NEXT Pro Audio SP12
Description.
The NEXT Pro Audio SP12 is the latest addition to the range released at ISE2025. Featuring twin 12" low frequency drivers and a centrally mounted high frequency horn which can be hand rotated to suit either portrait or landscape applications. The high frequency section utilises a 1.4" two way ring radiator with a 3" voice coil for the MF and a 2" for the HF.
The SP12 features an integrated 3-channel UMAC class D amplifier module with integrated DSP. Control is via the newly released NEXT X-Net platform and audio inputs can be provided as either analogue or AES and power is via Powercon TRUE1.
Both U-Brackets and mounting frames are available for either portrait or landscape orientation. Additionally an optional raincover is available for outdoor use.
