I have owned several sub in the past. ETX 18SP, Qsc HPR 181, KSUB, JBL PRX18. As an event DJ I often would have smaller venues that the ETX (15, 18 SP) could not fit. So, I moved to the Evole 50 system (pair). These systems work great up to about 300. Bass is reasonable. No earthquake level. However, I was looking for something that was small enough to fit in small suv that packed punch of the Kw181, that would harmonically balance with the evolve 50’s.I tested crossover at both 8o and 100 hz and found 80 to be the tightest and clean bass. While running the system and 12:00 o’clock position with Mxc8000 the run would rattle the pictures on the wall and anything loose close by. This happens even at lowers levels. More ouch and headroom than the ETX 18SP. The limit light would come on on the ETX with hip hop and R /B. Music. Not so on this KS212C (Lots of headroom with 3600 watts). So if you need a KW kick in an small portable package this is the one to beat!Thank zZounds for having my back and the best plans!
