NotesRevision uprating power handling from 100W peak to 200W peak. Changes made to drivers and crossover making the parts not interchangeable with the original version. Tweeters now connected in reverse polarity. Identifiable by the addition of an aluminum trim ring to the reflex port, listed power rating and stamped reference mark 'Q' on rear of cabinet and box on non-U models.
