Martin Audio SXCF118, Compact 18"/14" Cardioid Subwoofer system. Flying Version Black & White

This Martin Audio SXCF118 arrangement produces a cardioid dispersion pattern that maximizes the front radiation and reduces unwanted radiation behind the subwoofer. The recommended iK42 amplifier optimizes the DSP parameters for front and rear drivers to maximize the rear rejection — from 21dB at 43Hz to 28dB at 75Hz. Martin Audio SXCF118 keeps low frequencies away from stages and walls as well as reducing reverberant energy in the room — greatly improving low-frequency response accuracy and impact. In front of the enclosure, the output from the two drivers is additive, giving an extra 2dB of output when compared with a conventional 1 x 18” subwoofer. The enclosure is constructed from tour-grade plywood and finished with a hard-wearing textured polyurea coating. It is equipped with four grab handles and foam-backed perforated steel grilles to protect the front and rear drivers. Integral flying hardware, coupled with the WPSGRIDT, allows the Martin Audio SXCF118 to be incorporated at the top of a WPS array, or flown as a separate array alongside. Interlocking skids prevent movement when stacked and a threaded plate in the top surface facilitates pole-mounting of up to 4 WPM enclosures or a single point source enclosure.
