The Stage 2 HDI Horn is coupled to an anodized aluminum dome tweeter to enhance efficiency and dynamics.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003ePrecision 2.5-Way Crossover\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe 245C center channel model features a unique two and a half-way crossover design. This unique design crosses over the top woofer right below the tweeter’s output, while the other woofer is crossed over at a lower frequency. This creates a dynamic mid-range but both woofers still extend as deep as they can go for powerful bass. This produces cohesive balanced output with a robust low end that can be both heard and felt.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003e5-Way Binding Posts\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSturdy 5-way binding posts provide the listener with their choice of high-quality connection.
