Product description
The BQ211 is a quarter-wave loaded subwoofer system, extending the low frequency response of Alcons’ pro-ribbon systems, in both permanent and portable applications. Featuring a state-of-the-art 21” Neodymium transducer, this subwoofer is designed to offer maximum, prolonged high impact SPL performance from a relative small footprint.
For this, the latest materials and innovations have been applied: A very large displacement transducer with all-carbon fiber cone + dust cap, 5.3” voice-coil with vented triple-spider frame plus optimized low resistance impedance, and port-vented magnet structure to maximally reduce power compression.
The extensively internally-braced cabinet features features double-tuned, high-pressure loading, through a rounded 236mm/9.3” diameter low-tuned bass-reflex vent and a wide, high-tuned quarter wave tunnel. This provides optimised breathing at high SPLs, yet keeping the total system weight to a minimum.
Slider feet on cabinet bottom and side enable stacking of multiple BQ211’s into vertical LF arrays: The additional front-positioned NL4 connector caters for easy “reverse connection” in cardioid arrays.
The BQ211 is driven and controlled by the ALC amplified loudspeaker controller, for maximum sound quality and output power with long-term operation reliability. The integrated factory presets in the drive processor of the ALC offer gain, phase and filtering matching with all Alcons top systems.
The BQ211 is SIS™ pre-wired: Through the Signal Integrity Sensing circuit of the ALC, the cable-length and connector resistance between the BQ211 and ALC is dynamically compensated (system damping factor 10.000), further reducing distortion, while increasing response accuracy.
The BQ211 is available in road-version and installation (“i”) version, without handles and wheel dolly board. Through the Architect Color Option™ program, the BQ211i can be finished in any RAL™ color.
