From Our Catalog
JBL JRX118S
The JRX118S is a 1x18 in. compact (passive) subwoofer, rated at 1400 watts peak power capacity and 350 watts continuous. It includes a newly designed JBL 18 in. woofer with a cast frame and 3 in. voice-coil.

About the JRX100 Series
JBL designed the new JRX100 series for cost-conscious musicians, DJs and other users of live sound reinforcement speakers. All full-range models feature Neutrik Speakon and 1/4 in. input connectors. JRX100 cabinets are constructed of carpet-covered, 3/4 in. MDF -- a material that is structurally and acoustically superior to the particleboard that is used by many competitive products. To minimize distortion, heavy gauge wire is used for inductors and SonicGuard high-frequency driver protection guards against damage caused by inadvertent overpowering of the system. The JRX115 and JRX112M's innovative, new dual-angle pole socket allows them to be mounted in either a conventional, vertical position, or with a 10 degree down angle. By aiming the speaker down, you get more even audience coverage and reduce the destructive acoustic reflections from walls. JBL constructs the JRX enclosures with advanced adhesives and closely mechanically spaced fasteners, not just glue. They use non-resonant, all metal handles, and an 18-gauge, full metal grille. All JRX100 models have passed the same 100-hour, full rated-power torture test that JBL high-end touring systems must survive.

"Lots of Power = Lots of Thump"
Feature:
Compact for an 18. Neutriks and 1/4" make most hook ups easy. Heavy steel grill. Needs corner protection. I add them...

Quality:
Needs factory corner protection.

Value:
Add lots of pwoer and they sound like subs costing 3x as much.

Desirability:
It's JBL!

Sound:
No better buy out there. The subs do require lots of power to sound good. JBL Pro recommends doubling the RMS power.. so a minimum of 700 watts per speaker. I'm using (2) mono block amps with 1060 watts into each sub and (4) JRX115s with 1060s watts on each pair of 115s Sounds Great. Headroom galore. I thought I might need two more but the 1060 watts on each 18" sub does it. Great low end fundamentals and no clipping. These subs just cruise along with that kind of power.

Ease of Use:
Plug in and go...

Support:
I've used them in the past. Not great but not horrible..

Overall:
Deep Low End...
