( BBA6105 )

Active Speakers Designed for Flexibility and Performance

The Amate S12 is a two-way, full-range active speaker that’s custom-built for powered PA speaker duties in diverse settings, from live events to theatre installations. Marrying a responsive 12" neodymium woofer with a precision compression horn, this model blends solid build quality with advanced control for clear, balanced sound at any volume.

Key Features and Benefits

Controlled Power

This model’s bi-amplified setup couples 800 watts for the low end with 200 watts pushing the highs, all managed by a highly efficient Class D amplification system. The switch-mode power supply plus PFC correction maintains optimal operation, even on unreliable mains connections.

Flexible Sonic Shaping

The onboard 64-bit DSP and 3.5" colour touchscreen provide instant access to a suite of presets, custom EQ tweaks, crossover points, and FIR phase filters. Whether you’re fine-tuning the response for a packed hall or a low-key rehearsal, the system allows complete control over your sound profile.

Installation Adaptability

Multiple mounting points, including M8 rigging and 35mm pole compatibility, make it easy to use in flown clusters, on speaker stands, or laid flat as a monitor wedge. Its asymmetric trapezoidal enclosure projects sound where it’s needed, reducing unwanted reflections.

Reliable Operation

Thermal and voltage limiters act as built-in protection, ensuring the system stays operational during heavy-use situations or less-than-ideal power environments.

Smart Monitoring

Advanced input and output monitoring, along with Adaptive Loudness Compensation, keeps performance consistent at any volume, helping every note cut through, even at lower levels.

Applications

The Amate S12 fits right into the toolkit of sound technicians, musicians, and AV installers who need reliable active speakers across different venues. For live music, it works front-of-house or as a stage monitor, handling vocals and backline with ease. Churches and auditoriums benefit from clear speech projection and musical energy, even with challenging acoustics. Thanks to adjustable delay alignment and comprehensive DSP, permanent installations are straightforward, no more guesswork balancing settings for multi-speaker arrays or tricky stage layouts.

Rental houses find this model ideal when clients have varying demands, as it quickly adapts through touchscreen presets. Even in tough mains power situations, outdoor events or older venues, the speaker’s power supply keeps the system steady and dependable.

Summary

Built with tough birch plywood and finished in durable Polyurea, the Amate S12 is engineered to last. Its powerful neodymium drivers, efficient amplification, and in-depth DSP control make it a go-to solution for pros who value clarity, versatility, and reliability in powered PA speakers. The comprehensive monitoring and EQ tools, paired with its user-friendly touchscreen, ensure the S12 adapts fluidly to the demands of any event or installation.
