Overview
The NEXO L18 is a compact sub with a single 18 inch long excursion neodymium driver, extending low end down to 32 Hz with 140 dB peak SPL. It is designed with the same footprint as the NEXO P15, so the two fly or stack together as a neat column.
The curved Baltic birch and poplar plywood cabinet has threaded inserts for mounting accessories and an M20 pole fitting on top, and it can run in standard or cardioid mode. The L18 suits live music venues, larger churches, events and hire companies running P15 systems, and works well as a drum fill.

Forefront Tip
Behind a drummer, an L18 under a P15 wedge makes a powerful drum fill without a separate rig. For mains, try three L18s in a cardioid stack with the middle one turned around, which keeps low end off the stage and out of the vocal mics.
