Aangeboden: 4 stuks electro-voice xlc-118 subwoofers, compleet met transport rig. Deze krachtige subwoofers leveren een indrukwekkende basweergave en zijn ideaal voor professionele geluidsversterking
This is a fair-to-strong ask for a serious rigged sub package. At €600, it lands a little above the €575 median but well inside the normal spread, and it sits comfortably below the €1,096 75th percentile, so it does not read as ambitious.
The appeal here is the scale: XLC-118s are built for real output, and four cabinets plus transport rig makes this the kind of turnkey lot that suits mobile sound, club installs, or a buyer who values logistics as much as raw SPL. If the boxes are structurally sound, drivers are original, and the rigging hardware is complete, this is a practical buy rather than a curiosity — the main check is simply that all four units are healthy and the flyware is present and serviceable.
Independent perspective — not a price guarantee. Always verify condition, accessories and provenance before purchase.
# Electro-Voice
Electro-Voice was founded in 1927 by Al Kahn and Lou Burroughs in South Bend, Indiana, initially as Radio Engineers before incorporating under its now-iconic name in 1930. The company's name originated from Notre Dame football coach Knute Rockne, who dubbed an early public address system his "electric voice"—a system designed to help him communicate across multiple practice fields. This humble basement startup evolved into a cornerstone of American audio engineering, relocating to Buchanan, Michigan in 1946 to expand its manufacturing and research capabilities.
The brand built its reputation primarily on professional audio equipment, particularly microphones, loudspeakers, and horn drivers. Electro-Voice pioneered numerous innovations including the hum-bucking coil for microphones, the Compound Diffraction Horn, stereo magnetic phono cartridges, and constant-directivity horn technology. From the 1940s through the 1970s, EV stood alongside industry titans like Altec Lansing, JBL, and Klipsch, with systems widely deployed in cinemas, concert halls, and broadcast facilities.
Today, Electro-Voice occupies a unique position straddling professional audio and high-end consumer markets. The brand is respected among both vintage audio collectors and contemporary sound engineers for its engineering rigor, high-efficiency designs, and naturally dynamic sound character. While primarily known for pro audio applications, EV's historical consumer loudspeaker lines and continued innovation maintain its relevance among discerning audiophiles seeking honest, efficient reproduction over marketing-driven aesthetics.
