The RCF HDL 12-AS is a powerful and compact 12-inch powered subwoofer designed to complement the HDL 6-A line array system, making it the ideal choice for creating flown clusters with outstanding performance. Equipped with a 12" woofer and a 3" voice coil, the HDL 12-AS delivers deep, punchy bass that extends down to 40 Hz, ensuring rich, full-range audio in a variety of live sound applications. Featuring a 1400W digital amplifier, this subwoofer provides robust power with 700W RMS, offering excellent sound pressure levels and reliable performance. The HDL 12-AS is perfect for medium to large concerts, festivals, and DJ setups where extended low-frequency output is required.

The integration of a built-in digital stereo crossover with adjustable crossover frequencies enables precise system tuning, allowing the subwoofer to seamlessly pair with the HDL 6-A array module or other satellite speakers. The crossover offers selectable low-pass frequencies of 80Hz and 110Hz, ensuring optimal frequency management and smooth integration with full-range speakers. The speaker is equipped with a polarity reverse switch and volume, EQ, phase, and crossover controls for further customization, making it adaptable to different acoustical environments.

With its durable construction, the HDL 12-AS is built to withstand the rigors of touring and demanding live sound events. The cabinet is made from Baltic birch plywood, offering both strength and lightweight portability. The subwoofer is fitted with array fittings and an M20 threaded pole mount for easy integration into rigging systems or mounting on stands. Its heavy-duty steel grille, along with a special transparent-to-sound foam backing, helps protect the internal components from dust and physical damage while maintaining optimal acoustical performance.

Featuring a maximum SPL of 131 dB and an impressive frequency response range of 40 Hz to 120 Hz, the HDL 12-AS provides the deep bass needed to enhance the performance of the HDL 6-A array system. The system's soft limiter ensures that the speaker operates within safe limits, protecting it from overloading and ensuring long-term reliability. Whether used as a stand-alone subwoofer or as part of a larger array system, the HDL 12-AS delivers powerful, distortion-free bass that perfectly complements RCF's line array systems.
