Powerful and Affordable 18-Inch Subwoofer for Standalone Applications
The Yamaha LS18-E subwoofer is designed to deliver high SPL and deep bass response in a cost-effective package. As a streamlined version of the LS18, this model eliminates rigging plates, handles, and pole mounts while maintaining the same high-powered performance. Ideal for standalone applications, the LS18-E offers an outstanding price-to-performance ratio, making it perfect for venues, DJ setups, and live sound reinforcement.
High SPL and Deep Low-Frequency Response
Equipped with an 18-inch long-excursion driver and a 4-inch voice coil, the LS18-E provides a powerful low-end response with peak SPL levels ranging from 137 to 140 dB. Its extended frequency range of 30Hz to 130Hz ensures clear and impactful bass, making it a great choice for music playback, live performances, and fixed audio installations that require strong subwoofer support.
Lightweight and Compact Design for Easy Placement
Without the added weight of handles and mounting hardware, the LS18-E remains relatively lightweight and easy to maneuver. Weighing in at 55.5 kg (122.3 lb), it is built with a Baltic birch plywood enclosure and a structured black coating for durability. This subwoofer is designed for applications where portability and ease of placement are priorities without the need for rigging or flyable configurations.
Reliable Construction for Long-Term Use
Designed for long-term reliability, the LS18-E features a rugged construction that can withstand the demands of professional audio environments. Its front panel is reinforced with a molded dark grey metal grille, providing protection for the internal components while maintaining an aesthetic and professional appearance. This enclosure ensures that the subwoofer delivers consistent performance even in demanding conditions.
Seamless Integration with PS and GEO S12 Systems
Although it lacks flying and mounting hardware, the LS18-E remains fully compatible with NEXO PS and GEO S12 systems. Whether used as a dedicated subwoofer for a PA system or as part of a larger setup, it provides excellent low-frequency reinforcement without the added cost of rigging accessories. Its dual NL4MP Speakon connectors ensure reliable connectivity with existing speaker systems.
Ideal for Budget-Conscious Installations and Mobile Applications
For users who need high-quality bass without the additional rigging features, the LS18-E is an excellent choice. It is well-suited for clubs, event spaces, mobile DJs, and rental companies that require a robust subwoofer at an affordable price. The stripped-down design allows users to invest in sound quality without paying for extra mounting options they don’t need.
