LX-1818AV2
ACTIVE DUAL 18" FOLDED HORN SUBWOOFER
greybar

LX18ThemeThe B-52 LX-1818A V2 is designed for mobile music professionals. They combine the advantage of a long throw folded horn design with the power and reliability of B-52's digital amplification.
A 24 dB / octave electronic crossover, compressor and hard limiter are
built into the amplifier allowing these subwoofers to easily patch into an
existing system with just a pair of XLR input cables. These roadworthy cabinets feature scratch-resistant carpet finish and will withstand the abuse of the road. The new B-52 18-200X subwoofer provides increased power handling and efficiency. The B-52 LX-1818A V2 is perfect for mobile DJs and touring sound professionals that require tremendous bass output with the convenience of an active system.
It delivers 1200 watts of thundering bass that will resonate all the way to the back of your venue. Precision-placed internal dividers allow each subwoofer to fire into the central chamber without cancellation. Each subwoofer is housed in separate compression chambers, resulting in kick-ass, earth-shaking bass. So, pump up the volume and feel what B-52’s bass is made of!

ENTER THE DIGITAL DOMAIN
B-52’s digital amplifier is more than 93% efficient, draws less power than conventional amplifiers and therefore generates less heat. Less heat translates to longer device life, more efficient operation and unparalleled reliability.


BUILT-IN COOLING FAN

The revolutionary digital amplifier is housed in a sub-compartment that is cooled by a high-performance fan. The fan is designed to take in air from the top vent and expel
it through the bottom vent.

ELECTRICAL DRAW: JUST 12 AMPS

B-52’s digital amplifier draws less than 12 amps of electricity at full volume. So whether you’re throwing a party near a nuclear power plant, or a house party with only a 15 amp breaker, the LX-1818A V2 can be plugged in virtually anywhere without the risk of popping a circuit breaker.



• An aluminum front panel heat sink dissipates heat in the subwoofer compression chamber. This provides greater power handling, more overall output and cooler long-term operation.
• The LX-18 is finished in a rugged,
impact-resistant black carpet.
• Void-free, 7-layer, 3/4” plywood construction for maximum durability and minimum weight.
• Reinforced internal bracings are used to fortify the LX-18.

INTERNAL COMPRESSION CHAMBER
The B-52 18” subwoofer’s acoustic load is controlled by a specially designed horn and compression chamber that minimizes the excursion of the driver while maximizing the system's output. The optimally-sized acoustic aperture of the compression chamber forms the throat of the horn and helps to force air through the horn at an increased velocity and pressure. The compression chamber optimizes the horn's output and the acoustic impedance seen by the B-52 18-200L transducer. It is this acoustic impedance transforming “phase-plug” design that enables the LX-Series subwoofers to achieve amazing and unprecedented output levels.
