Electro-Voice ELX200-18SP 18" 1200W Powered Subwoofer

The Electro-Voice ELX200-18SP is a high-output, powered 18-inch subwoofer engineered to deliver substantial low-frequency impact for live sound, DJ performances, and installed applications where deep, powerful bass is essential. This active enclosure pairs a high-performance 18-inch driver with a robust 1200-watt Class-D amplifier, integrated within a durable, plywood cabinet optimized for bass reinforcement. The onboard DSP provides precise control over the subwoofer's performance, including crossover filtering, system equalization, and comprehensive speaker protection limiting, ensuring optimal integration with main loudspeakers and reliable operation even at high volume levels. This self-contained design simplifies the audio chain by eliminating the need for external amplifiers and processors, making setup faster and more straightforward.

Constructed for the rigors of professional use, the cabinet is built from 18mm plywood with a rugged, textured finish and features ergonomic handles and robust corners for safe and easy transport. The front panel offers intuitive controls for level adjustment, a defeatable low-pass filter, and polarity inversion to optimize system phase alignment. Flexible connectivity includes balanced XLR and 1/4-inch inputs, as well as XLR thru outputs with a selectable high-pass filter for seamlessly sending a processed signal to the main speakers. Its trapezoidal shape allows for versatile placement, including ground-stacking, and provides the option to fly the cabinet using compatible rigging hardware for permanent installations.

Sonic performance is defined by its ability to produce exceptionally deep, articulate bass with high maximum sound pressure levels, providing the foundational low-end energy required for modern music genres and high-impact sound reinforcement. The subwoofer's efficiency and integrated processing allow it to deliver consistent, punchy bass response while safeguarding the driver from overload. As a powerful and reliable component in a professional audio system, the ELX200-18SP offers performers, DJs, and installers a potent tool for enhancing the low-frequency experience, ensuring that every beat and bass note is felt with authority and clarity.
