The Auro X12D's drivers are specially designed to provide fast recovery with minimal distortion. The 1.34" high-frequency compression driver is mounted to a 60 x 90-degree horn, which matches the larger dispersion angle of the low-frequency driver. This gives you a balanced sound that will sound great to everybody in your audience, regardless of where they're sitting (especially when it comes to vocals and those critical upper-mid frequencies).
Class D amplifier supplies you with impressive soundIf sound matters to you (and why wouldn't it?), the Samson Auro X12D won't let you down. Its 1,000-watt Class D amplifier delivers sound with impressive clarity and definition, even when you crank it up. This is because the Auro X12D's bi-amplified circuit divides your audio into ranges that are ideally suited for its individual drivers, ensuring that your high and low frequencies are able to pump and thump without distorting.
R.A.M.P. DSP technology delivers optimized audio performancePacked with Samson's proprietary R.A.M.P. (Reactive Alignment/Maximum Protection) DSP technology, the Auro X12D delivers optimized audio performance. R.A.M.P. technology uses automatic EQ adjustments to overcome common issues that often plague traditional loudspeakers, such as masked high frequencies from horn reflections and muddy midrange from woofer surface reflections. On top of that, the Auro X12D's crossover network uses Infinite Impulse Response (IIR) filters and transducer time alignment algorithms to provide you with superb frequency balance. Finally, the Auro X12D's integrated overcurrent and temperature sensors keep it cool, eliminating the need for noisy fans.
Tweakable controls and dual-angle positioning for versatile performanceThe Auro X12D's dedicated 2-channel mixer provides you with a Mic/Line switch on Channel 1, Volume controls for each channel, and a Master Volume for controlling your overall output level, so you can plug in your mic and guitar (or any other line-level source) while maintaining perfect control over your levels. An XLR line output gives you extra routing options for expanding your speaker setup. On top of that, you get a 3-position highpass filter and EQ presets to shape your sound how you want it. Finally, the Auro X12D supports dual-angle floor positioning for using it as a wedge monitor, as well as a built-in 1-3/8" mount for stand and satellite mounting.
