A sensational double woofer
The TP218/1600 MKIII, a passive subwoofer from the box pro, is equipped with two woofers, and not small ones either. For a model in this price range to have two woofers as standard will be music to the ears of all its listeners – and it also explains the difference in price between the MKIII shown here and the comparable the box pro Achat 118 Bass. The 18" woofers of the MKIII also come in much larger than the 12" ones fitted in Thomann's the box pro Achat 212H-SUB. And when the TP218/1600 MKIII's extraordinary power handling capacity is also factored in, the value for money on offer here should be crystal clear. This low-end specialist can be easily combined with a whole host of full-range systems, fitted as it is with all the standard connections.
Stable flexibility, flexible stability
The box pro TP218/1600 MkIII can be wired up with either twin-core or four-core speaker cables, which carry the signal for the tops on either the first or second pair of wires. In either case, a suitable amp is required to operate the subwoofer. Before connecting, the user simply needs to turn the cover of the parallel-wired socket pairs to reveal the desired operating mode. The speaker twist sockets are one of the few moving parts in an immensely robust enclosure, which also has a sturdy steel grille mounted on the front. Rubber feet below, and the matching recesses above, are provided for stacking, and other mounting options can be quickly realised with the appropriate accessories, all of which are sold separately. Inside, the 18" speakers of this model, which has an impedance of 4 ohms, offer a power handling capacity of 1600W (AES) in a frequency range of 34 to 150Hz.
For pros who go low
The box pro TP218/1600 MKIII subwoofer generates a professional-level bass response with its two large woofers, and thanks to its flexible connections, the MKIII is a good way of expanding an existing sound system. Equally, its flexibility will increase its viability for the rental segment. Event organisers who only need sub-bass occasionally, or bands who tour with their own PA, can easily stack multiple cabinets thanks to the feet and recesses. Optional accessories are in turn also widely available for club owners who want to install their speakers permanently.

Expandable variety
With the appropriate adapter bolts, which are available separately, flanges can be screwed into the threads provided on the box pro TP218/1600 MkIII speaker cabinet. Alternatively, there is a set of wheels with both braked and unbraked castors for easy mobility on tour, or when covering long distances in sprawling convention centres. To protect the MKIII against dust and moisture in rarely used multifunctional rooms, or to keep off the everyday wind and weather of touring, a cover is advisable: The Thomann Cover Pro TP218/1600 MKII, made of water-repellent nylon, was tailor-made for this very purpose.
