BASSO24t F400 Dual-12 Inch Compact Band-Pass Multipurpose Subwoofer

Many key factors are to be considered when configuring the subwoofer section of a loudspeaker system to perfectly match each application: size/weight, logistic and operational setups, SPL needs, LF extension, cost limitations, as well as sound engineer preferences (depending on different the type and size of the event) or audio program
characteristics and regional style taste for subwoofer mixes.
BASSO Series models allow the user to choose the most adequate subwoofer for any given situation from within a family of products with common finish, design solutions and performance philosophy as well as shared rigging and transport accessories.
BASSO24t F400 is a dual 12” band-pass subwoofer with a very shallowform factor and excellent power-density that make this loudspeaker a versatile tool for any small, unobtrusive installed sound reinforcement and portable FOH applications to more powerful, medium-sized configurations for Touring and Rental companies and theatre and club installations.

SYSTEM CONFIGURATION AND SETTINGS

BASSO 24t F400 back panel is fitted with a pair of Neutrik NL-4 connectors in parallel for straightforward, flexible installation setup.
