Discover the unparalleled power and performance of the DXS18 18" 1020W Powered Subwoofer, a top-tier product from Yamaha, a brand synonymous with high-quality audio equipment. This compact and durable subwoofer is designed to deliver a best-in-class Sound Pressure Level (SPL) of up to 136dB, ensuring your bass-heavy audio is heard with crystal-clear clarity.

Engineered to deliver the lowest frequency response in its lineup, down to 32Hz, the DXS18 is housed in a sturdy band-pass enclosure. This design significantly reduces unwanted vibrations and noise, enhancing the overall sound quality. The custom-built 18" driver, equipped with a large 4-inch voice coil, and a high-efficiency Class-D amplifier, ensures the delivery of 1020W of power with exceptional precision and clarity.

The DXS18 is not just about power; it's about delivering serious bass performance. With its high-output, powered subwoofers, this product ensures your audio's bottom end is managed reliably. It features Yamaha's state-of-the-art Digital Signal Processing (DSP), protection functions, and flexible crossover control for seamless compatibility with Yamaha's extensive lineup of full-range speakers.

Designed for audio engineers and bass enthusiasts, the DXS18 is perfect for live performances or DJ events. The high-performance Class-D amplifier is capable of producing up to 1020W of power, and a maximum SPL of 136dB, delivered with exceptional clarity and accuracy. The high-output woofer features a 4" voice coil magnet and delivers powerful, well-defined, low-frequency bass with minimal distortion.

The DXS18 is not just robust and reliable; it's also portable and road-ready. The enclosure exterior features a durable Polyurea coating for superior protection against scratches, bumps, or severe weather conditions, maintaining a professional appearance for years to come. The compact and portable design, coupled with a dual pole socket that accommodates both 35mm diameter speaker poles and M20 screws, makes setup and transport a breeze.

With Yamaha's innovative DSP and control options, you can execute your performances exactly as planned. The newly developed Cardioid Mode, ideal for setups consisting of two or more DXS subwoofers, effectively decreases stage-side sound pressure while increasing the bottom-end output directed towards the audience. This results in a cleaner stage monitoring environment and a more pronounced bass experience for the audience.

The DXS18 also features powerful D-XSUB processing, giving you total control of your low frequency. NORMAL mode provides a balanced low-frequency response, while BOOST mode offers a tighter and more focused bass. XTENDED LF mode drops the low-end frequencies down even further for a thunderous bottom end.

With selectable X-OVER (80/100/120Hz), you can seamlessly match the DXS18 subwoofer with any of Yamaha's full-range powered speakers by selecting the cutoff frequency best suited to the models in their speaker array. Experience the power and versatility of the DXS Series active subwoofers and take your full-range system to the next level.
