Active PA speakers: Subwoofers

The high-performance subwoofers of compact size with integrated 2.1 active modules are suitable for a wide range of applications. They are the basis for setting up a small or medium-sized compact PA system without the need for transporting additional amplifier systems. The microphone and line inputs can be mixed and the crossover frequency of the subwoofer to the passive satellite speakers can be adjusted over a wide range. The mixed signal can then be passed on to further systems via stereo pre out.

A balanced input with par. out (both XLR), a phase reversal switch as well as various protective circuits complete the range of features. Equipped with lateral carrying handles and a stand sleeve at the top of the cabinet. It provides an extra powerful sound with a good low limit frequency. The excellent efficiency of the sytem is remarkable for a subwoofer. At a perfect sound adjustment of the low-pass filter, the upper limit frequency matches high-performance top parts which are able to reproduce a sound down to at least 100 Hz at max. load in a way typical of band-pass. The PSUB-18L is a professional addition, particularly to the 500 series and 600 series from IMG Stage Line and very well-suited for the L-RAY vertical arrays.
