DESCRIPTION
EAW SB subwoofers are premium products designed for the most
demanding professional applications. A broad range of capabilities
and sizes provide designers with selections that can be specifically
matched to the application. Top quality drivers, engineered by EAW,
supply the highest output and best sonic performance possible for a
given form factor. All SB models are direct radiating, with optimally
tuned, vented enclosures. SB subwoofers are the choice where
the absolute best sonic performance, highest reliability, and most
robust physical construction are required.
The SB1002 is a large-format, high-output subwoofer system
that can be ground-stacked or easily flown via an integral rigging
system, making it ideal for a wide range of live and installed sound
applications. It offers the fatter-sounding output of dual 18-inch cone
drivers, with the mounting of these drivers maximizing cone area
and minimizing front area, providing the acoustical performance
and physical configuration well suited for creating large subwoofer
arrays. The drivers are designed specifically for the SB1002, offering
very large (4.5-inch) voice coils as well as powerful neodymium
magnet structures that also reduce weight.
The SB1002 is designed to be used with sophisticated digital signal
processing to optimize the LF response. EAW UX and MX Series
processors are recommended for the required crossover and
equalization.
The rigging system, similar to that of EAW’s popular KF760 Series
line arrays, features a fast, easy-to-use two-point approach that
accommodates flown arrays of up to 12 SB1002 units. A handle
on the rear upper corner of the SB1002 enclosure provides added
guidance and convenient “push-pull” ability in the flying process.
Applications include large live music and dance clubs, houses
of worship, performing arts/auditoriums, corporate events, and
concert touring.
Six Year Warranty.
