The specialist's opinion
The Electro-Voice EKX-18SP is an active subwoofer designed by the Electro-Voice brand to deliver powerful, deep and controlled bass in professional Sound systems.
This EKX Series model combines high-performance amplification, advanced DSP and rugged design to meet the demands of DJs, concerts and live events.
A powerful 18-inch active subwoofer
The Electro-Voice EKX-18SP features a high-sensitivity 18-inch Speaker designed by EV. Its Class-D Amplifier delivers 1300 W of power, enabling a maximum sound pressure level of around 134 dB. This power guarantees deep, punchy bass with a frequency response of around 35 Hz to 180 Hz, ideal for demanding musical applications.
QuickSmart DSP and advanced control
The subwoofer incorporates the QuickSmart DSP with LCD display and intuitive single-button interface. It provides easy access to essential settings such as level, presets, low-pass filters (80 to 150 Hz) and system parameters. This processing guarantees rapid sound optimization according to environment and configuration.
Cardioid mode and Low optimization
The EKX-18SP features Cardioid Control technology, allowing bass to be directed towards the audience while reducing up to 35 dB at the rear when multiple subwoofers are used. This feature is particularly useful on stage to limit noise pollution and improve performer comfort.
Connectivity and system integration
The cabinet offers two XLR/jack combo inputs as well as two XLR link outputs for easy connection of speakers or other subwoofers. An M20 threaded socket allows the addition of a coupling bar to install a satellite speaker on top, facilitating the creation of a complete, balanced system.
Rugged construction and suitable transport
The 15mm multi-ply wood cabinet with EVCoat finish ensures excellent resistance to impact and touring conditions. The case features sturdy handles and a reinforced metal Chord chart. With a weight of around 32.8 kg, it remains relatively transportable for a professional 18" subwoofer.
A reliable solution for low frequencies
Thanks to its power, advanced DSP and robust design, the Electro-Voice EKX-18SP is an ideal solution for effectively boosting bass in a Sound system. It can be combined with EKX Series speakers such as the EKX-12P or EKX-15P to create a high-performance setup suitable for DJs, concerts and professional events.
