INTRODUCTION
Connecting and setting up the S218s is a breeze.
It accepts a speaker-level signal via either a Neutrik
Speakon
®
connector or female 1/4-inch TS (Tip/Sleeve)
connector. The built-in low-pass fi lter allows you to
connect a full-range signal directly to the input of the
subwoofer.
The cabinet is constructed using 15 mm multi-layer
birch plywood. A carrying handle is integrated into each
side for easy loading and transport.
Thank you for choosing the Mackie S218s sound rein-
force ment subwoofer.
The S218s is a professional passive subwoofer, de-
signed to complement our professional line of passive
and active loudspeakers, powered mixers, and power am-
plifi ers. It is capable of extremely high sound-pressure
levels, and designed to give you the best performance of
any subwoofer in its class and price range.
The S218s features an 18-inch high-power low-frequency
woofer in a bass-refl ex designed cabinet. The woofer inco-
porates technology used in large-format touring systems
and is virtually indestructible.
