What is the PreSonus AIR18s Active Subwoofer?
The PreSonus AIR18s is a 1,200-watt, 18-inch powered subwoofer engineered for high-performance sound reinforcement.

Maximum Impact: PreSonus AIR18s Active Subwoofer
The PreSonus AIR18s is built to provide the foundation for any professional sound system. Available at Gigstore, this 18-inch active subwoofer is a top choice for event rental companies in Dubai and live music venues in Abu Dhabi. Its 1,200W of peak power ensures that your audience doesn't just hear the music—they feel it. Designed with a rugged birch plywood enclosure, it is as durable as it is powerful, standing up to the demands of professional touring and high-heat UAE environments.
What sets the AIR18s apart is its versatile digital processing. The back-panel LCD allows you to quickly tailor the sub’s response to your specific venue. Whether you need the ultra-low extension of the "Mo' Bass" preset for a dance club or the tight, percussive "Punch" preset for a live rock band, the AIR18s adapts instantly. For professional setups, the integrated alignment delay (up to 12ms) and polarity invert make it easy to time-align the sub with your full-range tops or create cardioid sub arrays.

Frequently Asked Questions
Does this subwoofer come with wheels?
Yes! The PreSonus AIR18s includes a set of heavy-duty, removable casters in the box, making it much easier to transport for mobile applications in the UAE.
Can I use this with other speaker brands?
Absolutely. Because the AIR18s features a variable low-pass filter and standard XLR inputs/outputs, it can be used to add bass to any active or passive sound system.
What is Cardioid Mode?
Cardioid mode allows you to use two AIR18s subwoofers together to direct the bass energy forward toward the crowd while canceling it out behind the speakers, which is great for reducing stage noise.
