SPECIFICATIONS SB180
DESCRIPTION
A dedicated subwoofer system with an 18-in transducer in a
compact vented rectangular enclosure. Available in a por-
table version (‘R’ with handles and NL4 connectors) or a
permanent installation version (‘P’ with mounting/suspen-
sion points).
APPLICATIONS
The SB180 provides high output sub bass response in a com-
pact enclosure. Tuned enclosure venting extends LF response
and minimizes driver strain. MX Series processors extend LF
response and safeguard against cone excursion damage. Com-
prehensive mounting/suspension points. Six year warranty.
Applications include:
Band PA
Ballroom Events
MultiMedia
Boardrooms
Restaurants
Small Retail Spaces

DIMENSIONAL DRAWINGS
DIMENSIONAL DRAWING A & E SPECIFICATIONS
The sub bass loudspeaker systems shall incorporate one 18-
in LF transducer mounted in a vented enclosure tuned for
optimum low frequency response.
System frequency response shall vary no more than ±3 dB
from 27 Hz to 250 Hz measured on axis with appropriate
signal processing. The loudspeaker shall produce a Sound
Pressure Level (SPL) of 96 dB SPL on axis at 1 meter with a
power input of 1 Watt, and shall be capable of producing a
peak output of 132 SPL on axis at 1 meter. The loudspeaker
shall handle 1000 Watts of amplifier power (AES Standard)
and shall have a nominal impedance of 8 Ohms.
The loudspeaker enclosure shall be rectangular in shape. It
shall be constructed of 1/2-in thickness void-free cross-grain-
laminated Baltic birch plywood and shall employ extensive
internal bracing. It shall be finished in black catalyzed poly-
urethane. Input connectors shall be 2-terminal barrier strip.
A total of sixteen 3/8"-16 threaded mounting/suspension
points (4 each top, bottom, sides) shall be provided. The
front of the loudspeaker shall be covered with a vinyl coated
perforated steel grille.
The sub bass loudspeaker shall be the EAW model SB180P.
