Description
By combining super clean power, advanced active processing and the highest quality speaker and cabinet components, the Live Series provides studio quality sound for any kind of live sound reinforcement application. The L1212 trapezoidal enclosures are configured as “front of house” loudspeakers. The L1212 is a 2-way, active speaker system utilizing super heavy-duty, custom designed, 12-inch low frequency drivers and a 1.75-inch titanium diaphragm high frequency driver on a 1” throat, wide dispersion horn.
The L1212 features a massive 400 watts of power for the dual Low Frequency drivers, plus 100 watts for the High Frequency compression driver. All of the LIVE series amplifiers feature a built-in active crossover and multi-band dynamics processing. In addition, the models have a two band EQ and controls for the extension output selection.
The Live Series goes beyond concert-quality to studio-quality thanks to Samson’s exclusive Optimax processing. Optimax processing uses sophisticated circuitry to compress and limit output at ideal levels. This allows the Live Series to provide huge volume levels without sacrificing low end. The trapezoidal shape of the speaker cabinet offers more than just superior acoustics, not only is it a front-firing PA speaker, the Live Series are also designed to operate as wedge-style monitors. With the Live Series, setup and break down is quick and easy thanks to the internal amplification.
By using clean power and over designed components, the Live Series offers crystal-clear audio and an ultra-wide sound field. The top end is clear, sweet and articulate. The low-end is enormous, and at the same time, it’s tight and controlled. As fixed sound reinforcement or as a durable, great-sounding road PA, the Live Series active monitor is ideal for sound professionals and performers looking for serious power and studio monitor sound quality from a PA speaker system.
Samson's new Live! Active PA enclosures bring the highest quality design and components to small and medium loudspeaker systems. High power-handling speaker components, advanced amplifier design, separate speaker processing for both highs and lows and EQ sections designed specifically for the speakers mean that every loudspeaker has impressive performance and durability. And any Live! PA enclosure is perfect for portable live music and house of worship applications, as well as theatre and club installation. All-plywood construction also means great looks as well as great sound.
The Live! 1212 delivers 400 watts to the custom designed, heavy-duty low frequency drivers, which feature oversize motors and large voice coils. An additional 100 watts is delivered to the high frequency compression driver, providing a remarkably articulate frequency response. For seamless operation we also used our own exclusive Optimax circuitry to divide audio into two separate bands and apply an independent compressor/limiter to each. As a result, you get maximum volume level without distortion or clipping. With versatility and reliability guiding the design for this loudspeaker, the Live! 1212 is a great choice for a high performance PA enclosure.
