DAS Audio EVENT-M12A: Ultra-Compact Coaxial Powered Monitor for Accurate Stage Sound
Built for demanding stage and production environments, the DAS Audio EVENT-M12A is a self-powered two-way coaxial monitor engineered for coherent, controlled coverage and high output from a compact footprint. Its coaxial architecture pairs a 12” LF driver (3” voice coil) with a HF compression driver (2.5” voice coil) on a common acoustic axis for symmetrical dispersion and consistent tonal response across the listening area.
Powerful Output with DSP + FIR Processing
With Class-D amplification delivering 1000 W continuous / 2000 W peak, the EVENT-M12A reaches up to 136 dB maximum SPL (132 dB maximum linear SPL) for confident monitoring on loud stages. A 24-bit DSP platform with FIR filtering supports flat, phase-coherent performance and system consistency across compatible EVENT setups. Integrated Wi-Fi connectivity enables firmware updates via a web-server app to keep performance current over time.
Controlled Coverage for Monitoring or Point-Source Use
A numerically optimized horn provides 50° horizontal x 70° vertical coverage, helping reduce spill while maintaining clarity and intelligibility. The response extends down to 60 Hz (–10 dB), delivering solid low-end for vocals, instruments, and playback without relying on excessive EQ.
Road-Ready Build + Practical Stage Layout
The enclosure is constructed from birch plywood for rigidity and durability, and includes a discreet, stage-friendly layout with the amplifier module and connectors positioned on the front of the cabinet for easy access while staying visually hidden from the audience. A pole-mount socket integrated near the handle supports quick deployment as a compact point-source loudspeaker when needed
