SBLA181S

18", Passive Subwoofer System
The next generation of compact active line arrays is here. Sound Barrier has been relentless in its search for a scalable & extraordinarily powerful system with unparalleled audio quality while maintaining and improving price points without sacrificing performance. With its intelligent design, state-of-the-arttechnology, and versatility, the CORE series is bound to become an audio engineer’s dream system. 
Thinking Outside The Box
The state of the art Class D digital amplifier designed for the CORE102A and CORE82A sets a new industry benchmark in audio performance, efficiency and flexibility. The class D amplifiers were specifically designed to power not only the active loudspeaker that it is built-in to but it is specifically designed to drive its corresponding passive cabinet. This is made possible by integrating parallel speaker out connector to an extremely powerful, efficient & reliable Class “D” amplifier. This simple yet innovative concept design can save users up to 60% on the upfront cost an active line array system and as a bonus, lowers the total system weight.
 
Amplification & Processing
Designed to meet different applications, the CORE series uses to two different amplifiers modules that provide an output power of 1000W (CORE82A) and 1600W (CORE102A, CORE8218SA, CORE10218SA) @ 4Ω respectively. In addition, the amplifier offers a full set of value added features such as:
 
Ultra High Power
CORE series active cabinets amplifier compact modules ranging from 1000W (CORE82A), 1500W (All Subwoofers),and 1600W (CORE102A).

Unmatched Audio Specifications
Thanks to Class-D technology, the CORE series amplifier modules deliver unmatched audio specifications in the pro audio industry including the modules with the highest dynamic range and the lowest distortion in the pro audio industry.

Universal Voltage
CORE Series amplifier’s provides universal mains operation for 120 V and 230 V. The power supply is regulated to deliver consistent power world-wide.

Full Protection
CORE Series amplifier modules are fully self-protected. All relevant protection features have been implemented individually for the SMPS and for each amplifier channel inclduding efficient heat dissipation system, integrated cooling fans and Over- Heat protection. Moreover the Clip/Limiter function provides output monitoring to prevent speaker damage with gentle gain reduction at clip threshold.

Safety Approved - EMC Complaint
Safety approved and verified for EMC compliance.


Readouts for DSP / Network
In addition to the conventional readouts and auxiliary power, CORE modules offer advanced real time readouts for fully interfacing to the NUCLEUS FIR and network solutions. Sophisticated loudspeaker processor with a powerful 96 kHz 24 bit DSP Engine and high performance 24bit AD/DA converters are also included.

Onboard Loudspeaker Managment Software 
On board DSP and RS485 connection for monitoring and control via the state of the art NUCLEUS FIR loudspeaker management software. All setup parameters for input mixing, DSP features and the limiter setting are accessible by using the NUCLEUS FIR software.

Audio Optimization
Noise Gate, crossover filters, parametric EQs per input and output sections, RMS compressor, alignment delay and All-Pass filters, everything needed to optimize a self-powered loudspeaker.

Loudness & Noise Generator
Equipped with a Dynamic Loudness function and a Pink / White noise generator.

Nucleus FIR is a loudspeaker management software providing all of the features and flexibility required to drive and align the CORE series sound reinforcement systems. Incorporating traditional IIR X-over and parametric EQ functions in conjunction with revolutionary FIR modes, Nucleus FIR is one of the most flexible, advanced yet user friendly loudspeaker management software in the world. The NUCLEUS FIR software and integrated applications transforms the CORE series sound reinforcement system from an active line array system into a transcendent and revolutionary piece of audio technology no professional should be without.  
 
FIR X-OVER
Provides users with a simple yet extensive crossover module that allows users to set the tap number from 256 to 512 with a latency of 5.3ms. The user can choose between the following FIR Window types:

Rectangular, Keiser, Sync, Hanning, Hamming, Blackman, Blackman-Harris, Blacman-Nuttall, Nuttal, Keiser-Bessel, and Sine.

FIR PEQ
The parametric equalization is a basic FIR module allowing users to set the taps number from 768 to 928, with a latency from 8ms up to 9.6ms. Users can select filter types as Bell or Shelving, and up to a 28 band EQ. The user can set the gain (±12dB), Cut / Center Frequency (250Hz-20kHz), and the Q (0.5, 5). 
FIR WIZARD
Revolutionary Phase Correction Tool
Nucleus FIR features the FIR Phase Wizard, a step by step FIR system phase correction mode that maximizes the performance of the CORE series for efficiency and potency by phase correcting and adapting the system to its surrounding environment/ venue. The procedure only requires an ASIO box (audio interface), measurement microphone and CORE series line array system. The software automatically detects the ASIO box and measurement microphone when connected to the user’s PC.
 
EASY AS 1 - 2 - 3
Once the PC is connected to the CORE series system (via a RS485), the FIR Phase Wizard step by step instructions will guide user from IR measurement to FIR calculation. The Phase Wizard automatically processes measures and analyzes the test signal produced by the CORE system to allow for the systems environmental phase correction. Once the system’s environmental phase correction is complete, users can save the data onto their PC as an FIR Phase Wizard File and / or load onto the CORE series system cabinets. The FIR Wizard software and integrated applications transforms the CORE series sound reinforcement system from an active line array system into a transcendent and revolutionary piece of audio technology.
