EAW RSX212L - 500W 2 x 12-inch Powered 2-Way Line Array Loudspeaker with 90 x 12-Degree Coverage in Black Finish

The EAW RSX212L is a 500W powered 2-way line array loudspeaker designed for professional sound applications that require high performance with quick setup and minimal tuning time. Part of the RADIUS series, the RSX212L integrates intelligent features with EAW's renowned acoustical design, delivering an optimal solution for rental firms, system integrators, and venues that need an adaptable and easy-to-use sound system. With its proven sonic performance, efficient setup, and integrated networked capabilities, the RSX212L ensures superior sound coverage in a wide range of applications, from corporate events to live performances.

The RSX212L features two 12-inch low-frequency transducers with 2.5-inch voice coils, providing deep and precise bass response across its operating range of 50 Hz to 19 kHz. The high-frequency section includes two 1-inch exit, 1.7-inch voice coil compression drivers, delivering clear, articulate highs and ensuring excellent performance even in large, high-energy environments. The system's bi-amp configuration, with dedicated amplification for the low and high-frequency drivers, ensures optimal power handling, delivering up to 1000W for the LF and 500W for the HF drivers. This setup allows the RSX212L to achieve a peak output of 142 dB, making it capable of handling the high demands of professional sound systems.

The RSX212L's line array design provides a nominal beamwidth of 90° horizontal and 12° vertical, ensuring broad yet controlled coverage that is essential for both large and small venues. The speaker's precise vertical coverage helps maintain clarity across the entire audience area, preventing unwanted sound dispersion and ensuring that every listener receives high-quality audio. EAW's advanced DSP processing, including Focusing and DynO algorithms, guarantees pristine impulse response and tonal accuracy across all output levels. The result is clear, coherent sound, whether you're filling a small room or a large arena.

The RSX212L incorporates EAW's OptiLogic technology, which uses onboard infrared sensors and accelerometers to automatically detect the array configuration and optimize its performance in real-time. This feature eliminates the need for lengthy setup and tuning processes, significantly reducing labor time while ensuring the system delivers peak performance. The EAWmosaic app, available on iOS, further enhances ease of use, providing system prediction, control, and monitoring from anywhere in the venue. This intuitive app allows sound engineers to make adjustments on the fly, ensuring the system always performs optimally.

Networking is made easy with full Dante integration on the RSX212L, providing digital audio distribution via Ethernet and offering loop-thru capabilities for seamless system expansion. The speaker also supports analog redundancy, ensuring reliable signal transfer even in the event of a failure. The RSX212L includes two Neutrikx etherCON RJ-45 connectors for Ethernet/Dante communication, providing high-quality data transmission and easy system integration into complex audio networks.

The speaker's durable design includes an LCD screen on the amplifier panel for easy user interface (UI) navigation, and a user-definable logo LED for visual feedback during operation. The push-button rotary encoder makes it easy to adjust settings, and the unit's compact size and robust build ensure that it can be transported and deployed in a variety of environments. With a weight of 82 lbs and dimensions of 143 x 20.38 x 23.5 inches, the RSX212L strikes a balance between portability and high-performance output, making it a versatile solution for professional sound systems.
