Ultra-durable and Dependable Monitoring

With the Samson RSXM12A monitor integrated into your live system, powerful and efficient performance monitoring stands to benefit DJs, gigging musicians, and live sound engineers alike. This compact, 2-way, active 800-watt workhorse utilizes a 12-inch woofer and a 1-inch tweeter, ensuring the clearest, most focused audio translation possible in a streamlined package for your workspace. A simple Volume knob with XLR/1/4-inch combo input and link connections are provided, in addition to a Monitor and Front of House (FOH) switch, giving you a clear and efficient workflow for multiple applications. It’s rugged, pole-mountable, and easy to carry, making it a true champ for a variety of locations and setups. From bar stage monitoring to larger music venues, live events, and more, the Samson RSXM12A is a fantastically capable and dependable instrument, vocal, and music monitoring solution.

Powered for versatile operation

With 800-watt Class-D output operation, the RSXM12A delivers exceptionally efficient monitored power however you need it. Courtesy of a 12-inch subwoofer and 1-inch tweeter, the RSXM12A can provide dialed-back monitoring when you want it and dependably present stage monitoring when you need it. An integrated switch on the back panel allows you to select between FOH and Monitor to best accommodate the task at hand. Also, you’ll find an XLR/1/4-inch combo connection for hooking up a microphone or line-level signal, plus an XLR linking port beside it. Volume is controlled by way of a master leveler knob, and that’s all there is to it!

Rugged design for all occasions

The RSXM12A is also surprisingly lightweight and compact, boasting built-in carrying handles for the utmost convenience when transporting. Additionally, at the base, the hearty 1-3/8-inch pole mount receiver is ready to easily accommodate elevated setups.

Rattles
I ordered one of these. Noticed at only medium volume it developed a rattle on low notes. I tighten are the fasteners on the cab. (Grill, amplifier chassis, speaker grill etc) made no difference. So I decided to order a 2nd speaker thinking maybe I got a dude. The second speaker also has the exact same rattles. I believe the rattle is coming from the driver itself. I think the woofer is actually contacting part of the horn when the cone starts to have moderate to high excursion. Bummer. Will be sending both of these back this week. Was really hoping these would be nice monitors.
