Audio professionals, musicians, and mobile entertainers in need of a compact 2.1 PA system will be impressed with the LD Systems DAVE 18 G4X, a powered 2.1 sound system with a 18" subwoofer and two 8" satellites that's well suited for a variety of applications, including live bands, DJs, backyard parties, singer/songwriters, bars, clubs, cafes, and more. The integrated 4000W peak amplifier powers the 18" woofer and the two satellites, which contain an 8" midrange driver and two 0.5" tweeters, providing a 30 Hz to 20 kHz (-10 dB) frequency response and a max SPL of 134 dB, plenty of volume to reach the back of the room.
Inputs 1-2 feature combo XLR-1/4" connectors that are switchable between mic, line, and instrument, while inputs 3 and 4 are a stereo pair of combo XLR-1/4" and stereo RCA connectors. Inputs 5-6 feature an optical SPDIF input that's switchable to the built-in Bluetooth receiver. There are two speakON connectors (L, R) for connecting the satellites. Channels 1 and 2 features gain controls, 2-band EQ, and a reverb send with a choice of 3 reverb presets. Channel 3-4 and 5-6 have gain controls. There is a main level control as well as a sub volume control and a high-frequency volume control. The DAVE 18 G4X includes a power cord.
