FaitalPRO’s 18HW1070 heavy duty subwoofer has a ferrite 18” driver along with a new cast aluminum, eight-spoke frame designed to reduce rear reflections, add structural strength and limit basket weight. The 18HW1070 is also equipped with triple demodulation for lower THD, with an inductance reading of 1.68 mH.

The maximum physical excursion of +/- 30mm, combined with the Thiele & small parameters, especially EBP, Vas and BL, make it well suited for very low tuned vented cabinets.
The magnet assembly combines two significant features. First, the motor is designed to generate an intense yet very linear magnetic flux that helps sustain great acoustic pressure for deeper bass reproduction. Additionally, a new cooling system is designed to optimize the working temperature of the 100 mm (4in) voice coil and lowers power compression.
The cone is created using a refined mix of synthetic and cellulose fibers, treated according to proprietary techniques. Moreover the suspension has been specifically designed to match the dual non-adjacent symmetrical spiders, which, assembled on a custom fixture keeping them 12mm (1/2in) apart, guarantee maximum linearity of movement and DC-offset control to the entire moving assembly.
