General Description
The HPI18LP is designed for the permanent
installation and live sound touring market.
It is suited to mid to high sound pressure level
bass and sub bass high fidelity reproduction
as a stand-alone unit or in combination with
the 12” HPI212S sub bass as a multi-way or
parallel sub bass system.
Versatile and Functional
The HPI18LP sub bass is primarily intended to
deliver sub bass support to the HPI-110/210
speaker system but it can also be deployed
with any medium format speaker array or
distributed system where extended high
output sub bass is required from a compact
enclosure.
Please read and become familiar with the
following installation manual to get the best
results from your Quest HPI series speakers.
All Quest HPI series speakers are designed
and for the high end professional live sound
industry. However they will give better results
if they are installed and operated within
standard industry practice. Pay particular
attention to the section on “Overhead
installation and rigging” if you are flying an
array of speakers or flying the sub bass.
Features
The HPI18LP has a number of features
designed to increase performance and
versatility for a professional mobile sound or
permanent installation environment. A great
deal of attention was paid to the details of the
design to make the HPI18LP both sonically
excellent and functionally suited to touring
sound reinforcement and also A/V rental
markets.
The compact design makes it possible to
locate the HPI18LP under a stage. The back
input panel is located on a recessed and
sloping panel intended to relieve the strain on
the input cable and also make it possible to
locate the sub cabinet against a wall.
Solid Build Construction
Built for a touring environment, the HPI18LP is
well suited to all professional applications.
Like all Quest products, it is “built tough for a
tough world”.
