Canadian loudspeaker manufacturer Yorkville, has announced the YXL18SP powered subwoofer. The YXL18SP is the latest addition to the YXL Series, Yorkville’s new line of powered cabinets. The first subwoofer in the YXL lineup was released in 2022, the 15-inch YXL15SP. Providing 500 watts of transducer power handling and Class-D amplification, the YXL18SP is said to be loud for its size. Weighing in at just over 35 kg, the YXL18SP features metal bar-type handles on the sides.
Jeff Cowling, Yorkville’s Vice President of Sales and Marketing comments, “Our YXL line of affordable cabinets grew from two powered cabinets introduced in 2020, to a robust selection of powered & passive models for the working DJ & Musician. With Yorkville’s specialty in Subwoofers, it made sense to double up by adding the YXL15SP and YSL18SP. We now have two YXL powered sub options that are accessible, versatile, and uphold our reputation for great sound and durability.”
