It handles 1500 W continuous (AES) at 8 Ω and reaches 131 dB max SPL, with response down to 23 Hz (-10 dB). A pure carbon fiber cone and AUDAC's AeroVent porting keep the bass clean at high levels.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eHow does the AUDAC BASSO118\/B infrasubwoofer work?\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/images.pvs.global\/audac\/products\/BASSO118-B.webp?width=1200\" alt=\"AUDAC BASSO118\/B infrasubwoofer\" style=\"max-width:100%;height:auto\" loading=\"lazy\"\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe BASSO118\/B pairs a 18\" carbon cone driver on dual suspension and a 4\" high-excursion voice coil with AUDAC's AeroVent exponential port, which is designed to cut airflow noise as the driver moves large volumes of air. The cabinet is tuned to 33 Hz, giving 30 Hz – 120 Hz (-3 dB) with 99 dB sensitivity. A multi-layer polyurea coating protects the 18 mm plywood cabinet, and a high-current terminal block with link-through simplifies multi-sub arrays. Drive it from a high-power amplifier channel through a DSP with proper high-pass and limiter settings.
