The MVP40 is a rugged, high-sensitivity, subwoofer system. The system
utilizes one 18" woofer for solid bass and excellent power handling capa-
bility. This transducer is matched to an optimally tuned direct-radiating
bass-reflex enclosure. The system is specifically designed for easy pole
mounting of MVP full-range systems with an integral 1 3/8" diameter
stand socket on top. The recessed handles, black carpeted exterior and
injection molded corners also make this system attractive and rugged.
The MVP40 offers a unique 150 Hz high-pass crossover output that
makes it easy to add to existing full- range systems without additional
amplifiers and electronic crossovers. This product should never be sus-
pended by its handles.
