Featuring a 12-inch woven Kevlar® woofer and a frequency response of 29.2 Hz to 160 Hz, this subwoofer excels at reproducing deep bass, making it ideal for demanding tasks such as mixing, mastering, sound design, and broadcasting.

With a signal-to-noise ratio of 92 dB, the 12sHO offers precise bass reproduction in any professional studio setup.

Its integration features, including a dedicated crossover and optional high-pass filter bypass, make it a versatile addition to any studio, perfectly complementing powered monitors. The 12sHO is a reliable, high-performance solution for professionals who require pristine low-end detail in their work.
