Input is via two channels of a combo female XLR and 1/4" TRS phone jack with balanced input to the preamp/
EQ electronics, and a level control.
The internal speaker crossover and processor is implemented with a high-performance DSP system. Using 24
bit ADC's and DAC's operating at 96 kHz, the 32 bit fixed point DSP processor provides all the filtering and EQ
functions to allow the subwoofer to operate at it's best. DSP based limiting works in conjunction with the DDT™
compression to improve woofer reliability without intruding into the musical performance. An LCD display
shows what functions or presets have been selected, these functions are selected via a push-to-select rotary knob.
A High-Pass output provides a buffered and balanced output signal for a satellite speaker to carry the high range
of the music, via a male XLR jack.
A Full-Range Thru output has a male XLR connector. This output allows linking of additional speaker systems,
or feed of the signal to other devices, etc.
Four large heavy-duty casters on the rear allow the cabinet to be tilted up on it's back, and rolled around for
transport. When the terrain does not allow the unit to be rolled, there are two pairs of steel handles, one pair at
each end when in the transport orientation, to allow the RBN™ 118 Sub to be transported to a location where it
can be rolled again.
Applications
The Peavey RBN™ 118 Sub has a variety of applications such as extending the bass performance of smaller full-
range speaker systems used for sound reinforcement, public address, side fill system, karaoke or musical play-
back.
A typical signal source for the line-level inputs of the Peavey RBN™ 118 Sub would be a sound reinforcement
mixing console (mixer) or the output from a CD player, MP3 player or tape deck. The high-pass filtered signal
from the RBN™ 118 Sub would then be sent to a full-range powered speaker system, easing the burden of deep
bass from this speaker system.
