LD Systems ICOA® PRO 12 A – Professional 12-inch Active Coaxial PA Speaker
Compact size, professional power
The LD Systems ICOA® PRO 12 A is a professional active 12-inch coaxial PA speaker for users seeking a combination of power, detail, flexibility, and compact size.
With a 12-inch woofer, 3-inch voice coil, 3-inch titanium HF driver, 1000 W RMS power, and maximum 133 dB SPL, the ICOA PRO 12 A is designed for serious professional applications.
The speaker can be used as a full-range PA, satellite speaker, floor monitor, or fixed installation. Thanks to the rotatable horn, the speaker can be used both horizontally and vertically.
12-inch coaxial system
The heart of the ICOA PRO 12 A is the coaxial Common Motor Design.
The speaker features:
- 12-inch woofer
- 3-inch voice coil
- 3-inch titanium HF driver
- Coaxial construction
- 800 Hz crossover
Because the high driver and woofer operate from the same acoustic point, a very coherent and natural sound reproduction is achieved.
This is particularly interesting for vocals, speech, and live music.
1000 W RMS and 2000 W peak
The ICOA PRO 12 A features a powerful Class-D amplifier.
1000 W RMS
2000 W peak
The official maximum SPL is 133 dB peak with pink noise.
This gives the PRO 12 A sufficient headroom for professional PA applications.
Excellent for vocals and speech
A 12-inch speaker is a great middle ground between compact size and powerful low-end reproduction.
The ICOA PRO 12 A is therefore particularly suitable for:
- Live bands
- Singers
- Presentations
- DJs
- Corporate events
- Theater
- Hospitality
- Rental
The coaxial construction helps to reproduce the midrange naturally and clearly.
SysCore® DSP
LD Systems has equipped the ICOA PRO 12 A with SysCore DSP.
This digital processing utilizes FIR and IIR filters and advanced limiting.
The DSP provides:
- Crossover
- EQ
- FIR filtering
- IIR filtering
- Limiting
- Delay
- System optimization
This ensures the speaker remains controlled and clear even under high loads.
4-band parametric EQ
For users who want precise manual tuning, the ICOA PRO 12 A features a 4-band parametric EQ.
This allows you to adjust the speaker to:
- The room
- Speaker positioning
- The audience
- Microphones used
- Music style
For professional users, this offers much more control than simple tone adjustments.
ICOA PRO App
A major advantage of the PRO series is the free ICOA PRO app.
Settings can be adjusted wirelessly via smartphone or tablet.
This is particularly useful when speakers are on stands or in hard-to-reach locations.
It allows you to easily make changes during soundcheck without having to walk to the back of the speaker every time.
Bluetooth 5.1 and TWS
The ICOA PRO 12 A features Bluetooth 5.1.
It also supports True Wireless Stereo (TWS).
With two ICOA PRO 12 A speakers, you can create a wireless stereo setup for streaming.
This makes the speaker extra versatile for:
- Presentations
- Rehearsals
- Background music
- Small events
- Mobile productions
Horizontal and vertical
The horn of the ICOA PRO 12 A is rotatable.
This allows the speaker to be used both:
vertically
and:
horizontally.
The dispersion is:
90° × 50°
The 35 mm pole mount also offers 0° and 5° tilt.
Also as a floor monitor
The ICOA PRO 12 A is not just an FOH speaker.
Thanks to the special monitor angle of 50°, it can also be used as a floor monitor.
This makes one speaker suitable for multiple functions:
FOH + monitor + full-range + installation.
Full-range without subwoofer
The ICOA PRO 12 A features a bass-reflex construction with flow-optimized ports.
LD Systems specifies a frequency range of:
50 Hz – 20 kHz (-10 dB)
This allows the PRO 12 A to be used excellently as a full-range speaker.
For smaller parties and presentations, a subwoofer can therefore be omitted.
However, if you want truly deep bass and maximum impact?
Then combine it with an ICOA PRO SUB 21 A.
ICOA PRO 12 A + SUB 21 A
A professional configuration could, for example, consist of:
2 × ICOA PRO 12 A
2 × ICOA PRO SUB 21 A
This gives you a powerful combination of compact tops and massive low-end capacity.
The PRO 12 A handles the mids and highs, while the 21-inch subwoofers take care of the deep lows.
According to LD Systems, the ICOA PRO series was specifically developed for DJs, live bands, rental companies, clubs, and permanent installations.
ICOA PRO 12 A for bands
For live bands, the 12-inch version is a great choice when looking for a powerful yet manageable top.
The speaker is excellent for:
- Vocals
- Guitar
- Keys
- Kick drum
- Bass guitar
- Samples
For larger bands, simply add subwoofers.
ICOA PRO 12 A for DJs
For mobile DJs, the 12-inch version offers an interesting combination of size and output.
Two PRO 12 As can be used independently as a full-range PA.
For larger parties, add one or more subwoofers.
2 × PRO 12 A + 2 × PRO SUB 21 A
is then a very powerful professional configuration.
Events and installation
The PRO 12 A is also attractive for professional events and fixed installations.
The speaker features:
- 6 × M10 rigging points
- EasyMount® compatibility
- 35 mm pole mount
- 4 handles
This allows it to be positioned or mounted in various ways.
Robust housing
LD Systems has equipped the ICOA PRO 12 A with a sturdy ABS housing with integrated steel construction.
The front also features a shock-resistant protective grille.
With a weight of 23.1 kg, the speaker remains reasonably manageable for a professional 12-inch PA speaker.
