The 

Adamson Load Library

 contains presets designed for a variety of S118 applications. When flown or stacked in the 

same array as an S7, all S118 presets contain the inherent delay needed to be properly phase-aligned.

For a master list, please refer to the 

Adamson PLM & Lake Handbook.

When flown or ground stacked separately, S118 subs should be phase-aligned using measurement software.

All S118 presets are also available in CC (Conventional Crossover) versions minus 5 ms delay.
