Powerful Performance with Advanced DSP

Delivering an impressive 1200W of peak power from a highly efficient Class-D amplifier, the OPERA 12 ensures massive output with pristine audio fidelity. The integrated 56-bit DSP features advanced Linear Phase FIR filters, providing a remarkably coherent and natural sound that stands out in any mix.

Unique Asymmetrical Horn Coverage

The OPERA 12 features a unique asymmetrical horn design that provides optimized high-frequency coverage. This intelligent design ensures wide horizontal dispersion for broad audience reach, while the tighter vertical pattern minimizes unwanted reflections from ceilings and floors, resulting in superior clarity.

Versatile Connectivity & Mounting

Equipped for any scenario, the OPERA 12 offers versatile connectivity with two independent combo inputs for microphones, instruments, or line-level sources. Its multi-functional housing allows for pole-mounting, use as a 45° stage monitor, or suspension via integrated M10 rigging points, making it a true workhorse for performers and installers.
