About dB Technologies B-HYPE 12

Be immersed in the powerful and high-quality sound of the B-HYPE 12 2-Way Active Speaker. Engineered for professional sonic performance, this speaker is designed to deliver accurate sound reproduction with aggressive sound pressure levels, reaching up to 126 dB for the 12" cabinet.

This versatile active speaker is equipped with a 12" woofer and a 1" neodymium compression driver, ensuring a robust bass response and clear, crisp highs. The unique dispersion pattern is asymmetrical on the vertical axis and diversified on the horizontal axis, providing a narrower, more efficient sound coverage and superior performance in reverberant environments.

The combo input with source type selection allows for easy use with a dynamic microphone or standard line input. Enhance lower and upper frequencies with the handy DSP preset function. A balanced link output allows for easy audio connection to a second loudspeaker.

Despite its powerful performance, the B-HYPE 12 is surprisingly lightweight at just 30.64 lbs. The sleek, contemporary full grille design enhances portability with three handles for easy transportation.
