efficient wire routing, ensuring efficient performance and serviceability. The robust, over-one-inch thick multi-layer front panel enhances rigidity. The driver layout is optimized for superior sound quality, complemented by non-parallel midrange walls to reduce internal reflections, delivering an exceptional acoustic experience.
