The high-power SW12 is acoustically compatible with the larger SW18 and SW28 subwoofers on the system amplifiers. Which means that their phase and frequency responses are virtually identical. Electrically the SW12 is ready for the cardioid operation mode.
A total of four Speakon sockets - two on the back and another two on the front - allow a front/rear system cabling without custom-wired reversible cables. Rubber feet for horizontal and upright operation, numerous sockets for the MT10 and MT12 in horizontal and upright operation plus an M20 threaded flange make the SW12 a genuine all-rounder.
