SBLA185SUB

18", Passive Subwoofer System
The SBLA185SUB is a folded horn subwoofer specifically designed to reproduce deep sub-bass frequencies with maximum efficiency, speed and impact. It is intended to be used with in the most demanding touring situation where extreme levels of bass are required. It is also ideal for reproducing the concentrated bass energy of contemporary dance music in club environments.

It features a powerful 600W, 18” low frequency transducer with a magnet structure and suspensions specifically engineered for very large linear excursion. The internal “S” shaped folded horn couples the driver to the air load by means of a modified hyperbolic expansion law. This results in an efficiency that is typically 5dB greater than ported direct radiator sub-bass systems and contributes to the exceptionally fast transient characteristics of the SBLA185SUB.

The SBLA185SUB is designed to be ground stacked. The best performance is achieved by close coupling a stack of four or more SBLA185SUB’s mirror imaged on their sides to increase the combined horn mouth area. For large outdoor systems, stacking mirror imaged pairs up to six or more high will form a tall line source which will focus the bass into the audience yet retain good horizontal coverage.
