R-18i
  
The all new Radia R-18i loudspeaker from BG is a versatile on-wall loudspeaker 
that utilizes the company’s patented planar ribbon technology in a completely unique 
way. A two-way design, this model features both a 4” woofer and 4” passive radiator 
coupled with BG’s patented Neo8 PDR wideband planar ribbon driver. The R-18i is easy  
to drive and compatible with any high-quality amplifier or a/v receiver.
The R-18i can be used for a wide variety of audio/video applications around the home 
from multi-room and multi-channel audio to video and home theater. In fact, the R-18i  
is particularly well-suited for surround sound in high-quality home theater systems.  
The patent-pending design can easily and quickly provide a choice of a direct or diffuse 
sound field from a single wideband planar driver via the concealed Dispersion Pattern 
Control (DPC) knob, located conveniently on the top panel.
Rotating the DPC knob, the user can simply change the speaker’s sound dispersion  
pattern to the desired mode – direct or diffuse. Direct mode would typically be  
selected for music. Diffuse, which generates virtually no direct energy toward the  
listener, is ideal for home theater surround sound. This unique feature makes the  
Radia R-18i an invaluable solution in any system where rear channel speakers need  
to be placed close to a primary listening position.
