Yamaha - CXS18 MK3
Yamaha's active subwoofer, in the new CXS18 MK3 version, is for you who want to structure your audio system with a solid, accurate base. It uses optimised band-pass architecture and an exclusive long-excursion transducer to deliver clean, deep bass without annoying interference. You also benefit from an advanced acoustic design incorporating intelligent DSP-compatible processing, which refines the frequency response and stabilises the whole system even at high levels. As a result, your installation gains in coherence and impact, with bass reproduction that remains legible and controlled.
Presentation
In a more advanced configuration, the CXS18 MK3 works in synergy with compatible amplifiers to exploit precise settings. You can easily adjust the response thanks to dedicated processing that optimises the behaviour of the subwoofer. This interaction makes it possible to achieve controlled, consistent bass in different environments. This gives you greater flexibility and control over your sound, without having to make complex adjustments each time you use it.
With its band-pass structure, this Sub effectively limits internal air noise and improves overall clarity. You'll quickly notice improved definition in the lower frequencies, even at high volumes. This design favours stable, clean reproduction, making the mix even easier to read. The result remains constant, making it easy to integrate into a variety of systems.
The CXS18 MK3's multi-ply cabinet provides appreciable solidity during frequent handling. Its polyurea coating resists shocks and abrasion, providing effective protection over time. You can move your equipment without worrying too much about wear and tear. This robustness contributes to the longevity of the casing, while maintaining stable performance with every use.
For ambitious multi-unit set-ups requiring precise control, Yamaha's PX and PC-D series amplifiers have a dedicated cardioid mode. This allows you to reduce sound pressure at the rear and concentrate energy towards the audience. This approach improves comfort on stage and clarifies the overall sound. Sound organisation becomes clearer and more controlled in demanding environments.
