B&C 18PS100-8
Description
The most powerful 18" in the B&C ceramic product range with its 700 watts RMS power handling, the 18PS100-8 defines the low frequency reproduction "state of the art".
The industry-standard B&C Speakers 18PS100 features a 0.83" long/4" diameter copper wire voice coil with high thermal capability, and a ventilated magnet assembly, both of which contribute to low power compression. A very low distortion figure is obtained using a double spider design and dual demodulation rings in the magnetic path. The 18PS100 is fortified by a proprietary water-proof cone treatment that facilitates safe use in adverse climatic conditions. This benchmark pro subwoofer driver is found in many famous manufacturers' well-established loudspeaker enclosures.
