Description
FINEO FO S218
Deeper, louder, stronger. With its two 18″ woofers with 3″ voice coils, the FO S218 is the most powerful subwoofer in the series and offers the deepest frequency response. The ideal complement for the FO 12 and FO 15 in stereo, 2.1 or surround systems. The subwoofer can be placed upright or on its side and offers a milled cable duct to the bottom, left and right for cable routing close to the wall. The front is protected by a full-surface grille, which is supported by solid reinforcements on the inside. This makes the FO S218 suitable not only for use in sports venues (for which a ball-impact resistance certificate in line with DIN 18032-3 is provided), but also for “wild” club and concert environments.
FINEO is the new HK Audio product family for the daily business of professional indoor fixed installations. FINEO offers many detailed solutions, is uncomplicated to use with high sound quality, solid mounting accessories and easy integration.
Based on feedback from installation professionals with many years of experience, many product features were implemented for FINEO that guarantee easy integration in practice. The broad product family consists of five passive Mid/High-units and five subwoofers, available in black and white as standard. Sophisticated and extensive accessories offer simple and safe solutions for all conceivable installation scenarios.
New formats, maximum flexibility
The FINEO loudspeaker series, rethought from the ground up, offers features and formats that are particularly important and in demand for modern installations. Like the coaxial 5″/1″ compact speaker FO 5 and the flyable subwoofers FO S112 F and FO S118 F. The powerful, rotatable tweeters are familiar from the professional touring mid/high unit CONTOUR CX 8.
Easy integration and comprehensive documentation
A standardised VESA hole pattern is available as standard on the rear of all FINEO Mid/High-units. Inside the enclosure, this is supported by generous steel reinforcements. In addition to the new, sophisticated FINEO accessories, installation material from third-party suppliers can also be used, which greatly accelerates and facilitates integration into existing systems.
DSP presets for Lab.gruppen IPX and LEA Professional as well as filter sheets for many other DSP platforms are available in the download area. Simulation data in GLL format for EASE and EASE FOCUS 3 are also available, as well as detailed installation instructions, tender documents and many other details on all products.
Accessories – comprehensive, clever, robust and safe
The FINEO series offers the right accessories for the most diverse, even unusual, application scenarios. From finely adjustable U-brackets to 360° brackets, pan and tilt brackets to tripod mounts and L-brackets – there are hardly any limits to the ideas. And all this with maximum safety, perfectly tailored to the FINEO speakers. The VESA hole pattern on each top unit means that installation material from any third-party manufacturer can also be used.
Ball impact-proof
All FINEO speakers are ball impact-proof as standard. They thus meet the strict requirements of the German standard for sports facilities (DIN 18032-3). The enclosures are extremely robustly built. Massive protective grilles and additional steel reinforcements cope with even the greatest mechanical demands.
