OVERVIEW
The SBX218 is a high output subwoofer
system designed to support any system from
RSX to ADAPTive Series products. SBX Series
use of neodymium woofers with a 4-in voice
coil ensures the best sonic performance,
meeting expectations for medium to large
venues.

Conceal wiring for
clean look
Engineered for both production and
installation uses, SBX218 is equipped with a
threaded pole mount and rugged handles,
making for a perfect solution for small gigs
to large concert systems. Integrated runners
on the top and sides lock subs together
to resist movement due to vibration and
provide a clean look. Support of ground stack
operation of NTX can be accomplished with
two sets of ybar locating pins, providing safe
operation at any splay angle
SBX218's hefty grill with large openings
protects the woofers, resists damage, and
is acoustically transparent. The ultra large
port, inspired by aircraft design, eliminates
port noise. EAW DynO™ gets every last dB of
performance out of the system in the most
challenging conditions.
