No longer available at zZounds
Reinforce your lows with this beefy 18" powered sub. Made to match PRX812 or PRX815 top boxes, the JBL PRX818XLF has on-board DSP controllable via Wi-Fi.

The JBL PRX818XLF extended low frequency subwoofer was designed and engineered to provide sub bass frequencies with accuracy and power. Used as a single sub in a sub/sat system or in multiples as part of a scalable, large format sound reinforcement system, the PRX818XLF performs with exceptional efficiency and control. The subs are stackable and light-weight ensuring quick set-ups and tear-downs. And due to their rugged construction are perfect for AV rental inventories. With a pole receptacle (that accepts a SS4-BK or SS4-BK24) on the top panel and integrated stereo pass-thru this is the most powerful low-frequency complement to the PRX full-range systems. The addition of a polarity reverse option further enables system optimization.

The PRX818XLF is a high performance self-powered subwoofer system with remote Wi-Fi control of onboard DSP EQ parameters. The PRX818XLF is comprised of a powerful 2278G Differential Drive dual voice-coil and magnetic gap, woofer driven by a 1500 Watt Class-D power amplifier. Sophisticated DSP is at the core of a fully featured input section, providing user selectable cross-over functionality, polarity optimization, protection, dynamic limiting and discrete component optimization.

All PRX800 cabinets are built from a combination of 25 mm (on the top and bottom for added rigidity) and 18 mm, strong, lightweight poplar plywood made structurally sound with tongue and groove joints. All PRX800 Series cabinets are protected by JBL's tour proven DuraFlex read more finish. Grilles are made from dent-resistant 16 gauge steel and handles are made from light-weight glass-filled nylon for added strength and durability.

The amplifier input panel offers stereo inputs with XLR or 1/4-inch jack compatibility. A user selectable crossover ensures a smooth transition to full-range system connected to the stereo outputs. Signal present and limiter lights indicate the system status and assist in setting the optimum level via the level control knob.

I handling sound more than 30 yrs with live band, club/bar, and this is a very excellent sub I experience with. Order via ZZounds, receive one today, and after 1 hr listening I order another one. Hook it up with 2 turbosound IQ15 top, the sub Sound is very deep low, very musical across the 30-100hz of bass. I try listening some HD Clips from HTX/Dolby, Smooth Jazz, Ambiance Instrument EDM, Trance/Remix. The sub has no muddy, very loud, punchy. I happen has at home Milan 15 & Milan 18 both 2200W and A/B testing, resulting this JBL are so much sweeter, tight bass.This also blows away the passive Cerwin Vega Big Horn sub connect with 1600W QSC bridge mono.For the last test, I use the DBX for adding Sub-Synth (adding an octave below for every note below 100 HZ), the sub sounds now more powerful and produces extra extended low airy thumping.The size is good and very powerful looking sub. I dont like small sub which cannot provides extend low freq, and it light weight.
