Product Description

Designed to produce the key elements of power, portability and exceptional sound, the Samson Auro D12 2-Way Passive Loudpeaker is a compact enclosure that combines superior components and meticulous engineering. Compact yet resilient, this loudspeaker offers 400 watts of RMS power handling and clear, full-range audio. Ideal for installation purposes, gigging musicians and general live sound reinforcement applications, the Samson Auro D12 provides a versatile speaker solution that integrates easily into a PA setup.

The Samson Auro D12 features a conveniently lightweight design, producing big sound thanks to its 12-inch extended low frequency drivers and accompanying 1.34-inch compression driver. Immersive, articulate bass and sweet, lucid highs create well-balanced and expressive audio suitable for any situation where pro-quality sound is a must.

Parallel Speakon(R) and 1/4-inch connectors provide the Samson Auro D12 with additional versatility, as well as total ease of use. The loudspeaker also features a 1 3/8-inch pole mount receptacle and dual-angle floor monitor positioning options for flexible setup. This choice of monitor angles makes the Samson Auro D12 ideal for both near-field and far-field applications.

For additional convenience, the Samson Auro D12 provides two oversized ergonomic carry handles that make transport a breeze while the solid polypropylene construction ensures roadworthy durability. Bridging the gap between portable and fixed installation applications, the Samson Auro D12 is perfect for sound professionals and performers seeking serious power handling and true sonic purity.

Reinforcement Has Arrived

The Samson Auro D12 was designed to provide clear, full-range live sound reinforcement in a variety of applications. Whether you're a karaoke diva, singer/songwriter, DJ, or full band gigging in a medium-sized performance space, the Samson Auro D12 guarantees you an immensely powerful, sonically pure and highly mobile sound. In addition, the speaker enclosure's floor monitor positioning angles lends the Samson Auro D12 perfectly to near-field and far-field monitoring applications.

Professional Speakers

Take command of the boardroom podium with the Samson Auro D12. When integrated into a PA system, the speaker provides the perfect solution for a business professional leading any sort of presentation. No matter the application (presentations, company meetings, corporate events, etc.), the unit will allow you to convey your ideas to your audience clearly.

Ensemble Education

In addition to all students, teachers and professors utilizing the Samson Auro D12 in some of the same circumstances as business professionals (presentations, audio playback), the system possesses some functions unique to music education. The unit is ideal for directing large instrumental ensembles. The Samson Auro D12 will help conductors keep even their percussionists on task. Soloists and small ensembles can practice along with recorded accompaniment broadcast over a Samson Auro D12-based PA system. Also, the pro-quality sound produced by the Samson Auro D12 makes the analysis and appreciation of recorded music far more interactive and educational.

Auro Makes The Party

Beyond producing impeccable sound reinforcement, the Samson Auro D12's elements of portability make it ideal for countless recreational uses. For a traveling instructor, Auro D12 is perfect for leading large exercise/yoga classes in fitness clubs. Outdoor functions pose no problem whatsoever for Auro D12. Block parties, sporting events, and general announcement applications now have a more practical, and still extremely portable, alternative to the megaphone. Auro D12 is also sure to excite the tailgating crowd, now able to demonstrate their team spirit at a level never before possible, or simply provide musical entertainment for a classic tailgate party.

So, get passive aggressive with Auro D12.

1. We offer the most flexible payment plans in the biz

zZounds offers a number of different installment payment plans that make it affordable and convenient for you to get the gear you really want today, without racking up risky credit card debt.

Other stores offer house credit cards that require you to fill out an application and pass a credit check--and, if you qualify, leave you vulnerable to exorbitant interest charges once the initial promotional period ends. zZounds payment plans are easy to get and simple to use; plus we'll never charge you interest!

To submit a request for a lower price, click "Seen it for less?" on any product page. We answer most lowest price requests within two hours. For extra peace of mind, you also have 30 days after your purchase to find a lower price; if you do, we'll refund the difference.

5. Our customer service is consistently rated the best

zZounds customer service is consistently rated at or near the top on every major comparison shopping website--probably because we only hire experienced musicians with outstanding customer service skills to work in our call center, and they don't work on commission. To us, this is our most meaningful measure of success. zZounds has served over a million customers since 1996, and they're the only critics whose reviews really matter to us.
