Pioneer TS-A1673R Speaker, 35 W RMS, 220 W PMPO, 3-way

Experience smooth sound with A-Series. Pioneer's exclusive technology enriches your music by producing clear, open sound. Bring out the details of your music with A-Series speakers. Our TS-A1673R now feature upgraded power handling. Every year, our engineers somehow find a way to improve on our Premier A-series speakers. This year, they feature something they've inherited from the D-Series speakers, a basalt cone. And we're continuing to lead the industry with next-generation technology for improved sound: the tweeter, magnets, surrounds, the voice coil wire, the basket and more are all high-performance components that make up a great speaker.

Key Features and Benefits: Carbon graphite IMPP interlaced Aramid/basalt fiber cone One of Pioneer's major speaker breakthroughs was IMPP (Injection-Molded Polypropylene), which allowed cones to be lighter AND more rigid. Then Pioneer added long stands of Aramid fibers into the mix, for extra strength. Now, Pioneer has gone even further with the TS-A1673Rs, adding basalt and carbon graphite interlaced with long aramid fibers to provide strength and rigidity that powerful bass sound requires. Large diaphragm tweeter The newly developed tweeter disperses sound more widely with superior control, providing listeners with the best sound under all conditions, regardless of listening position or car. And the 1" mounting depth achieves more flexible installation. Heat resistant polyester-imide resin voice coil wire Creating mechanical energy is hot work, especially at high volume levels. And as Pioneer all know, heat can cause distortion. That's why the TS-A1673R uses a heat-resistant polyester-imide resin voice coil wire. It allows the voice coil to handle more heat, improving input power handling as well as reliability. So go ahead. Turn it up. Power handling The TS-A1673R now handles a full 220 watts maxima power. So, what did Pioneer has to give up? Not a thing. Along with bigger power handling, you still get the same high performance that all the TS-A's deliver.
