DB Technologies Vio X12 - 900W 12-inch Powered 2-Way Portable Loudspeaker with 60 x 40-Degree Coverage in Black Finish

The dB Technologies Vio X12 is a premium 12-inch powered 2-way loudspeaker, designed for versatility, power, and high-end audio performance. Part of the Vio X series, this speaker offers impressive output levels with advanced DSP features, making it ideal for standalone PA use, integration with Vio subwoofers, or as a stage monitor, side-fill, or delay in larger sound reinforcement setups. Its robust design, combined with its state-of-the-art technology, ensures that the Vio X12 delivers clear, powerful sound in a compact and durable format.

Powered by a 900W RMS Class-D Digipro G3 amplifier, the Vio X12 can deliver a maximum sound pressure level of 132 dB, making it suitable for a wide range of live sound applications. The speaker is equipped with a 12-inch neodymium woofer and a 1.4-inch high-frequency driver, both designed to provide accurate and dynamic sound reproduction. The frequency response extends from 79 Hz to 21 kHz (-6 dB), covering a broad range of audio frequencies with exceptional clarity.

The advanced DSP processing includes Linear Phase FIR Filters, which ensure phase coherence and precise audio performance from any listening position. The onboard DSP offers several preset configurations, including High Pass Filters (HPF) and dedicated EQ modes for Wedge or Full-Range applications, allowing users to easily adapt the Vio X12 to different environments and needs. Furthermore, the Vio X12 is fully networkable via the RDNet port, allowing real-time control and monitoring through the Aurora Net software on both Windows and Mac platforms.

The Vio X12 is designed with flexibility in mind. Its rugged wooden enclosure, coated with durable polyurea, is built for the rigors of professional use, while its multifunctional design allows it to be used in various configurations. Whether it is stacked, flown, wall-mounted, or used as a floor monitor, the Vio X12 fits seamlessly into any setup. It includes a 36mm pole mount for easy positioning on speaker stands and features 12x M10 rigging points and 4x fast-lock pins for flying or fixed installation. For stage monitor use, it has a 50° wedge angle for optimal sound coverage.

In terms of connectivity, the Vio X12 features a balanced XLR input and output, as well as RJ45 connections for RDNet networking. The PowerCON TRUE1 input and output ensure reliable power connections, even in demanding live sound environments. The user controls include a rotary encoder for selecting between 8 EQ and HPF presets, an input sensitivity potentiometer, and a mic/line switch, providing intuitive control over the system's performance.
