Tour-quality Subwoofer That's Built to Last

The JBL STX818S passive subwoofer gives you high-performance, tour-quality sound in a road-ready format. All STX800 Series speakers give you exceptional durability thanks to multi-ply birch/plywood construction, complete with a Duraflex finish for additional protection. The STX818S handles 2,000 watts of power for rock-solid bass response in any application. No matter how you use it, you'll love the big sound and reliable performance you get from the JBL STX818S passive subwoofer!

JBL STX818S Passive Subwoofer at a Glance:
  • Designed for powerful performance
  • Road-ready construction
  • JBL's 100-hour power test

Designed for powerful performance
JBL's STX818S passive subwoofer packs an 18" driver with 2,000-watts RMS power handling for maximum sonic quality. JBL's Super Vented Gap woofer technology helps extend the frequency response, so you'll get ultra-low bass that retains punch and impact. The high power rating gives the STX818S the needed headroom to reproduce your sound with exceptional richness and focus, with virtually distortion even when pushed hard.

Road-ready construction
If you need a tour-quality subwoofer that can take abuse, you'll appreciate the STX818S's design. You get multi-ply birch/poplar construction, coated with DuraFlex for maximum protection. The hardwood cabinet isn't just strong, it reduces resonance for cleaner sound quality. And with a rugged 14-gauge steel grill protecting the woofer, you can be sure your STX818S is ready for virtually anything.

JBL's 100-hour power test
When you receive your STX818S passive subwoofer, it's already survived JBL's rigorous 100-hour power test. Each component and each system in the STX800 Series is subjected to 100 straight hours of continuous, high-level input. All JBL Professional products must pass the test before they can grace your venue, ensuring that you're receiving a reliable subwoofer that can take the real-world rigors that we all put our sound systems through.

My experience was outstanding! I feel like I'm back in the 1950's when customer service was worth its weight in gold! I love the candy and personal phone call to acknowledge my order. You deliver the goods with superior efficiency, expediency and true concern for the customer.

Absolutely Incredible

by MK from NY
September 21, 2012
Music Background: DJ
I ordered these over the phone & was kind of skeptical because I couldn't hear them before I bought them. It was the best decision I ever made... I've been DJing for 5 years and setting up sound sys... read more [+]tems for 10, these portable subs are club quality and I can assure you that there is nothing better on the market. Not only are they powerful, but they're deep & rich; they hit low frequencies that I didn't even know existed in some songs! Couple all that with ability to flexpay and this is one of my smartest purchases ever.

Make sure you power them properly (I use a Crown Xti 6002) and I guarantee you'll have the best bass you've ever heard. close [-]
