These are great subs. Great bass response and easy on your back! I've done several gigs wth these ranging from corporate gatherings to high school Homecoming dances. I mainly have load in and out by myself and with these i'm able to have that great sound and professional look without breaking my back or bank. You will not regret buying this sub, even one will rock!
I have been using these for 3 years. And used with professional acts indoor and out covering indoor to 25,000 square feet rooms up to 105db 100’ from the stage with clarity. They provide a nice tight bass. I have also used QSC KW181 and prefer the EV for a tighter bass response and better control over the QSC. I will add two more to my rig before I would step up to a higher quality(price) such as RCF. These are the best subs I have ever found in this price range and I have never had a complaint from the acts I have worked with.
