4645C 18" High-Quality Cinema Subwoofer 800W Black

The JBL 4645C is a high-quality subwoofer system, featuring a technologically advanced 460 mm (18 in) low frequency transducer mounted in a direct radiator, bass-reflex enclosure for smooth response to the lowest audible frequencies. The 4645C is ideal for low frequency augmentation of either analog or digital soundtracks in motion picture theatres and for general sound reinforcement applications. The 2242H transducer utilizes the patented Vented Gap Cooling (VGC) process*, which pumps air through the magnetic gap and directly over and around the voice coil, providing immediate heat transfer and a reduction in operating temperature. This increases power handling while reducing power compression.

The 2242H utilizes a rugged 100 mm (4 in) diameter voice coil and incorporates a large motor structure with a pole piece that extends both above and below the top plate to improve gap flux symmetry and increase thermal conductivity. This magnet structure and the use of a voice coil with one-third more exposed area than in former designs, provides the 2242H with very effective heat sinking, enabling the system to carry an 800 watt continuous AES pink noise power rating.
