BASSO2121t
Dual 21˝ High Performance Band-Pass Touring Subwoofer QuickStart Guide
The goal of BASSO2121t is to bring that world-class touring subwoofer
performance in a package equivalent in size, weight and set-up
requirements to most standard dual 18” subwoofers available in
the market today, providing tour sound companies with a cost-
eective solution for professional touring set-ups and top subwoofer
performance for sound productions and installations of any size,
complexity and budget.
BASSO2121t mounts IDEA 21˝ woofers, with 4” dual voice coils, 1400 W
power in a 5th order band-pass cabinet built, like all IDEA models, with
the necessary structural strength and nish quality required for durable
touring use. The high quality 18 mm birch plywood enclosure covered
with IDEA Aquaforce custom paint solution and a 2-mm steel front
grill will keep your equipment safe and brand new after hours of heavy
touring.
BASSO Series models allow the user to choose the most adequate
subwoofer for any given situation from within a family of products with
common nish, design solutions and performance philosophy as well as
shared rigging and transport accessories.
BASSO2121t features four integrated handles, two skates for safe
stacking and a 35 mm Pole mount socket. Optional rugged, durable
wheels kit is available.
