Overview
The Adamson CS118 is the powered companion subwoofer to the CS7 and CS7p. A lightweight, long excursion 18 inch ND18-S Kevlar neodymium driver with a 4 inch voice coil sits in a front loaded enclosure, driven by a 3000 W onboard Class-D amplifier.
Like the rest of the CS Series it runs on Adamson's network platform with redundant Milan networking and an analogue XLR input and output, and is controlled and monitored in Adamson's software. It suits venues, theatres, churches and hire stock running CS7 or CS7p tops.

Forefront Tip
The built in M20 thread makes a CS118 with a CS7p on a pole a quick setup for smaller rooms. For bigger shows, group the subs together and use a cardioid arrangement so the low end stays out of the stage and microphones.
