"Best bang for your buck "

Overall: 5 out of 5 stars
(see rating details)
I had some Yamaha S118V speakers go out on me so I replaced them with these Peaveys. I stuck the new speakers in the Yamaha cabinet and power each sub with a Behringer ep2500. These Peavey speakers are seriously some of the best subwoofers ive ever owned. We mostly play trap, party, and mashups and I cant even turn these speakers up to their full potential because the bass travels so far. When I get some more money together, I'll be picking up more.

"Best subs I've ever owned!!"

Overall: 5 out of 5 stars
(see rating details)
Verified Customer zZounds has verified that this reviewer made a purchase from us.
Just from the specs alone, I was blown away and had to have them and I'm glad I've got them cause they are INSANE!!
Sound
Incredible low end that you can feel all the way down to 25hz. I'm impressed by how musical they are even after hours of pounding!!
Features
Only issue I had was that on one of the two I purchased I had to resolder the metal part that connects from the terminal to the cone. The excursion snapped the little bugger so I made it strong for sure. Now it rocks again.
Ease of Use
These things will handle ANYTHING you throw at them. I have to old QSC 1450 bridged for each box and these speakers laughed at me. (I know....I need more power)
Quality
Like I stated above, The only issue I had was that on one of the two I purchased I had to resolder the metal part that connects from the terminal to the cone. Other than that, it's solidly made. And did I mention the replaceable basket? #WIN
Value
I would recommend these for any live sound application. Great price and performance.
Manufacturer Support
When I contacted the AWESOME customer service at Zzound they informed me that I would have to contact Peavey, but when I realized the issue was a soldering matter, I just put in the little bit of repair work myself.
The Wow Factor
Big sexy subs!!

"The best replacement speaker for a Peavey DTH-218 cabinet."

Overall: 4.5 out of 5 stars
(see rating details)
Overall, I really like the "Low-Rider" 18" speaker by Peavey. I think that with the amplifier that I use, it is the best replacement speaker I have ever bought.
Sound
I have a pair of Peavey DTH-218 subwoofers, and these run at 4 ohms each. I have a QSC-3402 amplifier connected in bridge mono to each cabinet. I have found, by experience, that this configuration is the most efficient and best sounding way to use these speakers.
Quality
The shipping box these came in are virtually indestructable. The speaker is in an octagon shaped box, which keeps the round bugger from shifting around. Then this box is placed into another box with foam to keep the octagon box from moving around. This box was then placed inside another shipping box, with the other speaker
Manufacturer Support
I have done some checking around, and I find that Peavey has a problem keeping up with the demand for this speaker type. The company moved their facility, and then the hurricanes hit. I ordered 4 of these Low Rider speakers from my local music store, and 2 of them came in. The other 2 did not even after 3 months of waiting. I was told they were making these speakers for Peavey cabinets, and all they could do was keep up with the manufacture of these cabinets.

While the sub sounded great. We had two of them go bad (the solder used is terrible and the wire leads just fell off). We re-coned one with their basket kit, and that blew out a few months after. Cheap speakers, but you get what you pay for.
