Sophisticated DSP processing

At Sweetwater, we're impressed by the DXS18XLF-D's intelligent DSP processing. Yamaha's D-XSUB LF processing gives you total command of your low end. Choose between a NORMAL mode that offers balanced low-frequency response and a BOOST mode that provides tighter, more focused bass with extra punch. Beyond that, XTENDED LF mode drops your low-end even lower, yielding chest-thumping low-frequencies that must be heard to be believed. Ensure a clean stage monitoring environment, thanks to the DXS18XLF-D's Cardioid Mode, which effectively decreases the sound pressure onstage while increasing the low-frequency output directed towards your audience. Despite all this powerful DSP, the DXS18XLF-D remains easy to use, thanks to optimized factory presets and an intuitive LCD screen.

Custom-designed transducer

The Yamaha DXS18XLF-D is loaded with a great-sounding, custom-designed transducer. Its durable die-cast aluminium frame and 4-inch voice coil deliver impressive bass response, even at cranked volumes. Experience extraordinary low-frequency linearity, thanks to the DXS18XLF-D's dual damper, which mitigates unwanted vibration during high-output situations.

Built-in Dante capabilities

Integrating the DXS18XLF-D with Yamaha consoles and other Dante devices is a breeze. The DXS18XLF-D features a built-in 2-in/2-out Dante interface, along with sample rate conversion, allowing 48kHz device compatibility. Benefit from simplified patching with Yamaha's CL/QL digital consoles from their I/O device display, while TF console users can select Quick Config for fast, easy setup. You can also combine the DXS18XLF-D's Analog I/O with Dante I/O, supplying you with flexible routing and system configuration. Or use the Dante break-IN and break-OUT function to act as a simple I/O box. Beyond that, Yamaha’s ProVisionare Control software for Windows and ProVisionare Touch for iPad are also Dante compatible, giving you added remote management of your system.
