SX218

Dual-driver, direct radiating subwoofer

 

The SX218 achieves the ultimate in subwoofer performance for the most demanding applications – delivering very high output levels and

superb transient performance with minimal distortion.

 

With an operating range of 35Hz-150Hz ± 3dB, it houses dual 18” long excursion (460mm)/4” (100mm) voice coil drivers with waterresistant cones and triple roll surrounds. Each driver is rated to handle 1000 watts AES, and has a magnet structure and suspension engineered for maximum linear excursion.

 

The enclosure is constructed from multi-laminate birch ply and finished with a durable polyurea coating. Eight reflex ports provide a large frontal area to reduce turbulent air noise, and a perforated steel grille protects the drivers from damage.

 

The product is supplied as standard without cabinet wheels, but they are available as an accessory.

 

By adding the input board cover accessory, SX218 is fully weather resistant and suitable for permanent outdoor usage.

 

A flying system is available for installed systems which require a flown subwoofer solution.
