Active Subwoofer 1x18" ALTEA-718A DAS

The ALTEA-718A is a self-powered subwoofer system designed to provide extended bass response for full-range ALTEA systems. At the heart of the system is a DAS 18FW4 woofer. This speaker incorporates a high-efficiency design using FEM analysis and a 3″ voice coil for long excursion. Cooling the 18FW4 is ensured by a vented polar pattern and extensive vents in the speaker's rear plate, maintaining low power compression while providing excellent acoustic response over long periods. Powering the DAS 18FW4 is an innovative 1200W peak dual-channel Class D amplifier. The rear panel features a balanced input connector and stereo loop-through output connectors for ALTEA satellite systems. Digital presets accessible on the rear of the system via the DAScontrol™ interface make combining ALTEA systems easy. The ALTEA-718 is the passive version for use with external amplification and DSP.
