EIDOS 218 S SUBWOOFER FEATURES Highly efficient, powerful low-frequency loudspeaker fitted with two 18” transducers Exceptional size-to-power ratio (148.5 dB SPL short-term peak @ 1 m) facilitates location Proprietary Outline design provides tremendous ‘punch’ Outline ‘E.R.P.’ (‘Energy Retentive Porting’) design assists airflow and enhances transducer efficiency Finished with Polyurea, featuring amazing durability and superior physical properties Design file for Outline ‘Openarray’ 3D acoustic simulation software Conceived, designed and manufactured exclusively in Italy (as are all Outline products)
APPLICATIONS High-quality permanent installations in any location which requires extended low-frequency reinforcement including dance clubs, live music venues, indoor sports arenas, theme parks and modern worship locations An ideal partner for all Outline line/point source systems.
DESCRIPTION This all-new design from Outline complements the existing EIDOS installation range by providing a unit whose low-frequency extension and power handling capabilities exceed those of the dual-15” EIDOS 215 S module. Consequently it is ideal for those applications requiring super-powerful subbass delivery, including live music and dance venues. The EIDOS 218 S is particularly well-suited to reproducing modern dance music as the design provides not only extended low-frequency reproduction (down to 28 Hz) but also tremendous ‘punch’ in and around the frequencies normally produced by both real and synthetic bass drums. This focus and clarity not only enhances the reproduction of program material but also makes the most efficient use of amplifier power.
this unique arrangement of specially-shaped ports ensures an optimum laminar airflow. This reduces internal turbulence, maximising the efficiency of the transducers and thus allowing more amplifier power to be converted into acoustic energy.
This is a result of Outline’s proprietary ‘E.R.P.’ (‘Energy Retentive Porting’) design. Based on the principles of fluid dynamics and successfully applied to the science of controlling pneumatic forces within a loudspeaker enclosure,
Such a design requires high-precision manufacturing techniques, and Outline’s engineering team have applied some original production techniques to turn an exciting concept into a physical reality.
