VIO S318

As for lower frequencies, the VIO series is completed by VIO S318 subwoofer, a one of a kind system both for its acoustic configuration and majestic output. Indeed, dBTechnologies succeded in designing an extraordinary powerful triple 18” woofer system while maximizing its frontal emission and extending lower frequencies.

VIO S318 is equipped with 3 18” bassreflex half-horn loaded woofers, configured in order to maximize frontal emission. The 3 voice coils are in facts mechanically aligned in order to achieve a perfect phase response.

The 3 DIGIPRO G3 amplifiers deliver a total 2700 W RMS power, allowing the system to reach up to 143dB SPL.

The system features an integrated delay module achieving up to 9.9 ms delay with 0,5 ms steps. The crossover module sets the low pass filter alongside with the highpass filter for the integrated crossover output. The system also features an attenuation control, a polarity switch and a RDNet port for remote control.

The high quality multiplex housing is reinforced with a robust polyurea finishing and equipped with 5 aluminium handles per side.

The dolly transport DO-VIOS318 allows to transport up to 3 subs simoultaneously, both on wheels or on lift track. As an alternative to the dolly, wheels can be mounted on the rear side of the cabinet.

Digipro® G3

System of digital amplification engineered by dBTechnologies.

Based on the previous Digipro projects, completely re-designed, lighter in weight and more efficient, new Heatsink, newest components which maximize the power with a lower consumption.

Opto-isolated Preamp

The floating audio input design grants a digital optical isolation between earth ground from the mains and the audio ground flowing into the Preamplifier board.

This galvanic isolation greatly improves resistance to interferences and any unwanted buzzing and noises.

RDNet

Digital net for bi-directional control of connected devices.
The acronym RDNet originates from the development, on behalf of RCF and dBTechnologies, of a universal network which allows adjustments in real time and supervision of all the connected systems, using cables based on ethernet cat 5 wires.
With the specific software and the interfaces control 2 and control 8, a complete command of the acoustic system will be possible allowing real time supervision on each electrical component of the various speakers.

RDNet allows you to:
Monitor levels, limiters, and temperatures
Select system presets
Configure setups off-line
Mute units
Group modules and assigning group EQ, delay and phase
Test individual components
Automatically address system components
Tap into LAN and USB interfaces
Extend the network via wireless LAN access points.
