Vision Series
PA180SW
High Efficiency Subwoofer Speaker System
SPEAKER
■The PA180SW high-efficiency subwoofer is the ideal bass-frequency extension to complement the VISION series two-way loudspeakers.
■The low-frequency transducer is a high-power 18" woofer with a 4" voice coil. Using horn-reflex loading to the transducer, the subwoofer design ensures an efficient acoustic response down to 40Hz.
■The subwoofer system includes a high-level crossover network that features markedly lower (than conventional) induction values in series with the woofer. We call this innovation LICC (Low Impedance Compensated Crossover). The benefit is delay reduction, reduced phase shift and superior transient response. The high-pass crossover section is connected to terminals on the input plate to facilitate easy interface with VISION Series two-way loudspeaker systems. The crossover is easily bypassed for bi-amp or tri-amp operation via an installer-accessible changeover block. Back panel indicators display the current system setting.
■The Mackie Industrial PA180SW is a part of the VISION family of loudspeaker products including fullrange, cost-effective, two-way loudspeakers and complementary subwoofer cabinets. The two-way enclosures have a trapezoidal footprint for easy array configuration. All enclosures are constructed using 19mm void-free, birch plywood and finished with a scratchresistant black coating. Transducer components are protected from the environment by a heavy gauge metal grille. The VISION products are eminently suited for fixed installation, ready for suspension via built-in M10 inserts with metal reinforcement and forged shoulder eyebolt hardware.
■This Mackie Industrial product is covered by an exclusive, one-time, NO FAULT repair policy in addition to a five year limited warranty.
