The JBL Professional EON718S is a high-performance 18-inch powered subwoofer designed to deliver exceptional low-frequency reinforcement with unmatched clarity and reliability. Part of the innovative EON700 Series, this subwoofer leverages cutting-edge transducer technology, advanced DSP capabilities, and robust construction to provide professional-grade performance for portable PA systems and fixed installations. Powered by a 1,500W peak / 750W RMS discrete Class D amplifier, the EON718S achieves a maximum SPL of 131 dB, producing deep, natural bass that extends down to 31 Hz. Its custom-engineered 18-inch woofer with a 3-inch voice coil ensures smooth and powerful low-frequency output with precision and consistency.

The EON718S is equipped with advanced dbx DSP, offering parametric EQ, polarity inversion, and speaker delay for seamless system integration and optimal sound control. These features can be accessed through the color backlit LCD screen on the subwoofer or remotely via the JBL Pro Connect app, which utilizes Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) technology for enhanced functionality. Flexible connectivity options include two XLR combo inputs and two XLR loop-outs, providing compatibility with a wide range of audio sources and configurations.

The subwoofer's durable 18mm birch plywood cabinet is coated with JBL's patented DuraFlex finish, ensuring long-term reliability and resistance to wear and tear. The 16-gauge perforated steel grille, backed by acoustically transparent cloth, protects internal components without compromising audio performance. Ergonomic handles make transportation effortless, while the integrated M20 threaded pole mount expands configuration options with full-range speakers. Additionally, stackable cabinets allow for cardioid configurations and convenient storage, making the EON718S versatile for live sound, DJ setups, and permanent installations.
