The ZXT woofer series, which includes the Hifonics Zeus Extreme ZXT18D2 18" (46cm) subwoofer, is equipped with vertical elements made of "Reinforced-Structure-Array" surrounds and hints at how much travel the carbon-reinforced membranes can achieve. These remain rock solid and are even comparatively lightweight thanks to a triple sandwich construction. To ensure that the membranes can fully utilize their travel, they are guided by triple Nomex spiders as if on rails. This ensures that the membranes do not get misaligned even under extreme performance.

Thermally, the Zeus subwoofers are also well-equipped: The 10-inch woofer already uses 76 mm large voice coils, and the 12-inch model even features gigantic 100 mm voice coils. With a winding height of 58 mm, the membranes can achieve a linear stroke of +/- 23 mm. The voice coil is made from special pi-CCAR flat wire, which is an aluminum flat wire with a copper coating that saves weight and is heat-resistant up to 240 degrees. All in all, these are ingredients that impressively demonstrate the exceptional quality of the woofers. Those looking for ultimate level woofers cannot overlook the Zeus Extreme ZXT series.

The Zeus Extreme ZXT18D2 from Hifonics is an 18-inch subwoofer with a carbon composite diaphragm and an ultra-stiff RSA surround. It has a maximum power of 8000 W and an efficiency of 90 dB (2.83V/1m). The 100 mm dual voice coil is made of pi-CCAR voice coil wire, which is extremely heat resistant. The massive aluminum basket and triple magnet drive with 3 x 100 ounces ensure stable performance even at high volumes. With a design aimed at long-lasting performance, this subwoofer is ideal for applications with high level requirements.
The membrane of the Zeus Extreme ZXT18D2 by Hifonics is based on a triple sandwich construction that ensures both stability and lightness. The carbon-reinforced membranes provide exceptional excursion thanks to the "Reinforced-Structure-Array" design. This is supported by triple-layer Nomex spiders that guide the membrane precisely. This construction ensures that the membrane does not misalign even at extreme power levels and high volume. Especially if you enjoy listening to music with deep bass, you will appreciate the efficiency and precision of this technology.
The Zeus Extreme ZXT18D2 from Hifonics is equipped with a 100 mm voice coil made from a special pi-CCAR flat wire, consisting of aluminum with a copper coating. This technology ensures that the voice coil is heat-resistant up to 240 degrees Celsius, keeping thermal stress minimal even under intense use. The winding height of 58 mm allows for a linear excursion of +/- 23 mm, which is particularly crucial for precise bass reproduction. These components ensure that the woofer operates reliably under demanding conditions and is not at risk of overheating.
The triple-magnet drive of the Zeus Extreme ZXT18D2 uses three 100-ounce magnets that work together to provide powerful and stable drive for the diaphragm. This design increases the efficiency of the woofer operation, resulting in more powerful, precise, and consistent bass frequencies. This energy-efficient technology allows for clear and distortion-free sound even under high power demands. Especially in sound systems that need to reach high levels, this innovative drive is a significant advantage.
The installation of the Hifonics Zeus Extreme ZXT18D2 requires precise placement and consideration of the dimensions with a diameter of 428 mm and a mounting depth of 278 mm. During installation, it must be ensured that the subwoofer is mounted in a housing with sufficient volume for the power requirements and the desired frequency response. The use of chrome T-plates with pole core drilling facilitates wiring and optimizes thermal dissipation. Precise wiring is necessary to correctly utilize the 2+2 Ohm impedance. Pay attention to the stability of the housing to avoid vibration noises at high volumes.
The Zeus Extreme ZXT18D2 is versatile in various audio systems due to its 2+2 Ohm dual voice coil. The compact design size with generous excursion allows for use in both larger and compact enclosures, provided the required installation depth is available. The high power capacity makes it particularly compatible with devices that offer high amplification levels. The 90 dB sensitivity ensures efficient drive, favoring its integrated use in more demanding hi-fi systems. As long as the dimensions of the subwoofer meet the requirements, this subwoofer can be smoothly integrated into various systems.
The 100 mm dual voice coil of the Zeus Extreme ZXT18D2 is made of pi-CCAR flat wire, which significantly contributes to its high thermal load capacity. This technology allows for a linear excursion of +/- 30 mm, protecting against deformations and distortions even at maximum bass loads. The construction of aluminum flat wire with a copper coating ensures minimal weight combined with excellent heat dissipation. This voice coil option not only ensures thermal robustness but also supports the precise reproduction of deep bass tones and loud passages without loss of quality – ideal for enthusiasts of powerful sound effects.
The Zeus Extreme ZXT18D2 is equipped with a massive aluminum basket known for its structural stability and vibration resistance. In combination with reinforced "Reinforced-Structure-Array" ribs and carbon-reinforced membranes, it allows for high load capacity even at increased volume. The triple-magnet drive ensures uniform power transfer and prevents membrane distortion. Nomex spiders dampen and guide the membrane in parallel. Each of these combined features enhances performance at high levels and ensures audible clarity even in extremely dynamic bass passages.
The carbon composite membrane of the Zeus Extreme ZXT18D2 offers several advantages: extremely high stiffness at low weight thanks to the carbon-reinforced structure. This promotes precise and efficient transmission even at high volumes. The triple sandwich construction integrates durability with flexibility and allows for distortion-free sound. Additionally, the membrane complements the RSA surrounds perfectly for maximum control over the excursion. Changes due to thermal expansion or mechanical stress are minimized, which enhances the long-term performance and integrity of the subwoofer.
The blue magnet protector of the Zeus Extreme ZXT18D2 protects the magnetic components from damage and external influences. This protective device minimizes the risk of magnetic shifts and mechanical shocks that could impair sound quality. The chrome T-plate with pole core drilling also stabilizes the magnetic flow and optimizes heat exchange. In total, these features support consistent performance of the subwoofer even at full load and help ensure the longevity of the sensitive construction components. They ensure that the magnetics of the device maintain integral stability.
