HyDrive HD Series Cabinets
Thank you for purchasing a HyDrive HD Bass Enclosure from Hartke! We know you
don’t like reading owners manuals, but you’ve just purchased one of the finest bass
speaker systems around, and we want to tell you about it. So, before you plug in and
start playing, we’d like to suggest you take just a few moments to scan these pages.
The HyDrive HD series is the second generation of bass speaker enclosures featuring
Hartke’s patented HyDrive hybrid cone bass transducers. HyDrive speakers are
constructed using an outside curved Kevlar
®
-loaded paper cone producing warm
low frequencies and an inside anodized aluminum cone that produces smooth mids
and high-end extension. This new series reproduces even more of the fundamental
frequency, providing a clean sound with a big low end, allowing you to sculpt a wide
range of tones for any musical style.
With proper care and operation, your HyDrive cabinet will operate trouble free for many
years. We recommend you record your serial number in the space provided below for
future reference.
