greybar

B-52 ACT-SERIES subwoofers are the ultimate solution for low frequency sound reinforcement. These revolutionary active subs deliver up to 135dB of deep, rich, chest-pounding bass. The B-52 digital sub amplifier is powerful enough to drive an additional passive subwoofer. ACT-SERIES subwoofers eliminate the need for additional components such as rack-mount power amplifiers, electronic crossovers, compressor and limiters as this circuitry is built-in. Available in your choice of roadworthy black paint or black carpet finish with a tilt-back handle and 3” casters.

POWERS ADDITIONAL PASSIVE SUBWOOFER
B-52 active subwoofers (ACT-18 or ACT-18X) are designed to power an additional passive sub. The passive subwoofer (ACT-18S and ACT-18XS) has the same physical dimensions as the active models. Connecting the active subwoofer to an additional passive sub increases the amplifier’s available power output from 800 to 1200 watts.
