Denon DJ – Axis 12S

 

Denon announced the launch of the new Axis active PA system series at the NAMM 2015 trade show, in response to the demand for compact and versatile sound reinforcement that doesn't resemble unsightly hot air ducts. The series comprises two coaxial speakers, Axis 8 and Axis 12, complemented by the Axis 12S subwoofer. As the name suggests, the high-mid speakers differ in driver size and power handling. Of particular interest is the coaxial design of the mid-bass section, which dramatically reduces the overall height of the speaker. The coaxially arranged 1.75" driver with a 1" exit allows efficient coverage of high frequencies while minimizing phase shifts. The long-excursion mid-bass woofer delivers ample acoustic pressure for various system applications.

 

The Axis 12S subwoofer provides a solid 35 Hz foundation for the aforementioned satellites. The 12-inch driver, powered by a high-quality Class D amplifier, impresses with its efficiency in such a compact form factor. All the speakers mentioned above feature a standard 35 mm pole mount socket for speaker stand mounting.
