The PQ18B has a peak power capacity of 2800W, which drives the 18" driver with a frequency response of 45 to 200 Hz and a 138 dB SPL. The subwoofer is designed to work in conjunction with Lake DSP and Lab Gruppen amplification, providing optimal FOH performance as well as considerable flexibility to readily adapt to varying venue requirements. Multiple bass array configurations and all pre-sets are available to download.Benefits 18" reflex-loaded subwoofer for tour and live sound applications700W continuous, 2800W peak power18" low-frequency driver with 4 voice coil with FEM Optimized motor and suspensionsLow-distortion bass reflex quad-flared port designFlexible cardioid configurations and electronic delay steering provide superior rear rejection and pattern controlOptimized tuning for extended low-frequency impact and accurate transient responseAdditional Details 5/8 & 3/4" plywood enclosure with hard wearing semi-matt black PU paint finishSeamless integration with Lab Gruppen amplifiers and Lake DSP for a complete system solutionIntegral feet secure ground stackingIntegral M20 (3/4" / 20mm thread) pole-mount socket to support satellite speaker configurations3 x NL4M rear panel connectors for input connection, link, and pin swap linkFront-mounted NL4 connector for rear-firing cardioid operationCustom-Engineered Drivers Turbosound is recognized the world over for designing and building some of the most iconic loudspeakers and subwoofers. We take meticulous care and pride in maintaining that reputation by utilizing only drivers designed and specified by ourselves to our exacting standards.Enclosure Design The low-distortion design utilized in the PQ18B reinforces the low-frequency spectrum in program or live music, steep cut-off slopes and large singular QFP Technology (quad flared port design). Low-distortion bass reflex ensures an effective acoustic transition for use with PQ series elements.Construction and Connectivity Finished in a highly durable semi-matt black paint, the cabinet is constructed from 15mm (5/8") and 18mm (3/4") plywood and includes a rugged powder coated foam backed perforated braced steel mesh grille. The rear-panel connector plate carries industry-standard twist-locking speaker connectors for input, link, and pin swap connections to additional enclosures. The front grille also has a twist-locking speaker connector to allow neat cabling when the enclosure is deployed in cardioid mode.Integration with Lab Gruppen IPX 4800 and PLM+ With the ever-increasing complexity of modern-day sound systems. Seamless integration with the Lab Gruppen IPX4800 and PLM+ is a prerequisite for the PQ series from Turbosound. The engineers have prepared and meticulously designed a series of presets that will allow the user to achieve the maximum system performance and consistency possible. These can be found within the download section. Future FIR capable platforms from Lab Gruppen will be supported.
