The SSP218-MK3 design combines sensitivity, depth, power handling, fidelity and value. It offers amazing versatility and practicality for those who need a lot of low end for a wide variety of applications, delivering massive output, reliably, consistently and with great fidelity. The SSP218-MK3 sustains its output long-term and is practically impossible to blow thanks to the combination of extremely rugged, very high power handling, long excursion drivers, carefully optimized cabinet and port design and several effective but transparent protection systems that are part of the integrated signal processing. The protection systems effectively prevent thermal overload of the voice coils and minimize long-term thermal compression while having virtually no effect on the transient response and peak output of the loudspeaker. The SSP218-MK3 achieves extremely flat frequency response, measuring ±1.5dB from 32Hz to 100Hz. No equalization is utilized to achieve this response. Unlike designs that require equalization, the SSP218-MK3's tone, response and sensitivity are native to the design. Competing systems that require bass-boost EQ to achieve their stated response are still subject to the physical excursion and thermal limits of their drivers. The SSP218-MK3 system is optimized for full-power operation and is designed to operate at full rated RMS power throughout its operating range while the woofers remain within their X-max specification. This allows it to achieve very high output, low frequency sound with minimal distortion.
Versatility is one of the SSP218-MK3s greatest strengths. There are two 35mm pole sockets in each cabinet. Having two sockets allows the subs to be deployed horizontally or vertically while still providing for smaller top cabinets to be mounted on poles above the subs. In addition, using these sockets allows front-fills or larger BASSBOSS top cabinets to be locked in place when stacked on the subs with no unsightly straps required. The enclosures feature four large rubber feet and corresponding recesses in their tops to facilitate interlocking the boxes when stacked. The feet also interlock with the available wheel carts, allowing multiple boxes to be stacked on a cart for rapid deployment with minimal effort. The stacked set's footprint measures 29.5" x 48", making it easy to fit them securely in almost any commercial truck. The carts can accommodate up to 4 subwoofers, allowing for extremely tight truck-pack density. Alternatively, three-high stacks or 3-high cardioid stacks can be pre-configured on carts, ready to roll in and rock. The cabinets are made from 18mm Birch plywood, are extensively braced and feature 4 steel bar handles. They are coated in weatherproof high-pressure Polyurea and the drivers are protected by a powder-coated, perforated steel grille. The cones also feature a waterproof coating. The SSP218-MK3 features a 5000W amplifier with an auto-sensing, globally compatible power supply that can run on input voltages anywhere between 90 and 250 Volts. Full output power is available on anything over 110V. The amplifier's peak-output voltage provides for intense high SPL hits while its sustained output is unparalleled in its ability to deliver the liquid lows. The amplifier is passively cooled via its external heat-sink and by woofer-generated airflow through the port. When necessary, four blower-fans will engage to provide additional forced-air cooling capacity in more extreme conditions.
