Electro-Voice EVIVA 18SP 18" Active Subwoofer (Black)
Electro-Voice EVIVA 18SP Black delivers 1000W low-frequency power with deep, punchy bass.
The Electro-Voice EVIVA 18SP Black is a high-performance 18" active subwoofer designed to deliver powerful, extended low-frequency output for musicians, DJs, and small to medium-sized venues.
As part of the EVIVA family, it is built for rapid deployment, combining user-friendly controls with a robust yet portable design that allows for efficient single-person setup.
Powered by a 1000W Class-D amplifier, the EVIVA 18SP delivers a maximum SPL of 132 dB with a wide operating range of 38 Hz – 200 Hz (-10 dB), providing deep, impactful bass that adds weight and authority to any PA system. This makes it an ideal partner for EVIVA 12P and EVIVA 15P speakers, forming a complete full-range sound system for live music and DJ applications.
The rear control panel offers simple system optimisation with selectable Music and Live modes, a switchable low-pass filter at 100 Hz (optimised for EVIVA 12P/15P) or 150 Hz, and polarity control between Normal and Reverse. This allows precise alignment with your main speakers for tight, controlled bass response in different acoustic environments.
Connectivity is flexible and professional, with two XLR/TRS combo line inputs and two XLR pass-through outputs for easy system expansion. Housed in a durable 15 mm plywood enclosure with textured paint and a powder-coated steel grille, the EVIVA 18SP is built to withstand the demands of mobile use and repeated transport.
Weighing 30.7 kg, the EVIVA 18SP features durable metal side handles, anti-skid feet, and an integrated M20 threaded pole mount plate for mounting full-range speakers above the subwoofer. Compatible with standard M20 poles and tripod stands, it offers a professional and practical solution for portable PA systems and fixed installations alike.
