Product overview

The XY-122 is a compact, versatile, passive loudspeaker product designed for a wide variety of compact and discreet sound reinforcement applications. It features a high-
power 12 inch (305 mm) neodymium LF drive unit in a reflex enclosure, and a 3 inch (76 mm) diaphragm, 1.4 inch (36 mm) exit neodymium high frequency compression drive 
unit coupled to a 90 ° × 60 ° rotatable waveguide. These components are matched by an internal passive crossover network for unprecedented sonic quality from a completely 
passive enclosure.

Due to its discreet size and appearance, the XY-122 can be used in a wide variety of applications ranging from fills and delays in nightclub use to medium scale front of
house and DJ booth monitoring duty.

No active controller or programmed EQ is required for correct operation. For demanding applications, a 65 Hz, 24 dB/octave high pass filter is recommended to increase drive 
unit headroom. However, this is not essential for normal operation.

 NL4 connectors.
