R218S

Perfect transparency, accuracy, and clarity that lacks nothing.

A passive dual front firing 18 inch to be paired with our rack amps, the R218S is a high fidelity subwoofer dream. Each driver features a 4.5 inch voice coil, solid carbon fiber cone, and is capable of getting way past Xmax travel without audibly compressing or distorting, leading to extremely high efficiency characteristics. This is not a klippel measured DSP tweak, this is real stroke, real mechanical engineering where simulations have very little to do with the finished result.

Newton's Third Law: Action & Reaction. For every action there will be an equal and opposite reaction. Because of this law, the very definition of an efficiency loss within a speaker is compression. This is a law of our physical universe that a rating service can not circumvent. What truly matters is the guarantee of full usable stroke and the guarantee that you can use it. This means we are the only subwoofer manufacturer that guarantees that our equipment will perform past Xmax to a degree of clarity and accuracy that is currently beyond the industry standard. The explosions are more visceral, the subtle details more present, the transients have zero overhang, and you are free to enjoy audio bliss.
