SSOUNDS XTO S218
Módulo de subgraves de doble 18″ del sistema XTO, graves masivos y definidos con configuración lista para cardioide, para giras y estadios.
El XTO S218 es el módulo de subgraves de doble 18″ del sistema XTO, un diseño de suelo de banda pasante que proporciona la base de frecuencias graves que exigen las producciones de gran formato, llegando hasta 20 Hz con altavoces de bobina de 5″. Despliegue en formaciones cardioides para mantener la energía fuera del escenario y de la parte trasera, con el mismo sistema de asas y carros que el resto del sistema. Es el módulo que ancla un diseño de estadio bajo los elementos insignia.
Part of the XTO System
Dual-18 floor subwoofer for large-format and stadium work.
XTO stands for Xtended Touring Output. The large-format touring platform: the elements built for the longest throws and the highest output in the range, rigged and amplified as one system.
Key features
- Bandpass dual-18″ with 5″ voice-coil drivers
- 20 Hz low-frequency reach and 143 dB peak SPL
- Steerable cardioid arrays keep energy off the stage and out of the back
- Fly track and caster dolly shared across the XTO touring inventory
- 18 mm Baltic birch with Polyurea finish
- CardioSteer presets steer low-frequency energy off the stage

Physical
Measurement conditions
- Maximum SPL is the peak level at 1 m, driven with pink noise at crest factor 4 to the clipping point of the recommended amplifier, with the SSOUNDS system preset applied. Full-range enclosures are specified under free-field conditions; figures marked half-space are specified over a reflecting plane, the condition subwoofers are deployed in, which adds approximately 6 dB.
- Frequency response is specified on axis at 1 m in a free field. The tolerance the figure is referenced to is stated alongside it; where no tolerance is given, the figure is the −6 dB bandwidth.
- Sensitivity is specified at 1 W into the nominal impedance at 1 m on axis, averaged across the pass band of the enclosure.
- Recommended amplifier power is the amplifier output SSOUNDS specifies for this enclosure, driven with the SSOUNDS system preset. It guides amplifier selection and is not an AES power-handling rating for the transducers.
- Nominal impedance is the manufacturer's rating for amplifier load calculation; minimum impedance across the operating band may be lower.
- Net weight excludes packaging, flight case, accessories and optional rigging hardware.
- Dimensions are stated in millimetres and exclude protruding rigging hardware, handles and connector panels unless noted.
- All figures are typical values for production units specified under the conditions above. Individual units may vary within published tolerances.
Directivity
Directivity computed by the SSOUNDS system prediction engine from this product's driver complement, the same dataset the printed data sheet uses. 1/24-octave band-power resolution; values are dB relative to on-axis.
System operation
Recommended: SSOUNDS D24X, one channel per XTO S218 (4 Ω) with the S218 preset loaded. Cardioid presets are supplied for three- and four-box arrays.
