Incredibly linear frequency response characteristics, extreme high power handling while generating the lowest harmonic distortion of any comparable 18-inch transducer within its application range.
The LF18X400 uses a fibre loaded cone assembly along with a high excursion triple roll, constant geometry surround. A fully optimised T-pole design generate the minimum amount of flux modulation. The T-pole also features RCF Precision’s spaced gap demodulation technology, progressively braking the voice coil, providing a much smoother transition for the moving mass as it reaches its maximum excursion limits. Forced air venting system
Features
- 4-inch, fiberglass inside/outside copper voice coil
- 2000W continuous program power handling
- 5 dB Sensitivity
- 25 Hz – 1 kHz Frequency range
- Progressive, spaced, aluminum demodulation rings
- Forced air ventilation and 14 mm top plate for minimum power compression
- Dual spider design with silicon based dampening control

Applications
- The LF18X400 is ideal for use in applications where incredible power handling,long excursion and perfect control is required.
- Ideal for high quality professional bass reflex and bass-horn system.
- The transducer's low frequency extension, coupled with its extremely low generation of harmonic distortion,also makes it ideal for use within critical listening applications such as studio monitoring subwoofer system.
