Sales of the infrasonic passive subwoofer Krix Loudspeakers UCX-218 have begun — the most powerful model from the Australian company. The model uses a pair of 18-inch woofers with a long diffuser stroke. The woofers are located in the housing opposite each other, which compensates for mechanical vibrations and provides a clean, neutral bass sound. The operating range of the Krix UCX-218 subwoofer starts from a record 10 Hz.
You should also take into account the gain — to drive the model, you will need a power of 2 x 1500 - 3000 Watts into 4 Ohms or 1 x 3000 - 6000 Watts into 2 Ohms (parallel). The Krix UCX-218 subwoofer also features flexible installation - it can be placed both vertically and horizontally, including installations with multiple subwoofers. The new product weighs 91 kg and is supplied as three modules.
In Australia, the recommended retail price of the new product is 13,495 Australian dollars.
