Description

ZXA1-Sub 12" Powered Subwoofer. Extending the ZXA1’s size-defying performance and sleek styling into the low-end realm, the ZXA1-Sub packs a 700-watt punch into a small, low-profile wood enclosure. Match this powered subwoofer with a pair of ZXA1s or other smaller powered speakers and hear just how big a small rig can sound. Weighing in at a mere 46 lb. , the ZXA1-Sub won’t break your back during transport and it easily fits into tight spaces. Whether you’re a DJ looking to add a deep thump to your set or you’re a live performer wanting to give the highs and midst some breathing room, this subwoofer has you covered. Take the stereo XLR outputs from your mixer and plug into the stereo XLR inputs of the ZXA1-Sub, then patch the stereo outputs into a pair of powered main speakers. The ZXA1-Sub is equipped with a 100Hz high-pass filter that keeps everything below 100Hz in the sub so your main speakers' power amp doesn't have to process the low end. Low frequencies are the most taxing aspect of any signal for a power amp, so not only will you get a perfectly tuned low end, your main speakers will operate with much greater efficiency.

  • so read the revievs on this bad boy and decided to give it a try
This little 12 inch speaker is No Joke. I'm a DJ who specializes in Reggae music and if you know anything about Reggae, it's all about the BASS!!! I'm used to 18inch Scoops and Earthquakes, so needless to say I was very, very skeptical of this sub, but being solo now, there is no way I could carry around those other speakers, so read the revievs on this bad boy and decided to give it a try. Boy an I glad I did.. Did a baby shower last weekend for about 100 people with this sub and 2 harbinger tops and the sound was Sweeeeeeet!!! Didn't even have it half way up, not too mention the Bass booster switch on the back. Haven't needed to try that as yet, as i've been very pleased with the sound. This is perfect for me. lightweight, easily fits in my sedan and packs a hell of a punch. Couldn't ask for anything more. A second one will definitely be in my near future. Not sure about stacking them however. I like my Bass on the ground, so will probably do side by side!!! Great Speaker. ... show more

  • Best Mate for the Bose L1 Model II
I hesistated about this purchase but after much browsing of the reviews for this mean punch box I pulled the trigger. My decision was actually very much swayed by my call to EV's tech support. The guy I spoke to seemed very very knwoledgeable and took time to go over specs and compatibility issues. Anyway, I was very much impressed by the build and looks of the Sub when I received it. Funny enough it is about the same weight as my Bose B2 - 46 pounds. I hooked up the Bose L1 and connected the EV to the L1 Bass Line out connection. Pheeeeew!! Amazing. Don't get me wrong I had the same feeling when I purchased the B2s but on connecting the EV to the L1 I initially thought the B2 was disconnected. I had to put my ears next to it to hear it. The EV killed it, no match. The deep bass from the EV is nothing but amazing. It would be hard to find a better compliment to the L1 out there. I will definitely be purchasing another one for my second L1 setup. By the way you can run a secnd Bass line out from a second L1 power stand to the second Line input connection on the EV if you don't want to spend for a second ZXA1. This thing certainly ROCKS!!!. ... show more

  • More punch and power than it looks.
This was a Warehouse deal but looked brand new out of the box. More punch and power than you would think by the looks of it. Plus it weighs 46 lbs which means a normal person can actually lift it and move it around. I thought this was an exceptionally good deal and it is well put together, I hope and expect it to last. This worked very well for a 5 piece band in a smallish room (150 capacity) and definitely put some whomp in the low end. It's not going to rock an arena but for a low to medium loud band wanting some extra foot in small venues it's great. ... show more

  • Great sub
it’s an extremely great sub good on the lows and has a good punch, but the box and the sub corners came damaged and with scratches

  • Great Clean Bass
Great little sub. I matched these up with two Electro-Voice ZLX12P Two-Way Powered 12" Loudspeakers and it filled out the low end giving them much more body and punchy bass. While you're not getting low, chest rattling bass from them, you're still getting clean sound even at 12 o-clock. From a DJ's perspective, these will work great in any small venue where 25 - 40 or maybe more guest are on the dance floor. ... show more

  • Great sound and size
Solid low end in a small package. I used to haul around a much larger JBL, but no more. To my ear, 1 is great for an average club, and I'm guessing 2-4 of them would be enough for a large outside gig. I pair it with JBL 12" full range, and add yamaha 15 full range speakers at bigger places.

  • Manufacturer Packing Problem
Loved the first one so I bought a second. I haven't ops checked it yet so I'll get back to you on that. What does bother me is the packaging of the product. While it's evident EV takes great pains to ensure their product survives all shipping hazards, I was rather put off when I unpacked this product. One of the three desiccant sacks had ruptured spilling its contents making it difficult to remove the sub from the box and plastic inner wrapper. The desiccant pellets spilled everywhere. And while this was messy, the more troubling mess was the ground/pulverized desiccant material covering the sub case and grill which proved to be quite difficult (to near impossible) to clean. I had to dig out pellets form the grill and other recesses. And the powder still makes the case to look well-worn and gives the impression of being considerably used and slightly mishandled. I own many EV products and have been very pleased with every piece. But I think a better QA inspection in the packing phase could help to prevent repeats of this nature. ... show more

  • Great paired with my ZLX15P
I bought the zlx15p tower, this sub goes amazing with it. I use it for camping trips -rent a cabin, or have people over at home it's perfect setup for what I do. The bass when turned up and volume cranked is pretty astounding for a 12. I was torn between the 18 and the 12. But I enjoy music with punchy fast bass at times. I'm. Pleased with my purchase. ... show more
