VIO S318
Rev 1.2 cod. 420120244Q
Thank you for choosing a dBTechnologies Product!
VIO S318 is an active semi-horn loaded subwoofer, designed for professional use, bassreflex, equipped with three
18” woofers (voice coil: 4”).
The triple powerful DIGIPRO
®
G3 amplifier section, capable of handling up to 2700 W (RMS power), is controlled by
a DSP, which can perform a detailed customization of the output sound of the subwoofer. In particular, thanks to
the complete control interface, it is possible to accurately tune various types of configurations, like cardioid or end-
fire. The RDnet connections allow an in-depth remote control, thanks also to free available software (dBTechnologies
Network and dBTechnologies Composer). Professional accessories (like DRK-210 fly-bar, DO-VIOS318 dolly) allow an
easy set-up to create professional configurations, completing live installations with VIO-L210 line-arrays.
