Important Note

Watts: The guaranteed long term power rating throughout the usable frequency range of the speaker.

(Translation: the speaker will operate continuously at any frequency within the speakers specified frequency range when driven at this power. The "Watts" rating is similar to RMS, but is really more indicative of long term thermal capability.)

Music Program: The speaker will safely and reliably handle the varying frequencies of musical content at this power rating. The "Music Program" rating is more indicative of what you can expect in the real world with the speaker operating within the appropriate enclosure reproducing music or vocal audio program.

4.5 out of 5 (65 ratings) Rate and Review This Product

Read 2 Eminence Kilomax 18 Bass Speaker (1250 Watts, 18") Reviews

"Awesome if you power it correctly!"

Sound: I jsut reloaded my Yorkville Elite 2 x 18 subs with these drivers which have been in operation for about a month now. In a word...awesome. These monsters need power though. In fact, to push them properly I use the QSC RMX2450 power amp in bridged mono 2500 watts @ 4 ohms. You can barely stand in front of these now. Feature: All PRO speakers should have these binding post connectors. Period. Value: Have you seen the cost of a JBL driver rated at half the power? Manufacturer Support: The Eminence people are great to deal with. Very helpful because they know their products. The Wow Factor: Because of the obvious craftsmanship and of course the heat sink, this is by far the most appealing (visually) woofer out there.
