Product details

Dayton Audio UM18-22 18" Ultimax DVC Subwoofer 2 ohms Per Coil

If you want outrageous amounts of bass, you gotta move some air

With the UM18-22 Ultimax 18" driver, Dayton Audio has taken everything about the respected Dayton Audio Ultimax subwoofers to the extreme! Providing over 2" of peak-to-peak excursion, the Ultimax 18 sweeps over six liters of air with each stroke! Truly not for the faint of heart!

An audio bulldozer with the finesse of a sports car

Like the rest of the Ultimax series, the UM18-22 plays it clean, low, fast, and LOUD. Designed to excel in either sealed or vented enclosures, it features an ultra-powerful triple stack of high-grade ferrite ceramic magnets for ultra-high force and exceptional control, plus dual aluminum shorting rings above and below the magnetic gap for minimized inductance, "faster"-sounding bass response, and perfect magnetic symmetry. The voice coil diameter has been increased to 3 inches, for even more thermal dissipation area that allows the 18" model to withstand 1,000 watts of punishing bass power continuously without thermal fatigue. Dual 2-ohm voice coils allow for stereo 2 ohm operation, or mono operation in 1 ohm or 4 ohm configurations, for true design flexibility.

Built to produce massive low frequency output and keep on doing it

The huge 18" Nomex honeycomb composite curved cone features woven fiberglass outer skins for the ultimate in rigidity and resistance to damage, while the "tall-boy" rubber surround with integral gasket supports extreme stroke with linearity and durability. Dual 8" spiders are mirror-imaged, to keep the 2" of excursion completely linear and provide cancellation of distortion due to compliance asymmetry, for ultra-low mechanical distortion even at the outer limits of travel. And it's all held in perfect alignment by a rigid cast aluminium 12-spoke frame, for stability in any mounting position.

Put your home's construction to the test with the phenomenal bass output of this 18" beast!

Feel Maximum Power On The Road

The Ultimax UM18-22 18" Subwoofer delivers more than enough power to rock the road ways. The sub is a perfect pick to add massive low end to your mobile audio speaker build. If you are looking for fast, articulate bass that really fills your car, look no further than the UM18-22.

Build Your Own Personal Cinema

Not only is the UM18-22 great for car audio, it fits perfectly at home in your theater or listening room. The detailed response and low end strength lets you feel the rumble in your movies and gives you a concert-like music listening experience.

Cabinet Recommendations

Sealed (home theater/music): 4 cubic ft. (net internal, not including driver volume) produces an f3 of 33 Hz with a 0.85 Qtc alignment
Vented: 6 cubic ft. (net internal, not including driver or port volume) produces an f3 of 22 Hz. Larger cabinets and lower tuning frequencies are possible.

Note: All specifications are derived with voice coils wired in series.

Fantastic 18'' sub drivers I purchased two of them & built my own ported boxes to house them into the sub base that these things produce will certainly put a smile on your face. I am over the moon with these subwoofer drivers the base is tight controlled and articulate far better than I ever imagined and much louder deeper than my previous 15'' subdrivers which I sold to purchase the Dayton 18''. You have to hear them in your room to apprecia...

Built a 328 liter ported enclosure for the UM18. Below 20Hz it's destroying my PB16 Ultra :)

Brutal. I am using a 10" version in my own subwoofer, recommended this one to a client. It's big and can handle a lot of power and excursion. Will be using it in a 120l sealed box with some EQ.

By tk. on 22 March 2020

The speaker was delivered on time. No damage, neither to the packaging nor to the unit itself. The loudspeaker is well manufactured. The connection terminals accept and hold the 2.5mm2 cables perfectly and ensure a perfect connection. The rubber seal at the bottom of the basket provides an airtight connection to the cabinet. In the 270 liter closed box I built, powerful and precise bass down to below 18Hz (f3, with Roomgain) is acchieved wi...

Great speaker !

By Tomasz K. on 9 October 2019

I bought this subwoofer and made a 150 litre sealed box with 36mm (2x18) thick mdf and ran it on an 1500 watt amp with a mini dsp for tuning, so far I’m really happy, it seems to perform very well against my svs sb 2000s - I have 2 stacked in a corner and the um18 in the other corner, ive not took any measurements yet but I’m very impressed so far regarding the 25 to 30hz performance. Sound imports were really helpful in providing all the inf...

Exelent product !!

By Jussi T. on 16 October 2018

Heb 2 van deze ultimax. Ze gaan diep en nog belangrijker, ze klinken in een gesloten kast veel sneller dan je zou verwachten. Wel zwaar EQ lift onder de 50 herz en een zware versterker gebruiken. Mijn 2 x 450 watt rms versterker haalt nog lang niet het uiterste uit de speaker. Blijft goed klinken tot de limit lampjes aangaan.
