L-Acoustics SB18 - UK Hire & Sales

The SB18 is the universal subwoofer designed for L-Acoustics line source and coaxial systems, lowering the combined system operating range down to 32 Hz.

Made of high grade Baltic birch plywood, the cabinet also features a pole mount socket for use with one XT or two KIVA enclosures. Its compact size and integrated rigging make it extremely well suited for flown coupled configurations with KARA.

The SB18 is also available in install-specific versions, SB18i, SB18iW, and SB18iRAL, with the latter two featuring white or RAL coating of the enclosure.

The design comprises an 18’’ transducer with a dual bass-reflex tuned enclosure.

The control and amplification of the SB18 is managed by either the LA4 or LA8 (LA-RAK) platform. The onboard DSP filtering encompasses advanced crossover functions, system EQ, and dual thermal and over-excursion protection of the transducer.

The L-Acoustics amplified controllers offer the ability to use SB18 subs in standard and cardioid mode.
