Sound: They have the clearest sound of all speakers I testing including Mackies, JBL and EV. Feature: Gives you option for EQ which is great if you are doing a smaller venue and don't want to drag a sub in. Ease of Use: Very lightweight compared to the older versions making them easy to handle and putting up on poles. You have to read the manual for the different input options, but it was pretty easy. Quality: So far they seems to be very well made. The handles are very sturdy. Value: Expensive for the size, but for the sound they are better than the more expensive competitors like JBL. Manufacturer Support: Haven't used it. The 6 year warranty is something that the other brands doesn't even come close to. The Wow Factor: Because of the size it doesn't intimidate certain venue owners. Overall: The build quality, 6 year warranty, Sound quality above the competitors make this the best option out there for small to medium venues.

Overall: First, I am not a DJ, just a dude with a band. I spent a lot of time looking at reviews for both the EV ELX112P and the K12. The EV was very tempting from a price perspective and the wood enclosure was also something that I liked, but what sold me on the K12 was the construction and panel options. The K12 seemed to not be so susceptible to damage, with more rugged handles, pads to lay down as monitor, mounting options, and the grill seemed to be thicker and stronger than the EV. I am sure the EV is a great sounding speaker, but I like things to last. Also, I was pleasantly surprised when it showed up at my door a day and a half after ordering! I must have gotten lucky, because they said it wouldn’t ship for a few weeks, zZounds must have found one, and the one they did was just 1 state away! As with all my other orders from zZounds, it arrived undamaged.

Sound: I have always used the mackie srm-450... Purchased one k12 speaker to use as a monitor and at small events and I am very pleased with it.. great sound great construction and its not too heavy.... zzounds was also very helpful they priced matched as well as made sure it made it to me on time before my gig.... Feature: has rca input which is great because my rane ttm 56 only has 2 rca and 1 1/4 inch... i was able to hook this to my aux and still run the clubs speakers in the 1/4 inch Ease of Use: great product Quality: good quality... Value: expensive but worth every penny Overall: overall great speaker... a little more expensive then its comp but still worth it

Back to Product Information
Sound: i have 4 QSC K12's and 4 Mackie SRM450v2's. I lined one Mackie v2 with one QSC K12, and from start to finish, Mackie wins. No speaker on the market can possibly compare to the Mackie SRM450v2, none. Plus, QSC's are way overpriced. I bought 2 Mackie SRM450v2's for $1,500. I bought 2 QSC K12's for $1,800. Plain and simple.....NOTHING beats Mackie in clearness, deep bass, loudness, no distortion, and just the best overall speaker. Feature: I think the QSC's are nice, but not as good looking as Mackie's. Ease of Use: Too complex on the on-board sound mixer. Quality: quality is nice, but not as loud as they say it is...or as clear. Value: WAYYYYY TOOOO OVERPRICED!!! GO WITH MACKIE SRM450V2!!!!!!!! Manufacturer Support: its ok The Wow Factor: its look needs improvement Overall: OVERALL....Mackie is better.

Sound: I lined them up side by side with Mackie's SRM450v2. No contest, Mackie wins. At flat mixer settings and at Unity level on the speakers, K12 don't even come close to Makies. The sound is flat and to low. No definition for mids and highs. And for the money I paid, it was a BAD deal. Feature: Simple to connect, but it's not 1000W. 1000W is a lie. It has two 500W amps that are not bridged, so at best you will get 500W. As compare to SRM45v2, the volume was at about the same level, but the quality of the sound made it sound much lower volume (because of the flatness). Ease of Use: Not obvious if both Levels must be turned up t get the full output volume and sound quality Quality: have not had issues, but I only owned it for 1 month Value: OVERPRICED Manufacturer Support: have not used them The Wow Factor: Nope

Sound: Clean, bud does not compair to EVs. Feature: too may features that kill the sound. they tied to pack a mixer into this speaker, but every time you add more controls the sound suffers Ease of Use: easy, but not obvious Quality: no issues Value: Over priced for what it is Manufacturer Support: never used it The Wow Factor: Never again Overall: There is no way this thing is 1000W - It's a LIE. It does ok with a powered instrument plugged in such a keyboard, but forget about plug-in a mc or a guitar without a preamp. There is no way you can do a life show. It gets loud enough in my living room, but there is no way it will be loud enough for an outdoor gig - VERY DISAPOITED in volume level

Sound: Sounds clean, but I agree the 1000W is a lie. I have SRM450's and these speakers are not any louder (SRM450 are only 300W) Feature: I like the low-end switch you get a nice bass Ease of Use: I had to look at the manual to figure our which output to use Quality: No Issues Value: Too expansive for what they are SRM450 are a much better value Manufacturer Support: Sent 3 emails and got no reply for over 12 days now The Wow Factor: If they really were 1000W I would buy again, but these things are not loud enough for a large gig Overall: I just can get over the lie about 1000W power
