What is Demo Gear?

At Sweetwater, we're so picky that what we call a "demo" is actually better than what most music retailers sell as "new" gear! Our gear hasn't endured hundreds of people a week plunking away at all the keyboards, fumbling through Stairway to Heaven on every guitar or playing with every fader and knob on a mixer or control surface.

What demo means to us is that we've had it out of the box, or maybe it was in a customer's hands for a few days and isn't "factory fresh" as a result. Every demo item we sell has Sweetwater's 2-year Total Confidence Coverage™ warranty, and has been tested and verified up to "new" specs by our factory-authorized technicians to make sure it's in perfect working order before we ship it to you.

When you buy a Demo item at Sweetwater, you get:
  • 2-year Total Confidence Coverage Warranty™!
  • Products inspected and tested by our factory-authorized techs, guaranteed to function like new (or better)!
  • FREE shipping on most items
  • Equipment that will MEET or EXCEED your expectations!

Speakers sound great however not enough attention to detail in the assembly / quality control - Great customer support from Eminence & Sweetwater

I purchased two(2) of the Kilomax Pro-18A speakers. Both sound great, HOWEVER one of the speakers assembly is off.

The front of the speaker has the Eminence Logo over the voice coil. On one of the speakers the logo is canted slightly so the logo is crooked when looking through the speaker grill (see attached pictures). To make it worse these logos are silver metallic and show clearly through a black grill. The crooked logo could not be moved because it is part of the speaker, and rotating the speaker did not help because the crooked logo is in between the rotation of the speaker mounting holes.

Sweetwater did offer to replace the speaker that had the crooked logo.

As far as sound I would give the speakers a 5 Star rating, because of the lack of quality control I had to downgrade to a 4 star rating. Even though it is cosmetic, it makes me wonder about the rest of the quality control.

I used a the pair of subs with a Crown XLS2500 (2400 Watts in bridge mode & speakers paralleled for 4 ohm operation) for a 24 hour outdoor running event at the local middle school and these subs performed flawlessly and gave great bottom end throughout the football field and track where the students were running and camping. Yes we had to turn down the volume over night as the police were called multiple times for noise complaints, even though the school had a permit and officers were on scene throughout the event :) ...to be fair the bass was hitting and probably shaking the walls in the apartments / townhouses located next to the school.

FYI: I used these in Yamaha SW118IV cabinets to replace a blown Peavey 1801-8 LT Black Widow. I did have to remove the mounting hardware from the cabinet, fill the old mounting holes, drill new mounting holes and move / reinsert the mounting hardware on the inside of the cabinet since the Eminence speaker mounting holes do not line up with the original Yamaha or the Black Widow speakers. I also bypassed the internal power limiting device, replaced the 1/4" jacks with SpeakON connectors and replaced the internal wiring with heavy speaker wire.

BTW I got great customer support from Eminence prior to purchase when I Emailed them asking about replacement speakers for my Yamaha SW118IV cabinets. This is the response I got from Eminence:

"Hey Michael,

When you re-wired these, did you remove the power limiting device that looks like a round lollipop thing? That is a giant polyswitch that limits the power to the woofer to about 350 watts. It normally opens when it gets too hot and then goes back to a short when it cools down. If you did not remove it, then going to a higher power woofer is not going to get you anything. But since you say you re-wired, my bet is you did take it out, but just thought I would make sure.

Here are the top three woofers to go back in there:

Kappa Pro 18LF-8 800/1600 watts

Kilomax Pro 18A 1250/2500 watts

FSW4018-8 1600/3200 watts

I would go with the FSW4018-8 as it is just better sounding and handles more power.

Crank and Enjoy!"

Unbelievable!

I bought a pair of Yamaha SW118's in 1985. After upgrading my Peavey low amp from a CS-800 to an IPR2-5000, it was easy to hear the speakers needed to be upgraded.

I bought these speakers HOPING they would pound and sound well.

I installed them in the Yamaha cabinets and they fit perfectly.

After setting my Peavey 35XO the way I wanted it, I started cracking the master volume and at the first mark I was already impressed. I bounced around between tunes and worked the volume more and more until I got to 1/2, which I never go beyond. WOW! These things hit HARD and the clip lights on the amp never flashed at all after 4 hours of ear bleeding volume. lol

If you're looking for 18's that will far exceed your expectations, look no further. Add these to your cart. You will not be dissatisfied.
