Members roccoboy Posted December 23, 2005 Members Share Posted December 23, 2005 I know that this gear is not tier one pro gear but there's a set of Eliminators i single 18 subs with the matching Eliminator i 1x15 mains to be had for about $600. For a weekend warrior rock band (we don't play that loud) would they be passable? I had set my sights on some powered Yorkville NX750's to be coupled with a LS800P powered sub. I know from an equipment point of view it's apples and oranges but at a cost difference of about $1800 (less the cost of a power amp) I wonder whether they can be really unusable gear.

Members Scodiddly Posted December 23, 2005 Members Share Posted December 23, 2005 I haven't used those models, but I do have a pair of the cheaper 1x15 "Force" cabinets from EV. I like them - not super loud, but they do sound nice. For me at least, EV has always been one of the better companies at tuning the bass end of a box.

Members Bears Posted October 18, 2008 Members Share Posted October 18, 2008 EV Eliminators are a good sounding and well built series. They have been around for a loooong time so I'd say it is a good deal if the speakers are not really beat or really old. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Unalaska Posted October 18, 2008 Members Share Posted October 18, 2008 Sounds like a great deal to me. I like the eliminators though the sub isn't the most efficient. Make sure you have an active crossover before the amp stage. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members georgestrings Posted October 18, 2008 Members Share Posted October 18, 2008 I have a set of the Eliminator 15+horn tops, and they sound pretty good - I just wouldn't put alot of power through them - 300-400 watts, max... If they're in good working order, I'd say that $600 is a pretty decent deal for those tops and subs... - georgestrings Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members agedhorse Posted October 18, 2008 Members Share Posted October 18, 2008 They are an ok speaker, 300 watts per driver maximum. That's a good, realistic powering for the Force and EVM drivers (Force 15 in the tops and EVM-18B in the sub). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
