12" Active PA Speakers – Refined Sound, Flexible Control
The Power Dynamics PDY212A 12" Active PA Speaker delivers detailed, reliable sound for professionals who require clarity and versatility. With a 700W bi-amplified design, this Active Loudspeaker is built for those who want rich, controlled output, whether that's in a live event, rehearsal space, or at a corporate function. Custom DSP controls and Bluetooth streaming make it accessible, while input options provide adaptability for almost every situation.
Key Features and Benefits
Bi-Amped Clarity & Power
The PDY212A uses a bi-amplification system of Class-D circuitry for lows and Class-AB for highs. This separation means each driver receives dedicated amplification, resulting in clean, undistorted audio even at demanding volume levels. For users, this translates to consistent fidelity across all frequencies, free from muddiness or harsh spikes.
Intuitive DSP with Display
Equipped with a digital sound processor and straightforward screen interface, adjustments are simple and precise. Fine-tune EQ, volume, or crossover on the fly, ideal when the acoustic environment changes or if you swap audio sources. Compared to basic manual controls, this setup saves valuable time and reduces guesswork.
Integrated Bluetooth Streaming
This feature lets users link smartphones, tablets, or laptops for wireless music playback. Events become more flexible with this cable-free approach, removing clutter and allowing quick source changes. It's particularly useful for users who need audio from various mobile devices.
Flexible I/O for Pro Setups
A combi input takes both XLR and 6.3mm jack, with switchable line or mic level, meaning you can connect a mixer, microphone, or other equipment as your setup demands. No need for adaptors or re-cabling mid-show; switching is immediate, which is a real asset during live performance changes.
Built to Last and Travel-Ready
The coated plywood shell isn’t only about good looks. This material choice absorbs knocks and dings, making it suited for regular transport and setup/teardown routines. The built-in 35mm pole socket and fly points provide mounting freedom - on stage, on a stand, or even rigged for larger productions.
Applications
This Active PA Speaker is designed for anyone who needs adaptability with consistent quality. It's ideal for event organisers managing conferences or weddings, as clear speech and music reproduction are guaranteed. Live bands and DJs will appreciate the fast, accessible controls and rugged enclosure, streamlining setup during tight turnarounds. It’s also well-suited to schools, places of worship, and rental companies where flexible input and output, plus hassle-free operation, are crucial. The unit shines in both mobile and installed setups, offering plug-and-play readiness for small to mid-sized venues.
Summary
The PDY212A is an all-in-one Active Loudspeaker with a focus on reliability, flexibility, and sound detail. The 700W bi-amp system delivers clear results at any volume. Digital processing ensures real-time tuning capability, while both wired and Bluetooth connectivity make it suitable for today’s varied requirements. Its professional plywood build, multiple mounting options, and user-focused design set it apart for users who value function and acoustic precision in their Active Speakers setup.
