Thank you for purchasing a Contractor Series CS-18
Professional Subwoofer from Fender
®
Pro Audio. We
are sure you will find it both a unique and effective
sound reinforcement product, providing years of
trouble-free service.
Designed for the most demanding sound
contracting requirements, the cabinet’s internal
wood bracing helps eliminate side wall movement.
This design results in low distortion, very high power
handling and very high SPL output. Likewise, large
ports on the CS-18 and cabinet prevent
compression at high SPL due to large exit velocities.
Housed in a sanded unfinished cabinet, the CS-18
offers the flexibility of painting and varnishing the
cabinet to your specifications. Also, the CS-18 is
equipped with flypoints to attach rigging hardware
for flying applications. By using the Fender
®
RigSafe
rigging and flying hardware system, the
CS-18 can be safely suspended overhead.
Likewise, the RigSafe
system is compatible with
both the JBL S.A.F.E.
and ATM Fly-Ware
components. With its trapezoidal shape, the CS-18
fits well in a tight cluster with either the CS-12 or
CS-15 enclosures. When used in this configuration,
the CS-18 effectively reproduces the low-end
frequencies; the CS-12 or CS-15 is then used as a
mid-high cabinet.
CAUTION: Almost all speakers produce strong
magnetic fields which may interfere with the
normal operation of nearby electronic devices,
including televisions and computer video
monitors. To reduce or eliminate interference,
increase the distance between this product and
other nearby electronic devies.
