Bogen IGS12M 12″ In-ground/On-ground Subwoofer, Mulch Brown Color Enclosure

The NEAR has again rewritten the book on all-environment audio. The all-new NEAR IGS12 all-environment subwoofer delivers unparalleled low-frequency performance via groundbreaking engineering and design. Legendary MDT and MLS technologies have been continuously advanced since their introduction in late 80’s and early 90’s. Coupled with our new UDIO woofer design, NEAR woofer technology has reached a new pinnacle of performance. This powerful woofer technology is mated with an innovative enclosure design rotomolded using NEAR exclusive LLDP (Linked Low-Density Polyethylene) to create the toughest and most beautifully versatile outdoor subwoofer available, at any price.

The striking design of the IGS12 masks unsurpassed durability. The handsome yet rugged LLDP enclosure is “color-through” so garden tools won’t harm its looks. This ultra-rugged subwoofer is tough as nails and weatherproof, yet attractive enough to install “free standing.” Its conical design provides functional rigidity and extra security when buried.

Features

• Purpose-built to be extremely durable in all weather conditions, mounted in-ground
• Stylish design provides functional rigidity and extra security when buried
• Anodized metal-alloy speaker cones (MDT) are extremely stable in all environments
• UDIO (upside down/inside out) driver employs inverted cone diaphragm driven by voice coils wound both inside and outside the former for extremely accurate linearity, even at extreme volume levels
• Signal connection via pre-terminated burial grade cable exiting the bottom of the enclosure; the 8 conductor cable provides access to 70V taps or select 8-ohm operation
• MLS spiderless motor uses specially developed Ferrofluid to center the woofer voice coil and eliminates the distortion generated by spiders
• Sealed magnet gap eliminates corrosion near voice coil
• LLDP (Linked Low-Density Polyethylene) color through enclosure is acoustically inert and stands tough under abuse in extreme conditions
• Advanced polymer cone surrounds resist UV rays, chlorine, fertilizer and salt spray
• 70V multi-tap transformer standard for use with the NEAR 6XL power amplifier in 70V operation (can be by-passed for 8-ohm systems)
• Mulch brown color enclosure
