Deep bass response with flexible control
The AIR XD Sub 18 is built to deliver clear and powerful bass, thanks to its custom 18-inch woofer and enlarged voice coil. The design ensures efficient low-end reproduction with reduced distortion, giving you tight and controlled bass that feels present without overwhelming the mix. With a frequency response extending down to 33 Hz and a peak output of 130 dB, this subwoofer handles everything from thumping kick drums to low synths with ease.
A built-in lowpass filter, adjustable from 60 Hz to 150 Hz, allows seamless integration with a wide range of top speakers. Use it to tailor your crossover point and maintain clarity across the full frequency range. This makes the sub just as suitable for permanent installations as it is for mobile event setups.
DSP tools for fast setup and precise tuning
The onboard DSP includes powerful tools that make configuring your system quick and straightforward. Choose from custom presets to match AIR XD full-range speakers or adjust settings manually for tailored results. An alignment delay of up to 12 metres helps you sync multiple speakers and avoid phase issues, especially when deploying arrays in large spaces.
Preset modes such as Normal, Cardioid, and Endfire give you instant access to advanced array configurations without needing additional gear or external processors. You can also activate “Mo’ Bass” mode to enhance the lowest frequencies when extra sub impact is needed, especially for music-heavy events like live DJ sets or club nights.
Built-in Bluetooth for wireless stereo pairing
Wireless connectivity is built into the AIR XD Sub 18. With Bluetooth and TWS Bridge Mode, you can pair with another speaker for stereo playback—no need for external mixers or additional cabling. This is particularly useful in mobile scenarios where speed and simplicity matter, like corporate events, outdoor gigs, or temporary venues.
This feature is fully integrated and works with the AIR XD full-range speakers, allowing complete system control directly from the sub. It’s a clean and tidy solution for setups that require flexibility, fast changeovers, and minimal cable runs.
Road-ready build with easy transport options
Despite its impressive power, the AIR XD Sub 18 is designed to be mobile and practical. The enclosure is built from 15mm plywood with a textured paint finish and a 1.5mm steel grille for durability. It is compact enough for transport in standard vehicles and includes caster mounting points and ground-stacking provisions.
Ergonomic side handles make lifting and loading straightforward, while the included caster kit makes venue changes faster and less demanding on your crew. This makes the sub just as at home on the road as it is in a permanent venue. Combined with its intuitive DSP and powerful output, the AIR XD Sub 18 becomes a smart long-term investment for professionals who need consistent performance without setup hassle.
