Description
ES1203 is a 3-amped stereo sound system composed of 2 passive wooden tops and an active wooden subwoofer equipped with 2×12″ woofers. The sub houses the latest generation Digipro G4® 2400W peak power amplifier. A powerful DSP (controlled by an intuitive user interface on top of the sub) manages all functions of the 5-channel built-in digital mixer and the system configuration.
Each top satellite is equipped with 4×4″ mid-woofers, whose alignment allows for asymmetrical vertical coverage (thanks to Logarithmic Curved Column Array technology). The unique phase plug design increases horizontal coverage and guarantees perfect intelligibility.
Furthermore, the onboard DSP allows users to choose from 3 configuration modes (mono, stereo, or double column) and 2 different steering modes (far and near). This way, the system adapts to all types of environments and guarantees the best throw pattern.
Top satellites work separately in a stereo configuration (placed on tripods or installed with the WB-44 accessory) or connected together in a mono configuration. The housing of both satellites contains a metal locking system that ensures perfect top-to-top alignment and electrical connection. One of the two satellites receives the signal from the sub and relays it to the corresponding top.
The ES1203 features a built-in 5-channel mixer: the first channel features a MIC/instrument balanced/unbalanced combo connector with an adjustable anti-feedback filter, impedance compensation, and 3-position microphone gain (0, +10, +20dB). The second and third channels are MIC/LINE inputs with a balanced/unbalanced combo jack. This allows the system to manage up to 3 microphone lines simultaneously.
The built-in Bluetooth module receives stereo audio from portable devices, managing the signal via a separate stereo channel.
The balanced AUX/MIX output serves as a direct link or as an Aux output for a floor monitor or another speaker. In double column mode, this output acts as a source for another ES1203 system, providing a left or right signal.
The semi-horn loaded subwoofer houses 2×12″ woofers, the amplifier module, and the OLED display with system controls. The sturdy and stylish enclosure is made of plywood covered with a durable scratch-resistant black coating, making it truly road-ready. The DO-ES1203 magnetic dolly allows for quick and smooth transport of the system.
ES1203 is incredibly easy to set up.
Thanks to the advanced graphic interface, users are guided step-by-step to configure the system according to the application. In fact, the OLED display allows access to the heart of the system, recalling configuration presets, adjusting levels and EQ, and creating a pre/post-gain mix for various purposes.
When used in mono mode (as well as double column mode), the system can be complemented with the DP-ES1203, a wooden pole that levels the overall design, resulting in an elegant, discreet look perfect for permanent installations.
The ES1203 bundle comes with a sub cover, a bag for tops, a telescopic 35 mm pole, two 7 m speakon cables, and a power cable.
