18 PZB 46 | Woofer
Very long excursion 18” woofer with 1400W power handling for subwoofer
application where excellent reproduction of the lowest frequencies is
mandatory. A special 4" voice coil using proprietary high temperature
adhesives and an optimized magnet assembly guarantee very good LF
dynamic range, low power compression and a very low distortion figure. A
double spider with optimized compliance ensures excellent mechanical
stability even in the hardest working conditions.
