		Accordingly, the Warwick's cabinet is constructed from 18mm MDF panels for extra rigidity, further aided by the extensive use of internal damping pads to eliminate unwanted resonances.
		Because we have used shielded magnet assemblies throughout, the Warwick 3 is as much at home as either the front or rear pair in an AV system as it is used as a stand alone stereo pair.
