Vonyx VSA12BT - 12" 800W Bi-Amplified Active Speaker with Bluetooth and MP3
The Vonyx VSA12BT is an all-in-one professional audio solution designed to deliver power, clarity, and versatility in any setting. This 12-inch active speaker stands out for its bi-amplified architecture, a superior technical feature that sets it apart from conventional active speakers. With two dedicated amplifiers (one for the bass woofer and one for the tweeter), the system manages frequencies much more efficiently, achieving crisp sound with powerful bass and crystal-clear highs, even at high volumes.
Designed for portability and durability, the VSA12BT is built into a high-impact ABS housing. This design not only protects the internal components during transport but is also lightweight enough to be handled by a single person. Its rear panel is a complete multimedia control center: it integrates a mixer with inputs for microphones, instruments (such as guitars), and line sources, as well as an advanced digital player. Whether you need to play background music via Bluetooth from your smartphone, connect a USB drive with your playlists, or amplify a live band, this unit adapts to all your needs without requiring any additional external hardware.
Main features
The Vonyx VSA12BT isn't just raw power; it's engineering applied to live sound. Its features are designed to make life easier for the user:
-
Bi-Amplified Technology: Two independent Class AB amplifiers separately power the woofer and compression driver, eliminating crossover distortion and improving acoustic definition.
-
Bluetooth Wireless Connectivity: Pair any mobile device (tablet, phone or laptop) in seconds to stream audio without wires.
-
Integrated Multimedia Player: USB port for flash memory with MP3 decoding and a bright LCD screen that displays track information (ID3 Tag).
-
3-Channel Mixer: Dedicated inputs with independent volume controls for microphone (XLR/Jack), line (RCA/XLR) and instruments.
-
5-Band Equalizer: Allows precise adjustment of the frequency response to adapt the sound to the acoustics of the room.
-
Smart Cabinet Design: Its angled shape allows it to be laid flat on the floor for use as a stage monitor (wedge), and it has a 35mm socket for tripod mounting.
Product benefits
Choosing the VSA12BT offers immediate advantages for both fixed installations and mobile events. Its greatest benefit lies in its operational autonomy : with amplification, mixing, and playback all in one unit, it drastically reduces setup time and the amount of cabling required. The inclusion of a remote control adds convenience, allowing you to control media playback without being right next to the speaker. Furthermore, its robust construction ensures a long lifespan even under the intensive use typical of touring, while its ability to function as a floor monitor makes it a doubly useful investment for musicians.
Use cases
The versatility of the Vonyx VSA12BT makes it ideal for a wide variety of applications:
-
Mobile DJs and Discos: Perfect for private parties and medium-sized events thanks to its 800W power and easy transport.
-
Musicians and Bands: Excellent as a main PA system in bars or as a reference monitor on large stages.
-
Presentations and Conferences: The direct microphone input and voice clarity make it ideal for speakers in schools or companies.
-
Gyms and Dance Classes: Bluetooth connection allows instructors to control the music from their mobile phone while moving around the room.
Frequently Asked Questions
Do I need an external amplifier to use this speaker?
No, the VSA12BT is an active speaker, meaning it already has the amplifiers built into the casing. You just need to plug it into a power outlet and connect your audio source.
Can I connect a guitar directly?
