The JBL EON618S active subwoofer is relatively small and, thanks to the handles located on the side panels, is convenient to carry. At the same time, the device develops significant acoustic pressure for confident sounding of rather large rooms and has a thoughtful control system. JBL EON618S is made in a wooden case with a black DuraFlex finish and is equipped with a removable protective steel mesh, with powder coating and additional damping with an acoustically transparent mesh. The subwoofer is equipped with a large 18-inch (457 mm) bass bass located on the front panel with a two-inch voice coil manufactured by JBL. The bass mount mounted on a molded chassis and equipped with a powerful magnetic system is loaded on two phase inverters, the outlet openings of which are also located in front. The case of this acoustics has a phase inverter type and is made of birch plywood.
