Key Features and Benefits
Efficient Class D Amplification
At the heart sits a 1000W Class D amplifier supported by a SMPS power supply with PFC factor correction. This configuration ensures smooth, consistent output even when AC mains conditions are less than optimal. System reliability is enhanced by onboard DSP monitoring, protecting both the speaker and your investment from signal or thermal damage.
64-bit DSP with User-Friendly Interface
Adjust settings through a clear 3.5-inch TFT touchscreen, offering a logical GUI that puts criticalparameters at your fingertips. Cardioid presets and input/output monitoring options help adapt your PA subwoofer setup to the venue, while multiple system presets simplify integration.
Specially Tuned Band-Pass Cabinet
The enclosure, crafted from multilayer birch ply and protected by a Polyurea resin finish, holds a newly engineered 12-inch driver and 3-inch voice coil. Expect extended response all the way down to 38Hz, satisfying even the most demanding low-end needs. The enclosure also features strong feet and stackable surfaces for flexible rigs, all in a compact design.
Top Hat Pole Fitting
Placing your S-series top speaker directly above the sub is simple. This ensures proper phase alignment and consistent audio delivery throughout your system, reducing set-up hassles while optimising performance.
Rugged and Practical
Each component is designed for daily use on tour or in permanent installs. Ergonomic handles, optional gradient speaker grilles, and recessed stacking surfaces make transport and configuration straightforward.
Applications
The Amate S12W slots neatly into many professional settings. Live sound engineers touring medium venues will appreciate its compact size and muscular output, simplifying logistics without compromising on coverage. Installers working on bars, clubs, or multi-purpose halls will value the sub's adjustability, durable build, and integration options.
DJs aiming for clear, thumping bass in busy environments can count on quick setup and rock-solid protection. Wherever clarity and well-controlled sub-bass are priorities, this active subwoofer delivers.
Summary
Combining a high-output 12-inch driver and 1000W Class D amplification with 64-bit DSP control, the Amate S12W is engineered for consistent, deep low-frequency support.
