Introduction

The 2-way bass reflex enclosure incorporates:
■ custom designed, high quality components.
■ 2 amplifiers:
600 + 250 W continuous
850 + 350 W peak
■ 2 independent processors
■ 24dB/Oct electronic crossover
The bass reflex enclosure, constructed from birch plywood, is
equipped with a custom designed 18" low frequency woofer
and a 2" driver with constant directivity horn for the mid/high
frequencies, each driven by its own dedicated power amplifier.
A high slope 24dB/Oct. electronic crossover and two processors
(one for each amplifier) optimize the dynamic range and
frequency response of the system, while protecting the drivers
from thermal and electrical overloads, resulting in increased
reliability and outstanding performance.
Its adaptability to various applications allows the W18As to
be used in any type of installation ensuring optimum results
to any professional requirement for sound reinforcement and
distribution.

The trapezoidal enclosure design is based on solid technical reasons:
• directivity remains constant and controlled, even when two or more
enclosures are installed side by side.
• the problems related to interferences and irregularities in frequency
response and directivity, typically encountered when using multiple
enclosures, are thus dramatically reduced.
Multiple enclosures arrays can be assembled for wide dispersion and/or
long throw.
