YAMAHA CXS18 Mk3 | 18-inch Passive Subwoofer

CXS18 mk3

18" Passive Subwoofer

Countless variables, and often pure luck, can factor into pulling off a memorable, even life-altering performance. Some you can control, others you cannot, but the new CXSmk3 passive subwoofer takes luck out of the equation, offering outstanding performance, flexibility, and reliability for professional environments that put a premium on their bass sound. With an acoustic design that consistently delivers linear VLF performance, the highly-durable, Polyurea coated enclosure houses Yamaha’s own long-excursion, high-performance speaker unit, and features an ideal bandpass structure for smooth and deep frequency response—even at higher outputs. With the CXSmk3 reliably delivering your bass with serious power and startling precision, you’ll never have to question if your bottom end performance can rise to the occasion when you need it most. 

The CXS18 mk3 is the 3rd-generation version of Yamaha's subwoofer, bringing with it a wooden bandpass cabinet, a newly developed transducer, and fully passive operation. With 750W of power handling, this passive sub offers potent sound reproduction.
