Just wondering if they are out of production or still going strong Smile

Nothing more to be said there Smile

You got some good knowledge regarding EV. Thanks for sharing 🙂

But one question.. Is the EVX 180B discontinued or still in production? Not many dealers have them anymore.



 

The EVX 180 B is no longer in production. It was replaced by the DVF 4180 as Electro-voice’s latest top of the line 18 inch woofer for touring. The EVX 180 B was also the last woofer in which, was classified Electro-voice’s best sold publically to a select few authorised Electro-voice retail stores.  

 

Like JBL, Electro-voice chose to no longer sell their premium raw woofers to the public. The few dealers that possess new old stock of the Electro-voice EVX 180 B today, charge an astronomical price because they are considered rare.  

 

Best Regards,

Elliot Thompson

The X Sub is shown on Electro-voice’s website so I am uncertain. Electro-voice may just have it there for basic information. Their new top tier model is the X12-128 Double Eighteen to compliment the X Line Advance Series.

Its just sad. But thats how the game works today.
Im just happy to have 10 of these puppys in good working order. Just sitting on the shelfs.

EVX 180B and Fane Colossus 18XB are two drivers that i really appreciate.
Been in the game for so many years, and are still going strong if cared for, just a little bit.

Xmax isnt everything.
Can't say i have heard every driver on the market, but these two are for sure some of the best sounding drivers i have owned.

And nothing beats the price on the Fane's...!
