QW-118 specifications

The Peavey QW-118 is a cutting-edge subwoofer designed to deliver powerful, deep bass for a variety of sound reinforcement applications. Known for its exceptional performance and durability, this subwoofer is a favorite among musicians, sound engineers, and venue operators alike.

One of the most notable features of the QW-118 is its use of a heavy-duty 18-inch woofer, which is designed specifically to handle high power levels while maintaining clarity and precision in sound reproduction. This driver ensures that low frequencies are delivered with authority, making it ideal for genres such as rock, hip-hop, and electronic music. The QW-118 can handle a power rating of up to 800 watts continuous and boasts a peak power of 1600 watts, ensuring that it can withstand the rigors of both live performances and installed sound applications.

The enclosure of the QW-118 is constructed from premium-grade plywood, providing both strength and rigidity for the speaker. Its design includes a durable black carpet finish that not only enhances its appearance but also protects the subwoofer from damage during transport and setup. Additionally, the rear panel of the enclosure features rugged handles for easy lifting and maneuvering, ensuring that setting up and tearing down remains hassle-free.

Another key technology found in the QW-118 is its optimal port design. The rear-ported construction allows for superior ventilation and reduces turbulence, resulting in cleaner bass response. This design choice ensures that low-frequency output remains consistent, whether the subwoofer is used in a small venue or a large concert hall.

Moreover, the Peavey QW-118 is compatible with a variety of other Peavey speakers, making it a versatile addition to any sound system. The subwoofer can be easily integrated with full-range cabinets, allowing users to create a powerful two-way system that delivers a well-rounded listening experience.

Overall, the Peavey QW-118 combines robust construction, advanced technology, and high-performance sound delivery to meet the demands of today's audio professionals. Its ability to produce deep, impactful bass while maintaining clarity makes it an excellent choice for both live and installed applications, ensuring that audiences experience music as it was meant to be heard.
