The PVX™12 is a two-way sound reinforcement system based on a heavy-duty 12" woofer and a RX™14 titanium diaphragm dynamic compression driver mounted on a 100 by 50 degree coverage Quadratic Throat Waveguide™. It’s sleek modern appearance coupled with excellent performance offer an outstanding package.
The lightweight yet rugged injection-molded plastic enclosure with molded-in stand mount cup facilitates portable use for live music or PA sound. The trapezoidal cabinet has three handles for ease of portability, and an extra 45-degree angled section on the right side to allow use as a floor monitor. Five sets of flying/ mounting points, two on the top, two on the bottom, and one on the side, with a total of 16 cabinet inserts, provide for the ultimate in installation flexibility. A black powder coated perforated steel grille provides driver protection and a professional appearance.
The heavy-duty 12" woofer has a 2 3/8" voice coil diameter, and a 50 oz. magnet for 200 watts continuous worth of chest-pounding bass. The RX 14 compression driver tweeter is coupled to a Quadratic Throat constant directivity waveguide, covered under US patent #6,059,069 with smooth, even response, low distortion and good high frequency dispersion. This horn has an asymmetrical vertical polar response, aiming the main energy lobe down 10°, so it is aimed at the audience, instead of over their heads. This helps reduce ceiling reflections for greater clarity and gain before feedback.
The PVX 12 speaker system is rated at 400W program power handling, and the full crossover network includes high voltage film capacitors, high current inductors, and high frequency driver protection for clear punchy sound, and excellent long-term reliability. A 4-pin twist-lock connector and a ¼" phone jack input make hook-up a breeze.
The cabinet of the PVX 12 speaker system has multiple mounting fly points, providing outstanding versatility in permanent install use. A pair of M10 inserts is molded-in on the top, and a pair on the bottom, and a set of four M8 inserts is available on the top, on the bottom, and on the right side in the handle recess. This is a total of 16 mounting inserts in all. Most of these inserts have substantial retaining hardware on the inside of the plastic cabinet, so that the insert would have to pull out an entire chunk of the cabinet to come free, providing a more reliable and safe mode of mounting the cabinet.
