enclosure. Recessed steel handles
on either side provide portability.
A pole guide for support of a
pole-mounted, high-pass enclosure
is provided on one side of the SP

the opposite side for horizontal use.
Rubber feet and corner casters on
the bottom and a corner handle on

Inputs are at the rear of the enclosure
and consist of two 1/4" jacks, one
four-pin twist lock connector and
one Neutrik Speakon switching jack.
The enclosure input is configurable,
with the default being 4 ohms with
both drivers in parallel when using
the parallel inputs. A dual-woofer 2
x 8 ohm configuration is available
through the switching Neutrik jack,
which disconnects the 4 ohm inputs
and provides separate inputs to the
woofers when used. This ingenious
input design provides maximum
flexibility for single- or dual-amplifier
operation, without having to
manually rewire the enclosure.

As the SP 218BX does not include a
passive subwoofer crossover, input
should be electronically filtered for
subwoofer applications. In addition,
for high power operation, a high-pass
filter set at 35 to 40 Hz and 12 to 24
dB Butterworth should be used to
improve performance and reliability.

Frequency response
This measurement is useful in
determining how accurately a given
unit reproduces an input signal. The
frequency response of the SP 218BX
is measured at a distance of 1 meter
using a 1 watt (into the nominal
impedance) swept-sine input signal
in an anechoic environment. As
shown in figure 1, the SP 218BX
produces a smooth frequency
response from 51 Hz to 300 Hz.

Power handling
There are many different approaches
to power handling ratings. Peavey
rates this loudspeaker system’s
power handling using a modified
form of the AES Standard 2-1984.
Using 40 Hz to 400 Hz pink noise
with peaks of four times the RMS
level, this strenuous test signal
assures the user that every portion
of this system can withstand today’s
high technology music. This rating is
contingent upon having a minimum
of 3 dB available amplifier headroom.

Harmonic distortion
Second and third harmonic
distortions vs. frequency are plotted
in figures 3 and 4 for two power
levels, ten percent (10%) of rated
input power and either one percent
(1%) of rated input power or 1 Watt,
whichever is greater. Distortion is
read from the graph as the difference
between the fundamental signal
(frequency response) and the desired
harmonic. For example, a distortion
curve that is down 40 dB from the
fundamental is equivalent to 1%
distortion.
