DESCRIPTION
Big Ben is an extremely fast, 1x18 subwoofer. It can be used as
a stand-alone speaker enclosure, as part of a bi-amp system, or as
the low end component for any large, multi-speaker bass rig. It's a
must-have for any true bottom dweller.
CONNECTION AND OPERATION
Big Ben can be connected to any musical instrument amplifier that is capable of driving an 8 ohm load.
To connect your amplifier to Big Ben, run a high quality speaker cable (18 gauge or heavier) from your
amplifier's speaker output to one of the designated speaker inputs (Speakon on 1/4") on Big Ben's
input panel.
POWER HANDLING
The power output rating for any amplifier connected to Big Ben should not exceed the enclosure's 400
watt RMS power handling capacity. Please be aware that exceeding Big Ben's power handling capacity
can void the SWR warranty if any damage occurs to the 18" woofer due to overpowering.
FULL RANGE INPUT AND OUTPUT JACKS
Big Ben features four, full range input/output jacks (two standard 1/4" and two Speakon) wired in paral-
lel. If you are running two speaker enclosures in parallel, connect the speaker cable from your amplifier
to either jack labeled "IN," and a second speaker cable from either jack labeled "OUT" to the input of
the second speaker enclosure.
