QSC KS118 – the heavy artillery for professional low-end
The QSC KS118 is a high-performance active 18-inch subwoofer designed for applications where maximum output and powerful, deep low-frequency reproduction are key. This impressive subwoofer is ideal for mobile DJs, bands, clubs, events, AV productions, and professional rental companies.
The KS118 features an 18-inch long-excursion direct-radiating woofer, driven by a powerful 3600-watt Class-D amplifier module. With a maximum SPL of 136 dB, this subwoofer can produce a massive amount of low-end, while the built-in DSP provides control, protection, and precise tuning.
A particularly strong feature of the KS118 is the ability to use the subwoofer in both omnidirectional and cardioid modes. A cardioid configuration requires a minimum of two KS118s. This allows you to better direct the low-frequency energy forward and limit unwanted low frequencies behind the system.
The KS118 also features an adjustable crossover, delay, and various Scenes that can be saved and recalled. This makes it highly flexible for use within different professional PA configurations.
Despite its substantial size, the KS118 is practically designed for mobile use. The rugged 15 mm birch plywood enclosure, comfortable handles, and four heavy-duty swivel casters make transport and setup significantly easier.
Combine the KS118 with powerful tops from the QSC K.2 series or other professional PA speakers, and you have a system ready for large events and demanding applications.
