EV ZXA1 Sub $500<br /> This small light sub is designed to add bass to your 8” ZXA 1 tops. Digital processing enables this 12” Sub to produce solid sounding bass. For a portable system for corporate events and even to do karaoke or a wedding DJ set this sub could be a great solution.<br /> A quick look at the specs, Frequency Response (-3 dB) 53–93 Hz @ 126 dB (Half Space) shows that you should be looking elsewhere if want to rattle teeth.
This sub, for the money, will blow your mind. Keep in mind it's only a 700W 12" but the bass is punchy and accurate. The volume is far greater than you'd think when you see the physical size if the sub. Sound quality is great. Features are basic but it's only a sub so it doesn't need a DSP, etc. I match this up with a pair of EV ZLX12p. They compliment each other perfectly. The ZLX's limit a little easier than I'd like but the ZAX1-Sub fills in perfectly in the low end where the ZLX's limit.
I recently purchased the EV ZXA1-Sub. While setting up for a Sweet 16 party, I overheard the guests making comments on how small the speakers were and that the music will not be loud enough for them. Within 3 mins of turning the music on, the guests were shocked! I wish I had a pic of the look on their faces. They could not believe the power and sound coming out of these subs. I have been dj'ing since 1981. I have always used EV speakers and I highly recommend the EV ZXA1 and ZXA1-Sub powered speakers for the beginner or the experienced DJ. You will not be disappointed. The prices here at KPODJ cannot be beat.
I purchased one ZXA1 Sub last year and finally purchased the other one. Wish I purchased this sooner. The sound is unbelievable. Received alot of compliments. One guest asked where are the real speakers because he could not believe the sound that the EV tops and bottom were producing. These subs are perfect for a mobile DJ. <br /> I have been dj'ing since 1981 and EV are the only speakers i have ever used. Highly recommend EV speakers to everyone.
Eventually you will move down to a light 12" sub so why not just buy this one now? It's light for a sub and compact. You'll never beat 46 lbs and when you have tons of other gear you'll be glad you didn't get the 150 lb 18" sub. Also, you have to know your audience. The weddings I do are mostly in the range of 100 to 200 people typically. If you have good speakers to pair with just one of these you'll be fine. It actually does pack a punch for a 12" and the compact size allows for easy transport. It won't blow the roof off but that's not the intent of something like this.
Ordered this guy for the portability and to add a little low end. First one I received didn't work, but KPODJ was all over helping me with the return and I had a new one in less than a week. Haven't used it for a gig yet, but sounds great in the garage. I'll have to follow up my review on the product once field tested.
This sub is definitely well made, with stereo inputs and outputs, but the issue is that its very expensive for what it actually does. There is no crossover making it tough to use with speakers that don't have a crossover. The bass definitely does not get low enough and the boost doesn't do much for me. The limiting is also very strange on it since I had 1 input in at 12 o clock and it was limiting very quickly.
