I plan to keep these for a long time
Sound
Good solid bass - have only used it for live sound & works great. The balance between: Quality-Price-Size for an active sub I think would be hard to beat, I for one am not going to find out! I run this with a couple QSC KW152's - this works for a pretty sizeable room & outdoors works great -
Features
It gives a lot of options - I have not run it yet as a pass through, I run a sub signal direct - has a lot of options & the limiting works great as does the polarity option - only downside is it needs special JBL speaker poles - if it used standard poles I would give it a 10
Ease of Use
very user friendly - manual is easy to understand, but your really don't need it
Quality
these things are solid! - a little heavy, but that is what friends, roadies & dolly's are for!
Value
As I mentioned, I think it would be hard to beat the sound-quality-size & price for an active 18" sub - I started with 1, now have 2 & may look to add more!
Manufacturer Support
I went on line & was able to easily download the manual (I keep all manuals for my pa stuff on my laptop - I did not have to scan, it was all there - I have not needed any additional support
The Wow Factor
nice looking package - looks tough & sounds great
Musical Background:
Promoter, Hobbyist and overall nice guy
