Cerwin-Vega! products are continually improved. All specifications are therefore subject to change without notice.

The CVi-218S (Contra-Sub) is a portable, dual eighteen inch dedicated 
subwoofer system designed to extend and supplement the low frequency 
extension of CVi full range systems in live music and playback applications. 
The CVi-218S features two high power, cast frame eighteen inch transducers 
with 3” voice coils for extended use during high SPL applications. Steel 
handles and pole mount cup are also featured for use as a base for pole 
mounted full range systems. This configuration allows the two drivers to work 
together in the same acoustic space to reduce distortion components caused 
by driver mechanical non-linearity when the system is driven at high levels.  
The result is cleaner, smoother low frequency reinforcement at higher SPL 
levels.
