Martin Audio SXHF218

The enclosure is constructed from multi-laminate plywood and coated with hard-wearing textured black polyurea. A rigid perforated steel grille protects the front of the enclosure, while integral flying hardware alongside use of the WPLGRIDt means it can be incorporated at the top of a WPL array, or more commonly flown as a separate array alongside, again using the WPL GRIDt. Like the ground-stack version, a combination of forward and rear-facing enclosures can be configured with specific directional properties. By adding an outrigger kit, SXHF218’s can also be ground-stacked beneath WPL enclosures to form a powerful ground-based system.

The SXHF218 can be powered by either a single channel of a Martin Audio iK42 4-channel amplifier, or a bridged pair if maximum output is required. Its connector sockets are wired so that one four-core cable from the amplifier will power two subwoofers. SXHF218 settings are determined by a pre-determined parameter set in Vu-Net when used in conjunction with iK42, or Settings are available from the Martin Audio website when used with alternative amplifiers.

We provide this subwoofer with a set of four castors. By adding the connector cover accessory, the subwoofer becomes fully weather-resistant and suitable for outdoor use.
