The EAW SB828P Black is a high-performance 4000W passive subwoofer designed to provide unparalleled bass reproduction in large-scale, professional audio installations. As part of the SB Series, the SB828P pushes the boundaries of subwoofer technology, offering exceptional output, clarity, and reliability. Designed with two 18-inch Tetracoil dual voice coil transducers, this subwoofer is engineered for high-output performance, making it ideal for applications such as concert venues, theaters, stadiums, clubs, and arenas where deep, impactful bass is required. With a maximum SPL of 143 dB, the SB828P delivers extraordinary bass pressure and coverage, ensuring a powerful low-frequency foundation for large, acoustically demanding spaces.

The SB828P Black features two 18-inch cone drivers, each equipped with a 4.5-inch Tetracoil dual voice coil. These advanced transducers are engineered to provide superior performance, with ultra-linear suspension behavior that delivers exceptional impulse response and minimal distortion even at extreme output levels. The Tetracoil design offers improved thermal and power handling, making it ideal for high-output applications. The vented enclosure, combined with the innovative ultra-low turbulence port, minimizes distortion and maximizes bass output. The result is deep, clean, and powerful low frequencies, making the SB828P a perfect choice for venues that require tight, controlled bass that remains clear and punchy even at high SPL levels.

With an operating range of 25 Hz to 130 Hz, the SB828P covers both deep sub-bass and mid-bass frequencies, allowing it to integrate seamlessly with full-range loudspeakers and other subwoofers in a system. Whether for low-end reinforcement in a concert or providing immersive bass in a cinema, the SB828P delivers the full spectrum of low frequencies needed for a truly dynamic sound experience. Its horizontal and vertical 360 beamwidth ensures uniform bass coverage across the entire venue, whether the subwoofer is placed on the ground or suspended in the air.

Designed for flexibility, the SB828P Black can be either ground stacked or permanently suspended, thanks to the 16 M10 mounting points integrated into the enclosure. These mounting points allow for a wide range of installation configurations, making it ideal for venues with limited floor space or for installations where aesthetic considerations are important. The subwoofer’s compact height and depth, combined with configurable sound-isolating feet, make it easy to install in various room types and orientations, whether in vertical or horizontal placement. This flexibility, along with the ability to be suspended, ensures that the SB828P can be seamlessly integrated into a variety of setups.

The SB828P Black’s design is also built for durability and reliable long-term use. Constructed from high-quality materials, the enclosure is rugged enough to withstand the demands of permanent installations while providing superior acoustic performance. The subwoofer is finished with a durable black paint, making it suitable for both indoor and outdoor use. The powder-coated perforated steel grille protects the drivers from damage, while ensuring optimal sound dispersion. The terminal strip and loop-through NL4 connectors provide secure and easy-to-maintain connections, making the setup process hassle-free and ensuring the system remains reliable for years to come.

With a total weight of 200 lbs and dimensions of 21 x 52.5 x 30 inches, the SB828P Black is designed for easy installation while maintaining the robust construction needed for high-output subwoofer performance. Whether ground stacked or suspended, this subwoofer is a top choice for large-scale installations where high bass impact and clarity are essential.
