The ASB7118 is a high power,
lightweight front-loaded vented
subwoofer enclosure housing JBL’s
exclusive 2269H Ultra Long Excursion
18” Differential Drive® woofer. This
woofer features neodymium magnet, dual
voice coils and dual gaps, JBL’s exclusive
Vented Gap Cooling™ and ultra robust
composite cone for high excursion and
extra long life. Woofer is capable of a
peak-to-peak maximum excursion of 89

The enclosure is constructed of
multiply hardwood coated in JBL’s rugged
DuraFlex™ finish and is heavily braced
to maximize low-frequency performance.
The rectangular enclosure is fitted
with sixteen M10 threaded attachment
points and utilizes a 14-gauge steel
grille internally lined with acoustically
transparent foam to provide additional
driver protection and give a very
professional appearance.
The ASB7118 is part of JBL’s AE
