Supplies an Accurate Picture of Your Mix’s Low End
Building upon the success of Kali Audio’s original WS-12 subwoofer, the WS-12 V2 flaunts several new improvements. First and foremost, this iteration of the WS-12 comes with a built-in M10 pole cup for pole-mounting a full-range PA speaker. The other major feature is the 6dB+ signal-to-noise ratio improvement. This powered subwoofer is suitable for stage and studio applications, thanks to its 1,000 watts of power, 23-200Hz frequency response, and 123dB maximum SPL output. Rear-mounted dip switches give you total control over the crossover frequency, polarity, gain adjustment, input dBu, and the standby feature. Beyond that, there’s also a footswitch jack for subwoofer bypass. Whether you require a greater low-end punch in the studio or a roadworthy PA subwoofer, order the Kali Audio WS-12 V2 from Sweetwater and get the job done right.
Clean, punchy low end
Thanks to its 12-inch low-frequency driver and optimized circuitry, the Kali Audio WS-12 V2 offers ample output and bandwidth to handle any playback situation. It delivers clean, chest-thumping bass all the way down to 23Hz at -10dB. That sort of low-end extension easily tackles bass-heavy genres like EDM and hip-hop like a champion. And since it’s packing 1,000 watts, this subwoofer can deliver up to 123dB max SPL — loud enough to be used for light PA work!


Suitable for studio work and live music
The WS-12 V2 is incredibly versatile. This powered subwoofer is dynamite in the studio. It boasts a wide frequency response from 23-200Hz. Plus, the low-noise port tube eliminates chuffing, leading to a cleaner sound and better mixing decisions. Studio work isn’t all the WS-12 V2 can do, though. Kali Audio outfitted the subwoofer with a 10mm pole cup so you can use it as part of a larger PA setup for live music. The compact wooden chassis and robust steel grille ensure complete durability onstage and in the studio.
Configurable design matches your needs
One look at the WS-12 V2’s back panel is enough to confirm that this subwoofer is seriously capable. It has a robust selection of configuration options. The rear-mounted dip switches offer complete control over five parameters. First, you get 13 selectable crossovers between 40Hz and 140Hz, plus LFE and external crossover settings. Plus, you can select between four preset gain adjustment settings or switch the sub’s polarity. The final two dip switches customize the maximum input dBu and activate the 20-minute standby feature.
