The E-18ELF is an extended low frequency loudspeaker designed for
ultra low frequency applications. The rated bandwidth is 30Hz to 100Hz.
The E Series II E-18ELF is an 18 inch (460mm) diameter transducer that
features a large format 4 inch (101.6mm) voice coil design to insure
very high power handling and high reliability. The E-18ELF is similar to
the E Series II E-18LF but has been optimized to additional extended low
frequency response. The relationship between loudspeaker efficiency
and low frequency response means that the E-18ELF has a lower 1
watt @ 1 meter sensitivity, as compared to the E-18LF, but does offer
extended deep bass response.
The E-18ELF should be used whenever very low, extended bass response
is required for special effects or when program material contains
sufficient content in the extended sub bass range. When high impact
tour quality bass is required the E-18LF should be used.
The E-18ELF features a rigid stamped steel chassis coupled to a large
diameter Ferrite permanent magnetic structure. The large format voice
coil features a high conductivity copper voice coil with substantial thermal
capacity. Ultra high temperature adhesive systems are employed
to insure maximum reliability. The E-18ELF has been optimized through
the use of computer based measurement and modeling. The extended
voice coil length provides increased linear excursion at high input power
levels. |
