Help me ID this driver

Racket Scientist · 3rd October 2010, 01:53 AM

I just picked up a pair of pro audio subs from my local pawn emporium at what I think is a very good price. They're Sound Bridge S3 s118sw. They're trapezoidal, sealed birch ply with one 18" driver, nicely braced and with good internal stuffing. The drivers have the Electrovoice EV on the duscap, as well as the squatty, massive magnet structure typical of EV. There aren't any other markings on the back I can see except the manufacturer date code. Any thoughts on which these are and where I can get some specs?

Sound Bridge Acoustic Labs seems a good place to start

Thanks, I looked over the site and couldn't get any specifics on the driver. I also tried to call them last week and no one answered.

Bummer, Rockford-Fosgate hasn't answered my email either. 'Customer no service' seems to be the norm these days.

Anyway, measure its specs and compare to EV drivers if there's no markings on it such as diaphragm # to cross reference at EV.
