The EAW SB1000zR is a high-performance, active subwoofer designed to deliver powerful and precise low-frequency reinforcement for professional touring and large-scale fixed installations. As part of EAW's SB Series, it integrates a high-output 18-inch driver with a dedicated, high-power amplifier and advanced digital signal processing (DSP) within a single, rugged enclosure. This active design eliminates the need for external amplifiers and system processors, streamlining setup and ensuring that the subwoofer operates exactly as engineered by the manufacturer. The built-in DSP provides critical functions such as precise crossover filtering, equalization, phase alignment, and sophisticated limiting to protect the driver and optimize performance for the specific application.

Housed in a roadworthy Baltic birch plywood cabinet with extensive internal bracing, the SB1000zR is built to withstand the demands of touring while minimizing unwanted resonance. Its thoughtful design includes integrated rigging points and handles for safe and versatile deployment, whether ground-stacked, flown, or arrayed with other enclosures. The subwoofer's ported (bass-reflex) design is tuned to extend low-frequency response and maximize efficiency, delivering the deep, impactful bass required for modern music, live events, and cinematic experiences. With comprehensive control accessible via software, sound engineers can fine-tune the subwoofer's response to perfectly match the main loudspeaker system and adapt to venue acoustics.

By combining a powerful driver, robust amplification, and intelligent processing in a single reliable package, the EAW SB1000zR provides a complete, plug-and-play low-frequency solution. It empowers audio professionals to achieve consistent, high-fidelity bass reproduction with reduced system complexity, making it an ideal choice for rental companies, touring sound providers, and high-end installations where reliability, output, and sonic accuracy are paramount.
