WHY: Our belief is that deep, powerful, distortion-free bass should be accessible to everyone. For THE18 SUB PASSIVE VENTED, our goal was to create a subwoofer that delivers the uncompromising quality that ASCENDO is known for, at a more attainable price point while still addressing the needs of our distributors, dealers, and customers.
HOW: Our design philosophy emphasizes the perfect balance of deep extension, impactful punch, and precision. THE18 SUB Passive Vented features a carefully chosen tuning frequency of 25 Hz, ensuring optimal low-frequency reproduction without sacrificing performance. The vented enclosure enhances the bass extension, and our advanced engineering guarantees maximum performance via a high-temperature voice coil, linear suspension, and a robust magnetic motor system. Additionally, the enclosure is heavily braced to minimize resonances and ensure precise sound clarity, even at this price level.
WHAT: THE18 SUB PASSIVE VENTED is an 18” subwoofer crafted for durability and superior sound. It is designed for amplifiers with 1000 to 2000 W power output at 4 ohms and features a high-temperature 4" voice coil for long-term reliability. The cast frame eliminates resonance, ensuring high-fidelity bass. Whether used in a home theater or commercial setting, this subwoofer delivers exceptional sound pressure level (SPL) with in-room extension down to 20 Hz. For advanced subwoofer setups, THE18’s shallow design enables flexible placement behind screens, side walls, or in the back of the room.
