KEY FEATURES
• High power handling (400 w AES)
• 3” (77 mm.) copper voice coil with apical former
• Optimum winding length for increased linear
excursion
• Extended response in the medium frequency range
• Designed for high power woofer applications

GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The design concept of this low frequency transducer arises from the need of achieve a more resistant loudspeaker that matches
the more and more power given by ultimate amplification systems. In order to accomplish that, almost every component of the
speaker has been reconsidered. The SM-118/N incorporates a 3” voice coil made with high quality materials: copper round wire
with high temperature bonding strength and apical former. Moreover, it features a powerful magnet system with rear air
ventilation. All these facts result in a 18” driver with extended and smooth low-mid frequency response, reduced harmonic
distortion, good efficiency and excellent power handling (400 w AES). The SM-118/N is specially recommended for woofer
applications.
