1600 WATTS, DURABLE, lightweight
So...With so many great powered speakers on the market . It’s nice to see that there is still a market for a passive speaker. The reason I chose the EV EKX18S from AMS, was because I do a lot of outdoor events, in the blazing hot sun.
A must have Keep the subs looking as new well made nice logo design and a side pocket on the side just put some cables in excellent wouldnt buy the speakers without these covers top notch
Great quality and sound. Easy to move and store due to size and weight but packs a big punch where sound is concerned.
For the cash its a great powered 18. My store has these set up for open mic night and they are great. Very punchy and the low frequencies are good and are not too deep like a lot of other subs on the market. Great value speaker, check one out. Wonderful for the musician on a budget.
