Features

Hardwood Enclosures and High-Quality Drivers

The XPRS 12 speakers are housed in durable 15 mm birch plywood cabinets, delivering natural and dynamic sound reproduction. Pioneer’s AFAST technology minimises standing waves that can cause muffled low to mid frequency response, while an acoustic tube inside the cabinet absorbs these waves to enhance low-frequency performance.

Equipped with lightweight 12-inch ferrite low-frequency drivers and 1.75-inch titanium diaphragm compression drivers, the speakers produce clear, full-range sound with low distortion even at high output levels.

Powersoft Class D Amplifiers for Reliable Performance

Powered by Powersoft Class D amplifier modules, the XPRS 12 delivers 2400 W peak and 1200 W continuous output, matching the power of larger standalone amplifiers. The built-in Power Factor Correction (PFC) reduces power consumption while maintaining consistent performance in any environment.

The auto-ranging power supply supports global voltages, allowing you to use the speakers anywhere, including venues with generators or temporary power sources.

Advanced Protection Features

Comprehensive protection systems safeguard the amplifier, drivers, and power supply to ensure long-lasting, reliable operation:

Amplifier Protection

• Thermal limiting to prevent overheating
• Output overcurrent protection reduces output to safe levels

Speaker Protection

• DC offset removal shuts down the speaker to prevent damage
• Stationary High Frequency Protection guards against loud bursts such as feedback
• Input voltage limiter (Peak and RMS)
• Output voltage limiter cuts low-frequency and compression drivers separately at peak levels

Power Protection

• AC mains over-voltage protection against power surges

A status LED on the front panel indicates power, limiter, or off status for easy visual monitoring.

Four EQ Modes for Versatile Sound

Instantly select from four EQ presets using buttons on the back panel to suit different genres and environments:

• Flat: Neutral reproduction of source audio
• Bass +: Enhanced bass for dance music and energetic events
• Speech: Clear vocal emphasis for seminars and presentations
• Wedge: Reduced low frequencies for balanced floor monitor sound

Flexible Mounting Options

The rotatable horn provides a 90° x 60° dispersion pattern and can be rotated 90 degrees for vertical or horizontal mounting, adapting to your venue’s coverage needs.

Wedge Shape and Polemount Socket

The wedge-shaped cabinet is ideal as a floor monitor. The polemount socket supports straight or 7° tilt mounting, allowing precise sound direction.

Multiple Inputs and Outputs for Easy Setup

Connect microphones and external devices simultaneously with two balanced XLR/TRS combo inputs and an unbalanced RCA input. Each input has individual controls plus master controls for lines one and two. Two balanced XLR through outputs enable daisy-chaining to other speakers or subwoofers.
