Description
The Peavey Low Rider 18 is a raw subwoofer driver for high-output bass systems built around a compatible enclosure and external amplifier. Its 18-inch Kevlar-impregnated cone uses an asymmetrical-M surround, while a long 4-inch copper-ribbon voice coil supports the design’s extended excursion. Ratings of 800W continuous and 1,600W program give the electrical handling limits; enclosure tuning and signal filtering still determine how that capacity can be used. The replaceable basket provides a service option for the moving assembly without automatically replacing a healthy magnet structure.
