Wharfedale 12″ 350w RMS Powered Speaker

The new PSX112 (12”, 350w Continuous) active plastic loudspeaker is a powerful and high quality PA solution for any sound project constrained by budget. 
 
Constructed of durable polypropylene and using a full-face steel front grille, PSX112 is a robust and versatile tool – ideal for DJ’s, musicians and installations.
 
Custom Wharfedale Pro drivers have been used.  Both PSX models use a class-leading 1.75” HF compression driver to ensure clear and accurate high frequency performance.  Meanwhile the large 2.0” voice coils used in the LF drivers give efficient power handling, even at extreme volumes.
 
PSX112 is bi-amplified using Class D for the LF and a newly designed Class AB amplifier for the HF. This combination gives a great power to price ratio.
 
Simple operation is the key though.  With +/-12dB treble and bass controls and straightforward connectivity, even the most inexperienced user can achieve great sound.
 
PSX112 – delivering huge “power to the people”.

ssssssh – Silent operation

The two amplifiers inside the PSX112 are extremely efficient.
 
So efficient that they can use convection cooling. This means that there are no fans!
 
Fans inside loudspeakers add to operational noise, weight, price and can lead to reliability issues. PSX112 has no fan!
