Description

This is the original open baffle specific bass augmentation driver, purpose built to excel in free air, open baffle applications. With a 10-year history of use in over 45 countries, the Hawthorne Audio OB Augie is a proven and trusted leader in the open baffle following. This driver may be used to augment your favorite mains drivers, to fill in under their natural roll off. Operated in dipole, open baffle, these drivers provide stunning bass augmentation that is uncolored, natural, accurate and impressive. Open baffle speakers eliminate the resonances and colorations typical of box speakers. Bass notes are clean, articulate and register the most subtle differences in tone while allowing each bass instrument to sound unique and distinct from all other bass instruments. They may be used in mono, dual mono or stereo. Additional units may be added to increase displacement and excitement. Augies are intended to be used with independent, dedicated bass amplification. The Hawthorne Audio Augie was well reviewed by Dick Olsher of "Enjoy the Music.com. The following is an excerpt taken from his review of the 15" Augie. "It seems to me that many listeners confuse bass weight with bass extension and opt for a subwoofer when bass weight is lacking. The problem typically lies in the upper bass, the octave from 120Hz to 240Hz where much of an orchestra's foundation and acoustic power resides. This is the octave that box woofers have a hard time coping with, basically managing to sound boxy through this range. In contrast, the Augie managed to shine here, elucidating instrumental fundamentals with consummate clarity and 3D realism. The Augie's performance was so open-baffle friendly that I decided to use it as a foundation for several full range drivers."
