E 18 SUB

18” hornloaded ground stacking subwoofer / 1.000W (RMS)

The E18SUB is a horn-loaded 18" subwoofer, that can be combined with all ELITE speaker models. The high power handling and very high SPL of 135 dB ensure precise sound pressure and an extended frequency range down to 35 Hz. The integrated stacking fittings match with the EL10 and EL15 line array modules and with the EH15 horn module. The optional ESA1 stacking frame enables the use of the E18 SUB in combination with the ELC26 line array module. In flown and in stacked operation: The locking pins ensure a safe mechanical connection of all components.

► Max. sound pressure level 135 dB (35 Hz-250 kHz)
► 1.000 W speaker power capability / 8 ohms impedance
► Fully stacking fittings (locking hardware)
► Applicable with EL10, EL15, EH15 and ELC26

The E18SUB is a subwoofer in a rectangular chassis for fixed installations and mobile use. The subwoofer is equipped with one high-performance 18" speaker (4” voice coil), which is hornloaded for long-throw effect. The integrated locking-hardware can be used for a quick and safe connection to all other ELITE models in stacked applications without any adapter or additional frame. The ELITE models EL10, EL15, EH10, EH15 and E15SUB can be stacked, fixed and tilted (negative / positive +/- 3°) to ensure a perfect alignment of the mid/high frequency speakers to the audience. The integrated tripod base (M20) enables the use of a M20 distance rod for universal and flexible use. The chassis is constructed from 15 mm plywood (birch) and covered with black PolyCoat© finish. The cabinet is equipped with four grip handles and one front grill with transparent charcoal foam backing. Two speakon connectors (NL4) are mounted at the rear side of the chassis for signal input (input) and signal link (link). The power rating of the E18SUB is 1.000 W (RMS), the impedance is 8 ohms.

EHORN | Hornloaded Core-Technology.

Line array systems are usually a combination of different technologies. The mid/high frequency range is covered by standard array cabinets. This enables high reach. But subwoofers are mostly based on direct reflecting or similar technologies. This results in different maximum reach and SPL between mid/high and sub/low frequency range. The solution for the same maximum reach along the whole frequency range: The ELITE family is completely based on NOVAs „EHORN“ technology. All models including subwoofers are fully horn-loaded.

ELITE systems offer the same SPL along the whole relevant frequency range from 20 - 20.000 Hz.
The result is an equable increase of reach.
