Overview

Adire Audio ADKA18D2 18" Kali Subwoofer DVC 2x2 Ohm

Introducing Adire Audio's Kali Series subwoofer—an ultra-high-excursion powerhouse with groundbreaking 4” coil technology. Following Adire Audio's move to California, they aimed to push the boundaries of XBL^2 motor technology, creating a subwoofer with unmatched precision and strength.

The Kali is equipped with a massive dual stack of 250mm Y35 ferrite magnets, offering 40mm of linear excursion, with inductance rings embedded throughout the FEA-optimized motor structure and magnetic gap for an ultra-strong, ultra-linear motor structure. With a proprietary 10” dual progressive roll spider crafted from a durable phenolic resin-impregnated Nomex poly-cotton blend, the Kali ensures consistent, linear excursion even in high-demand applications.

Built rugged, the Kali features 4 AWG push-pin terminals, a non-pressed kraft pulp hybrid fiber cone, and a multi-layer foam surround, complete with a standard carbon fiber dust cap for enhanced rigidity. CNC-machined gap venting pairs with a 4” 4-layer flat-wound aluminum voice coil to allow the Kali to reach 3,000 watts RMS, maintaining clean, powerful performance for extreme car audio, home audio, and professional audio applications. With power handling up to 3,000+ watts, the Kali delivers intense, eye-rattling low-end with precision and durability, making it the ultimate choice for those who demand linear, powerful bass in any setup.
