Design

The DM602 uses a bass reflex cabinet design with a front-firing port to extend low-frequency response. It incorporates a 180mm Kevlar cone driver for the bass and midrange, chosen for its rigidity and low distortion, and a 25mm metal dome tweeter for high-frequency reproduction. The crossover network directs signals at 3kHz, matching the drivers’ optimal operating ranges.
