The HP-218 is a high-efficiency dual 18-inch ported subwoofer featuring two low distortion 18-inch woofers. It offers a frequency range of 28Hz to 200Hz (-10dB) and is designed to complement the HP series full-range speakers or other similar series. Its purpose is to extend the low-frequency response of sound reinforcement systems. It is also well suited to compliment any of the FPA bass products for ultimate bass reinforcement.
Utilizing two high-power low-frequency drivers with a 4-inch (100mm) voice coil from Precision Devices. Equipped with effective ventilation in their magnetic circuit structure, which efficiently lowers the operating temperature of the drivers during high-power usage, thus reducing instances of power compression in the speaker. The HP-218 port design, internal structure and large exit area significantly reduces the typical airflow noise associated with conventional low-frequency cabinet designs during dynamic operation, enhancing the efficiency of the tuned ports output, resulting in increased energy output in the ultra-low-frequency range and reduced low-frequency nonlinear distortion. The high transient low-frequency driver strikes a perfect balance between power and delivery in the low frequency domain.
HP-218, boasting a 2000W AES power rating can achieve an impressive peak sound pressure level of 136dB.
Featuring two recessed wooden handles on each side of the enclosure for convenient stacking or transportation. The enclosure’s bottom is equipped with four rubber feet, while the top yields four footpad recesses, facilitating easy stacking of subwoofers for array configurations. The enclosure’s surface is coated with a durable black water-based semi-gloss paint, and it is constructed using 18mm plywood.
