The JBL Sub18 is a high-end studio subwoofer for the highest audiophile requirements. The transmission range extended to below 18 Hz and the very high level reserves allow demanding use in large rooms such as film mixes or music productions.
In the low frequency range, the 2269H chassis (18") with 4" dual voice coil is used. This differential drive chassis has two highly efficient neodymium magnets, which is arranged in the center of the coil. This position creates two air gaps that drive two voice coils. This increases the driving force acting on the diaphragm. The result is an optimal transient response of the diaphragm with very low distortion, high sound pressure and extended low frequency response.
The JBL Sub18 is driven by an external amplifier and DSP (optional). Crown I-Tech HD power amplifiers with integrated DSP processor and pre-programmed presets are recommended.
