Dynacord F12, F17 PWH, F18 PWH & F8 Subwoofers

The F8 subwoofer marks DYNACORD’s consequent further development of the meanwhile legendary F118. The highly efficient Electro-Voice EVX180B 18" woofer is capable of handling a continuous program power capacity of 500 W offering a peak-SPL of 130dB and lowest non-linear distortion. The integrated passive PowerMax x-over (x-over frequency 160Hz) features a parallel output and an additional crossover output offering trouble-free parallel or x-over operation when combined with professional full-range or Mid-Hi cabinets. Reliable protection of the Electro-Voice EVX180B woofer against critical peak levels and thermal overload is guaranteed through a thermal breaker and professional halogen lamps. The SPEAKON-type connectors wired-through, allowing active system installations that employ DYNACORD system power amps PM2600 or Xa2600 for instance can be set up using 4-pole SPEAKON-type cables, without the risk of inadvertent mismatching. Four extremely robust castors are located on the cabinet’s rear and four ergonomically optimised recessed handles facilitate handling and transportation. Frontal protection is provided through a robust steel grille that is covered with acoustic foam.

F17 PWH

The F17PWH is a highly efficient bass-cabinet with optimally matched dimensions an enclosure geometry to perfectly complement the F12CWH Mid-Hi cabinet. Its compact size, castors on the rear as a standard and low weight make the F17PWH the first choice for medium and long-throw on- the-road applications. Through its high efficiency of 99 dB (1 W/1 m) and a power handling capacity of 500 watts, the F17PWH accomplishes coverage distances of 60 m – 80 m in two-stack operation and of 120 m – 160 m when stacked in four. The recommended transition frequency to Mid-Hi cabinets is 160 Hz/18 dB/oct. Butterworth or 24 dB/oct. Linkwitz-Riley.

F18 PWH

The F18 PWH is mostly used serving as high-performance subwoofer. Especially its supreme long-throw ability and mid-bass range directivity make the F18PWH the predestined subwoofer to be employed in basically any system configuration. Both Planar Waveguide™ bass-horns are equip- ped with an ELECTRO-VOICE EVX180B 18“ high-performance chassis with a power handling of 500 watts RMS / 1,000 watts program into 8 Ω.
