TLD

Carbon Studio subwoofer - 18 Inch

Named after the first to buy this concept design, the TLD is molded on the 18vS. Designed for increased efficiency over the 18vS, the TLD offers delicacy and clean bass that operates beautifully on very little power.

Studio drivers offer predictable output performance, there is no sudden changes or diminishing sound quality. The TLD takes this performance type and turn it up.

Designed and manufactured in Canada.
