Renkus-Heinz SA118‐RN‐WR Weather resistant (WR), Self‐Powered with RHAON, SA2000‐RN

Product Overview

The Renkus-Heinz SA118-RN-WR is a weather-resistant, self-powered 18-inch subwoofer built for permanent commercial installations that demand deep, controlled low-frequency reinforcement in demanding environments. It pairs the SX118 cabinet and SSL18-11 woofer with an integrated SA2000-RN amplifier module, adding RHAON II network control and DSP for system-wide tuning. As a networked subwoofer with factory-optimized multi-band limiting, it integrates cleanly with Renkus-Heinz full-range and steerable loudspeakers across houses of worship, auditoriums, and multi-purpose venues.

Product Description

The SA118-RN-WR delivers the power and punch of an 18-inch woofer in a cabinet engineered for straightforward integration. Large ports keep forceful bass free of chuffing or fluttering noise, while the built-in SA2000 amplifier precisely matches the woofer's power needs and provides optimal damping. The integrated amplifier eliminates separate rack space and long speaker-cable runs, so adding subwoofer support to an existing system is as simple as connecting power and signal. Controlled through RHAON II, the onboard DSP offers eight fully parametric EQ filters, high and low shelf filters, high and low pass filters, and up to 340 ms of delay, all accessed from a Windows computer. The weather-resistant (WR) treatment prepares the enclosure and hardware for high-humidity and covered outdoor applications where standard cabinets are not suitable. Sixteen M10 Universal Mounting points and an M20 pole adapter support both flown and ground-stacked deployment.

Key Features

• Integrated SA2000-RN Amplifier — The built-in 2000-watt amplifier module is factory-matched to the SSL18-11 woofer for optimal damping and multi-band limiting that protects the driver.
• RHAON II Network Control — Onboard DSP with eight parametric filters, shelving and pass filters, and up to 340 ms of delay is configured over Ethernet from RHAON II software.
• Weather-Resistant Construction — The WR option protects the cabinet and components for high-humidity and covered outdoor installations.
• Deep Low-Frequency Output — Frequency response extends to 32 Hz (-10 dB) with a maximum peak SPL of 132 dB half-space for substantial bass reinforcement.
• Flexible Mounting — Sixteen M10 Universal Mounting points plus an M20 pole mount support flown, stacked, or pole-mounted use.
• Simplified Integration — The self-powered design removes the need for external amplifier racks and long speaker-cable runs in distributed systems.

Typical Applications

• House of worship
• Auditorium
• Multi-purpose room
• Commercial meeting space
