Description

Details

The Low Rider 18" driver is a milestone in high-power subwoofer design. An incredible 1600W program rating and extra-long cone excursion come together to produce amazing new levels of clean, deep bass. This makes the QW-118 a superior choice for the bottom end of any high powered sound system.

The QW-118 is unusually compact for its power handling, SPL output, distortion performance, and bass extension. This is made possible by special characteristics designed into the Low Rider woofer. The QW-118 is well braced and very stiff, as internal pressures produced by the Low Rider woofer can be very high. The vent design integrated into the enclosure includes a vertical brace to further increase enclosure stiffness.

The QW-118 vent’s large area and long path length allow for a large volume of air to move with very low resistance. This is important due to the massive airflow volumes that the Low Rider woofer can produce.

The QW-118 is constructed of premium .720" plywood and is covered with a tough, durable black Hammer-Head polyurethane coating, making this system rugged and extremely roadworthy. A 16-gauge, powder-coated, perforated metal grille covers the front of the system to protect the speakers from external damage.
