Wavefront W8S Hybrid™ Subwoofer
A2.1Introduction
The Martin Audio Wavefront W8S Hybrid™ Subwoofer combines a horn-loaded 15"
driver with a ported 18" high-excursion direct radiator. This powerful combination
gives the W8S the characteristic punch of a horn-loaded system with the low
frequency bass extension of a reflex enclosure.
The W8S is a light weight system in a trapezoidal cabinet. It has the same footprint as
the W8 3-way system and has been engineered to extend the Wavefront W8's
performance to below 40Hz.
Like all flown Wavefront products, the W8S is fitted with MAN load-certified flying
points and is designed to comply with the 12:1 safety factor specified by the German
VBG70 standard when used with compatible 12:1 flying flying systems. One important
advantage of the MAN flying system is that inter-cabinet connections place a minimal
load on the cabinets and, being external, can be load certified and inspected
independently.
