      JBL PRX618S 18" Portable Subwoofer System (106079395)
Availability:  


Offers the performance of an 18" subwoofer in a package not much larger than a typical 15" sub.

The PRX618S 18" Portable Subwoofer is a high-performance powered compact subwoofer system. The PRX618S is comprised of a 268G 460mm (18") Differential Drive dual voice-coil and magnetic gap, neodymium woofer driven by a Crown Class-D power amplifier. The amplifier input panel offers stereo or mono line level inputs via balanced XLR connectors as well as a single channel speaker level input via a 1/4" TS phone jack. Signal processing, crossover functionality and limiting for the system is integrated into the input section functionality. Overall subwoofer input sensitivity is controlled by a single easy grip knob and a simple switch enables polarity reversal for sub/satellite system optimization. Signal present and limit lights indicate performance status.

Compact and powerful, the PRX618S offers the performance of an 18" subwoofer in a package not much larger than a typical 15" sub. With a pole receptacle (that accepts a SS3-BK or SS3-BK24) on the top panel and integrated stereo pass-thru, with selectable HP filter, this is the perfect compliment to the PRX600 full-range systems. Configured with a PRX612M or PRX615M the result is a highly transportable, high-performance subs/satellite system. The addition of polarity reverse options further enables integration with any top cabinet.

All PRX600 cabinets are built from a combination of 1" (25mm) on the top and bottom for added rigidity, and 3/4" (18mm), strong, lightweight poplar plywood made structurally sound with tongue and groove joints. All PRX600 Series cabinets are protected by JBL's tour-proven DuraFlex finish. Grilles are made from dent-resistant 16-gauge steel and handles are made from lightweight glass-filled nylon for added strength and durability.

PRX600s have been certified "Green Edge" compliant by Harman Professional.

SPECIAL NOTE: JBL highly recommends that no more than 70 lb. of weight be placed on a speaker pole that is mounted to a PRX618S or PRX618S-XLF.

  • Maximum SPL 129db peak
    18" (460mm) Differential Drive dual voice-coil and magnetic gap, neodymium woofer

  • Good sub for the price

    As reviewed by Rob on 10/26/2010

    I purchased this recently and it sounds fantastic. after adjusting the gain and getting it perfect i am thoroughly happy with it. With dance music and hip hop it is perfect. Although it does not have the power to handle the super low frequencies of dub step it is perfect for about 90% of application.

  • Nothing like the XLF

    As reviewed by Jesse Papike on 5/13/2011

    I originally bought a PRX 618s 600 watt sub, and I was very dissapointed, I think I just expected a lot. Considering I paired it with prx 635's which are 1,500 watts, the sub just could not keep up at all, always cliping and not really bumpin. I finally sold that one and then got the XLF, and what a difference. I mean this thing just keeps giving and keeps up with my PRX speakers whether its the 635's or 615's. I found out too that this sub has a different driver in it as well as amp, so definatley worth the extra money. If you wanna really have some fun, by two of these and couple them, (which means next to each other) dont stack them. by doing this you will get an extra 3db gain by adding another sub and then another 3db gain by coupling. My advice is to spend the extra money and get the xlf, you will not be disapointed.

  • PRX618S

    As reviewed by Ken F on 12/15/2010

    This JBL sub is perfect for any application. Mobile, install, and anything else in between. This Sub is light!! Thanks to the Cass D amp used. The 600 watts is plenty of power to drive an 18" speaker. This sound beuatiful with the PRX Wedge cabinets, or QSC K series. This help get the missing thump, and sub bass that the KSub lacks. This speaker is loud, and you feel it from all different areas when used at a venue. You can use this part of a speaker stack/array for live sound as well as DJing. Again, this sub is SUPER LIGHT compared to the other powered subs on the market right now. The design of the cabinet is perfect, you do not lose any freqeuncy from the back or sides, it is a front loaded cabinet, so you get perfect bass in every sort of genre you may be using. I recommend this sub for anyone who wants pure clean super tight sub-bass, definetley worth the money!!!
