General

Yamaha's DXS 18 active subwoofer is part of the Japanese manufacturer's DXS series. Earlier models - the DXS 12 and the DXS 15 - were also great companions for the speakers from Yamaha's DXR series, but the DXS-18 is equipped with a larger, 18-inch woofer, which means it's able to reproduce frequencies as low as 32 Hz. That's quite an impressive feat; 32 Hz equals the lowest note of a bass guitar. Combine the subwoofer with a decent speaker, and you'll be able to enjoy full-range sound.

Characteristics of the Yamaha DXS 18 Active Subwoofer

Incorporating the DXS 18 into your setup is a piece of cake. Simply plug your audio source into its two XLR inputs, and connect its XLR outputs to your regular speakers. A proper D-Class amplifier takes care of the rest, achieving a dynamic output power of 1020 Watts, and a continuous output power of 800 Watts. The DXS-18's cardioid mode is a great feature if you intend to use several models in a single setup. It increases the bottom-end output directed towards your audience, while efficiently reducing stage-side sound pressure. Meanwhile, a 35mm or M20 speaker pole is all you need to create a nice configuration with your other speakers.

Wrote the following about Yamaha DXS 18 Active Subwoofer
Wow wow wow, que dire de plus ? Si vous hésitez encore n’ayez plus aucun doute. Alors oui dépensé presque 1300€ dans un caisson sa peut faire peur mais croyez moi vous en aurez pour votre argent. Je dois quand même vous prévenir que lorsque vous recevez votre caisson dans le carton c’est un monstre ÉNORME. Pour un caisson de 18 pouces il reste quand même plus gros que la normale et plus lourd aussi (50kg). Il faut être au moins deux pour le transporter. Mais alors yamaha à la solution et vous propose les roulettes en option, personnellement je trouve sa dégeulasse de payer un caisson 1300€ et de ne pas avoir les roulettes inclus. (90€ les roulettes, quand même. Ainsi que 130€ pour la housse). Toute ces options font monté très vite la facture. Par exemple Qsc fournissent leurs caissons avec les roulettes ! Pour se qui est de la qualité sonore c’est impressionnant le rendu qu’il peut dégager. Enfin la vrai description sur le site retrouvez en réel. Le design est très classe je trouve et le revêtement est plutôt solide. Avec un caisson vous pouvez faire pas mal mais alors avec deux caissons vous êtes un pape ! Je ne pourrais pas vous dire un nombre parce que cela dépend de se que vous faite comme soirée ect... Moi je fais des soirées dj mobile avec musique enregistrer. Ne perdez pas votre temps avec les versions 12 et 15 pouces, un vendeur m’avait dit que je serai déçu avec, que le rendu sonore n’était pas aussi performant que la version 18 pouces. Se que j’aime avec se caisson c’est qu’il décent bas (très bas, 32 hertz) et avec des basses biens rondes et percutantes. Bref, si les moyens sont là n’hésitez pas
