Description
The DAS Audio EVENT-M12A is a professional active 2-way coaxial monitor designed for musicians, stages, bands, rental companies, and professional live sound applications. Thanks to its compact size, high output, and precise dispersion, the EVENT-M12A is suitable as both a stage monitor and a point-source speaker.
The EVENT-M12A utilizes an advanced coaxial design, where the 12″ low-frequency driver and the high-frequency compression driver are placed on the same acoustic axis. This results in highly coherent sound reproduction and even coverage. The 12″ driver features a 3″ voice coil, while the compression driver has a 2.5″ voice coil.
The speaker delivers 1000 W continuous power and 2000 W peak power via the integrated Class-D amplifier. The maximum SPL is 136 dB, while the maximum linear SPL according to AES75 is 132 dB. This gives the EVENT-M12A sufficient headroom for demanding professional monitoring and compact PA applications.
The frequency range spans from 60 Hz to 20 kHz (-10 dB). The specially designed horn provides controlled dispersion of 50° horizontal × 70° vertical. This ensures that the artist or speaker on stage receives a clear and consistent sound image.
For signal processing, the EVENT-M12A features an advanced 24-bit DSP with FIR processing. This achieves accurate phase and frequency response. The DSP is tuned to match other systems within the EVENT series, allowing the EVENT-M12A to be easily integrated into a complete DAS Audio EVENT system.
A particularly practical feature is the built-in Wi-Fi connectivity. Firmware updates can be performed directly via a web server app, without requiring a physical connection to a computer. This makes maintenance and future updates simple.
The connections and amplifier module are located at the front of the enclosure. When the EVENT-M12A is used as a floor monitor, cables and connectors remain out of the audience’s direct line of sight. This ensures a clean and professional stage setup.
The enclosure is made of birch plywood and finished with a durable ISO-flex™ coating. Thanks to the integrated pole mount socket in the handle, the EVENT-M12A can also be easily used as a point-source speaker on a stand.
With a weight of only 21 kg, the EVENT-M12A is relatively easy to transport and quick to set up.
The DAS Audio EVENT-M12A is thus a versatile professional monitor that combines compactness with high output, coaxial precision, advanced DSP, and flexible usability. An excellent choice for live bands, DJs, stages, rental companies, and professional events.
