Yamaha DXS18 mk3 18-Inch 2000W Powered Subwoofer

The Yamaha DXS18 mk3 Powered Subwoofer is the flagship model in the latest generation of DXS series subwoofers, engineered to deliver the deepest, most powerful low-frequency performance in the lineup. Designed for professional audio applications where maximum bass impact is essential, this subwoofer produces ultra-low frequencies with exceptional clarity and control. Ideal for large-scale live events, DJ systems, and high-performance installations, the DXS18 mk3 provides unmatched low-end reinforcement.

At its core, the DXS18 mk3 features a high-durability 18" woofer with a 4" voice coil, powered by a newly developed high-efficiency Class-D amplifier. Its optimized bandpass cabinet design minimizes unwanted resonance and distortion while maximizing output, delivering up to 134 dB SPL. This results in powerful, tight, and highly controlled bass that integrates seamlessly with full-range loudspeakers such as the DXR mk3 series.

Equipped with advanced DSP processing, the DXS18 mk3 offers precise control and system flexibility. Built-in D-XSUB processing extends the low-frequency response down to 32 Hz, delivering deep, immersive bass performance. Flexible crossover settings allow seamless system integration, while cardioid mode enhances stage performance by reducing unwanted rearward bass energy. Constructed with a rugged plywood enclosure and equipped with dual pole mount options, the DXS18 mk3 is built for durability, reliability, and professional-grade performance.
