Active 12" PA Speaker with Class D Power and DSP Control

The dB Technologies B-Hype 12 is an active two-way loudspeaker for musicians, DJs, and presenters who need a single cabinet that handles vocals, playback, and stage-monitor duties. A 200 W RMS Class D amplifier drives a 12" woofer and 1" neodymium compression driver, producing up to 126 dB SPL from a 13.9 kg cabinet. This speaker is the right choice for mobile users who want plug-and-play setup with mic and line sources, DSP tone shaping, and a pole-mount or wedge-mount form factor in one box.

Asymmetrical Horn and Onboard DSP for Real Rooms

What sets this model apart from generic 12" plastic tops is the asymmetrical horn, with 85° up and 120° down on the horizontal axis and 85° vertical (+25°/-60°). This geometry focuses energy toward the audience while reducing reflections from ceilings and rear walls. Onboard 28/56-bit 48 kHz DSP provides Peak, RMS, and Thermal limiting plus user-selectable presets that flatten response or add a low-end boost for background music.

Amplification, Drivers, and Connectivity

Power, processing, and I/O together determine how loud, how clean, and how flexible a PA speaker is in the field. The cabinet reaches 126 dB SPL from a 13.9 kg enclosure with a custom Class D amplifier, two-way driver complement, and a simple mic/line input stage that accepts a dynamic microphone directly.

• Amplifier: Class D, 200 W RMS / 400 W peak — custom design with passive convection cooling
• LF Driver: 12" woofer with 2" voice coil — reaches 55 Hz (-10 dB) for full-range playback
• HF Driver: 1" neodymium compression driver — crossed over at 2100 Hz (24 dB/octave) for clean vocal handoff
• Input: Balanced XLR/TRS combo (mic/line switchable) with XLR link output for daisy-chaining
• Pole Mount: 36 mm socket; cabinet also tilts at 45° for wedge use on stage

Who Should Choose the B-Hype 12

The dB Technologies B-Hype 12 is the right choice for solo singer-songwriters, mobile DJs, fitness instructors, and small houses of worship running rooms up to about 100 people. Plug a dynamic microphone straight into the mic/line combo input without a separate mixer, while the DSP Boost preset adds warmth for background-music playback between sets. For bands that already own a subwoofer, this model works well as a mid-top box, with the asymmetrical horn keeping vocal detail clear at the back of the room.
