Thanks for the post. I own one of these and I noticed when researching, there weren’t many videos about this sub on KZbin. Just the EKX 18. In my opinion this is the perfect sub for a Mobile DJ. It hits harder than my ELX 118p’s.

Just added this to my DJ setup after months of debating on whether I need vs want a sub. Speaker setup consists of pair of EV ZLX 15” and added this sub. Decided to add this as it was easier financially due to zzounds pay as you play program. Next on the list to add to my inventory is uplighting.

If you are using a sub with a main and you're running the cable from the board to the sub, then a patch cable from the sub to the load speaker. In this setup, do I need to set the crossover on the Sub and the Main, or just the sub? Thanks!

I have the EKX 18SP, and I do love it, but I sometimes find myself wondering if I should have just grabbed a pair of these instead. The 18 is great, but sometimes 'too much' for the weddings I do. The 15 may have been a better choice, while being a bit smaller and lighter - and for the rare occasion that I needed more I could have a second 15 and couple them. The EKX series is great. At under 60lbs this subwoofer is a beast!!
@jasonrankin95156 жыл бұрын
I own this EKX 15 and to be honest, it sounds just as good as my QSC KW181 up to a certain point. Obviously the QSC goes lower and hits harder but it cost and weighs almost double. The EKX15sp is still enough to rattle windows and shake a few bottles off the shelves.

I am a wedding DJ as well. Occasional proms and other events. I have 2x Yamaha DXr 15s which have provided enough sound/bass for most events, yet not enough for completely open air environments. Wondering, should I just get 1 EKX 15SP to pair with my tops....or do you think the 18inch is worth the extra lugging around? I'm only going to do one sub.

Thanks for the review. We're a 7 piece wedding band - crowds from 100-400 and some corporate events usually no more than 500. I was thinking two EKX12P tops and one 15SP sub. With the sub's 2 inputs, in that configuration with 1 sub, would you run both tops into the sub or just one top into the sub running a mono board mix into the tops?
@jdavis84606 жыл бұрын
I think a pair would be better for your application. It will also give you more flexibility between crowds of 100-400 people. I have a pair of the ekx15sp that I use with a pair of Yamaha dxr8 and it sounds great.

Hi Brian. Thank you for your videos, i'v' seen many of them and they are interesting, there is always something to learn. I'm not a DJ, but musician, I have 2 Evolve 50 and 4 ELX200 10P tops. When we play in a bigger venue, I add the 4 ELX200 10P to spread the sound and I like it, But I was thinking instead of using these Evolve 50 in those situations, would be to buy 2 EKX 15SP and coupled them with the 4 ELX200 10P. Two tops for each sub. What do you think ? Are the ELX200 10P be a nice match with the EKX 15SP ? (sorry for my poor English 😊)
@Tim_ArtistName_Tallent Жыл бұрын
Hi friend keep in mind that the Evolve 50s have 120 degree horizontal coverage, while the ELX 10 have 90 degrees each. So be mindful how you set them up because one configuration could have less coverage than another , depends how you mix and match the speakers

2 questions, 1, what's that bad boy cost? 2. Will it fit in the front seat of a vehicle....? I think I'm gonna buy a sports car, when I do small club gigs I usually bring my tables and a sub I usually stand on so I'm over the crowd.... but my subs like 6 yrs old 400w I need more bass :) I'm sick of spending the fuel in my 5.4 v8 truck.... I want to go fast and less gas but still be able to have a small show :) I've been off for 6 months due to being attacked after a club gig thinking I was someone else.... so when my head is all healed up I want to come back to the scene strong....

I had the pleasure of testing this sub but the EKX-18S and let me tell you , this sub is some serious bussines. It was outdoors event and I had it at 4 plus decibles and I had to turn it down to 2 decibles because honestly it was enough for the party event. This however is too much in a backyard party house and u probably need to turn negative decibles unless u want the cops showing up to ur party 🥳 house. Anywaysx expensive sub but you will be sp proud of owning them 15 or 18 they are monsters
