B&C 18 DS 115 8 LF Driver
- 3400 W Continuous power handling
- 4.5 in (116 mm) Voice coil diameter
- Neodymium Inside Slug Magnet material
This next evolution subwoofer uses a new, longer, four layer aluminum voice coil. The result is more energy in the gap, less heat, higher sensitivity, higher power handling, lower distortion and better overall performance. The 18DS115 features a 40mm long, 4.5 inch diameter (116mm) Copper Clad Aluminum Wire voice coil. With a 1700watt AES power rating, 98 dB sensitivity, and over 14.0mm of Xvar, this high energy subwoofer is a significant step forward from similar models in the B&C range.
