    As reviewed by Rick Matousek on 6/29/2009

    My sister and I have a 6 piece band that, when idle, we will use our PA and DJ some weddings and parties to supplement our band income. We have always used JBL products and were using a pair of the EON G2 subs with our EON 15G2 mains, and were pretty happy with them. I wanted more bottom and more power. This new EON 518S has an 18 inch speaker and 500 watts of power and is surprisingly lightweight. We used it to DJ a party and the PA never sounded so good. Last week we ran the whole 6 piece band through it, and great results again. All the guys in band were ecstatic with the extra "Thump" We are getting ready to add a second one to the system. You need this sub for your system ! It will sound great and better than what you have now.

  • OH MY GOD THIS SUB IS AMAZING

    As reviewed by Dj FreaK on 3/12/2010

    i went out to go get the prx518s, but i didnt have enough money. so the guy at guitarcenter told me about the eon and i was open to hear it. they showed me one on clearance because of a small problem [it rattled at high volumes] but i took that out of consideration and i thought it was alright. the rattling of the sub just made it seam like it couldent hold up at high volumes. i bought a new one and it wouldent fit in my car. i had to call my friend to bring her suv and it would barley fit in the back of it! she brought it to my house and i was kind of skeptical because it was really light, and to me lightweight speaker = not built well. i got it home and hooked it up to my system on about 30% volume. that was a mistake [or a rather awesome discovery]. it sure went BOOM. my neighbors came over to my house to complain in the first 30 mins i had it home. im notorious for disturbing the peace in my neighborhood. they usually dont care. they said they can tolerate loud but this is ridiculous. i cant wait to try it out at a gig. this REALLY puts the bump in my system i needed. this sub is as big as the sound, without the weight. i love it. this is yet another one of jbl's creations that continue to amaze me. im going to pair this with some prx dual 15's. i couldent imagine how amazing that would sound. buy this sub!! you will NOT be let down!
