Professional Loudspeakers 18FIND - 18-inch Ferrite Low Frequency Woofer • High efficiency / low extension woofer design • Advanced ferrite magnetic motor structure • Lightweight 18-inch glass fiber loaded cone with progressive, high excursion, constant geometry triple roll surround • Single spider design with silicone based dampening control • 4-inch, inside/outside wound, high temperature composite polymide coil assembly • Innovative voice coil ventilation system for higher output and lower power compression • 1000 watt AES / 1400 watt program power handling • Frequency range: 28Hz – 2.5kHz • Ideal for ported or band pass subwoofer designs
The 18FIND is a high efficiency, (98 dB 1watt / 1 meter) 18-inch woofer with incredibly linear frequency response characteristics, extreme high power handling capability while generating low harmonic distortion artifacts. The 18FIND uses a lightweight glass fiber loaded cone assembly along with a high excursion triple roll constant geometry surround. This combination provides remarkable strength, high efficiency and a peak to peak maximum excursion of 50mm (2in). Power Handling At the core of the 18FIND is it’s voice coil technology featuring a composite polymide former material capable of withstanding peak temperatures in excess of 250C, well beyond the thermal requirements of modern professional audio systems, optimal structural strength and thermal characteristics. Former strength provides the ideal transfer of power between the voice coil and the cone assembly and assists in reducing distortion artifacts. By combining this material with state of the art adhesives and our inside / outside voice coil technology, the 18FIND delivers incredible performance. Magnetic Circuit Design Redcatt engineers have developed a lightweight, ferrite based magnetic circuit capable of delivering the highest level of performance providing a consistent, high integrity magnetic flux gap, ultra low distortion characteristics and high efficiency cooling system. The magnetic circuit design is optimized to generate the minimum amount of flux modulation providing exceptional stability. Redcatt’s single silicone sealed spider functions as an air pump expelling
hot air and drawing in cool air every time the cone assembly moves. The 18FIND cone and dust cap are made using an advanced Redcatt pulp with glass fiber reinforcement. The woofer cone is also extensively treated to withstand harsh environments and high humidity. Metal parts in the speaker assembly are coated for extreme weatherization protection. The 18FIND is ideal for use in vented port or band pass -applications where sizable amounts of low frequency acoustic Redcatt Ltd. implements the use of advanced Klippel transducer technology equipment in all critical areas of transducer development including R&D, Material Science, Power and Production Testing. Full Klippel reports are available for all Redcatt transducers upon request.
