the box PA 12 ECO MKII 5-stars Reviews

Great Box for guitar amp sims

Bought this box to be used with a real amp or with amp sims and a power amp. Why? Just to be able to simulate a wide range of guitar cabs. Used with a Mesa/Boogie MarkIII and an amp sim on the effects loop. You could add just an impulse response, add effects or run a full amp sim there. This setup is a lot more versatile than using a real guitar cab. The frequency response is rather flat, just a bit recessed Mids.

Great Speaker

Sounds great.Crisp sound and lightweight

Magic.

I have these a few years now. First got them to stack on my previous 12 inchers to make up 4 ohms speaker load at bigger venues (higher decibels), to completely use my power amps capability, 500 Watts per side, the 4 speakers took a pretty hard beating all afternoon and evening with vocals, harmonica and a complete keyboard with bass pedals. Friends in the audience were happy with the sound from 25/30 meters away. I expected to have some "blown" drivers, but these little guys, shared the load with my old 12 inchers, took the punches and fully survived.

Amaized and pleased, I have used them many times since for some larger gigs.

"budget speakers", but very capable.

Good robust sound

No compliant about the sound and general performance. Been serviceable since purchase and used many, many times.

The only issue encountered was the plastic sockets for the stands broke on both speakers, but it was possible to repair them

Value for money.

Great speakers, with very good specs and range. Classic design, easy to handle and install on tripods for instance. Very good product for the money and they sound very well.

Affordable and quality stuff

Very affordable speaker, with quality sound. Recommend for small gigs, reharseal rooms, acoustic live shows!

I have been using a pair of these with Behringer PA, taking in 4 voice microphones, 1 acoustic guitar, 1 miced instrument, all sounds coming with nice detail, no distortion at all. N

Good solid lightweight speakers

Good value for money and has worked well in smaller venues with no real problems to report.

Excellent for the price.

Very good for monitoring

I bought a pair of these speakers for monitoring.

They are very lightweight and can be transported easily. The frequency range is very good and they sound lound and clear.

They are not made for big stages or to be carried all day because they don't have any corner protectors. And don't be fooled by the 560W peak, it just means that it can handle 560W without get any damage, but it's not about volume.

Great frequency response

I bought two of these 12 inch PA speakers for an old powered 0.75kW rig, and I agree with all the other reviewers, these are great little speakers :-)

The bass frequencies are clear and not "muddy", while the high frequencies are not "piercing", overall a very pleasing frequency response. In fact I was happy to discover that my 750W PA wasn't strong enough to cause these 8 Ohm speakers to distort.

Of course it's unrealistic to expect chest thumping bass from these 12 inch speakers ... and that's perfectly ok, at this price and specification they're not designed to do that. However with proper EQ you can push them a little more ... otherwise consider the 15 inch speakers plus sub-woofer instead.

They handle very well, with large handles making them simple to carry, and they are surprisingly light. As others have said, I do worry about the material on the corners tearing. I recommend you attach metal corner protectors if they're going to be bump'ed and banged between gigs.

I did get an opportunity to use them at a venue which featured a venue with a very high ceiling - the ultimate speaker test ... and it passed without issue, nice sound dispersion.

For small-medium sized gigs these 12 inch speakers are great value for money.

The box PA 12 ECO MKII

Really good small P.A. speakers.

I use these in a studio practice room and for their size the quality is amazing, I drive them with The t.mix PM800 and they really do what i need them to.

They have also been used for live gigs andf small disco's and handle those really well too.

Great value.

Review on the box PA 12 Eco mkII

this PA box works really well with its t.mix pm800.

We used it for both indoor and outdoor live sessions, Dj sets and speeches

Decent Passive Speaker

I've been running this with 200W power amplifier (2x100W channels) and it manages well.

Sounds decent, but with less low end than I'd want.

Great thing is that it is lightweight, and is smaller than you might think from the pictures.

Great value for money.

Nothing else to say. At this price the box is unbeatable.

Wonderful Speakers.

I use these for an acoustic duo band and home use, really nice looking and really really light, the handles are a bit awkward but otherwise these are amazing for the money. Recommended.

Very nice

Great, very light and good output with clean sound, bass response is good too.

They speak for themselves

What can I say. The woofers Woof and the tweeters tweet. Great speakers, giving a nice crystal clear sound. Solid as a rock with handles to carry and look fab when they stand in front of you as you blast out your tunes! Rock on Mr T.

Rugged and reliable

I've used my PA12's for years now with no problems whatsoever. They're light, they sound good, and they're rugged, what more could you ask for? Just a note: take care of the carpet finish. After three years it starts to get holes and tears in it. It may be a good idea to buy some hard corners and maybe even hard edging to make them last.
