Samson Auro X12D - 12" Active Loudspeaker with DSP and 2-Channel Mixing (1000W Peak)

Samson Auro X12D - 12" Active Loudspeaker with DSP and 2-Channel Mixing (1000W Peak)

The Samson Auro X12D is a 2-way powered PA loudspeaker that combines power, control and portability for mobile sound installations and live performances. Its bi-amplified Class D architecture delivers 400W continuous LF and 100W continuous HF ( 1000W peak ) through a 12" extended-range woofer and 1.34" titanium compression driver . It incorporates DSP RAMP ( Reactive Alignment / Maximum Protection ) that aligns the response and thermally and electrically protects the system, maintaining clarity even at high levels.

The rear panel features a 2-channel mixer with two XLR/1/4" combo inputs ( Channel 1 switchable Mic/Line ), independent volumes , a Master control with peak indicator , a 3-position Contour EQ ( Normal/Deep/Boost ), and HPF with Flat/80/120 Hz . An XLR Link output allows speaker cabinets to be chained together. The polypropylene enclosure with integral wire grille , dual handles , and 35mm jack facilitates tripod use; it can also be floor-mounted as a monitor with two wedge angles .

Main features

• Power and amplification: Bi-amplified Class D; LF 400 W continuous / HF 100 W continuous ( 1000 W peak ).

• Construction and assembly: polypropylene enclosure, metal grille , two handles , 35 mm socket and floor use as a monitor with two angles .
• Fixed installation: compatible with MB D412 wall mount (optional accessory).

Product benefits

• Powerful and controlled sound: bi-amplification and proprietary DSP to preserve definition in voices and instruments.
• Quick setup: Combo inputs, Mic/Line switch, EQ and HPF reduce live setup time.
• True versatility: Works as a main PA on a tripod or as a stage monitor in two wedge angles.
• Designed for the road: durable housing, steel grille, and ergonomic handles for continuous transport.

Use cases

• Events and DJs in bars and venues that require punch with bass control via HPF and Deep/Boost presets.
• Presentations and education by connecting a microphone and music source directly to the speaker.
• Sound reinforcement in bands as a portable PA or monitor in compact stages.

Frequently Asked Questions

• Can I link another box? Yes, via the XLR Link output .
• Can it be used as a floor monitor? Yes, its geometry allows for two wedge angles to adapt the coverage to the musician.
• What does the HPF do? It filters bass at 80 or 120 Hz to optimize clarity or integrate subwoofers; Flat deactivates the filter.
