EAW Unveils Compact and Powerful SM12 Stage Monitor

Eastern Acoustic Works (EAW^®) introduces its latest innovation, the SM12 Stage Monitor. Inspired by the renowned Microwedge acoustic design, SM12 is the latest addition to EAW’s catalog of stage monitors and sets a new standard for performance, flexibility and ease-of-use in stage monitoring.

SM12 is a 2-way passive loudspeaker that can be used as a stage monitor or fill speaker. A concentric driver attached to a CSA wave guide provides even coverage throughout the 90- x 60-degree pattern. A large ground coupled port extends low frequency response down to 60Hz from the 12-inch woofer mounted in the low-profile wooden enclosure. When utilizing the available mounting pattern, SM12 can be used on a flat surface with two cabinet orientations or mounted on a third-party pole. An integrated kickstand offers additional positioning options when used as a stage or floor monitor.

“Stage space is at a premium and artists have high expectations,” says TJ Smith, president, Eastern Acoustic Works (EAW). “SM12’s compact and rugged form factor provides exceptional output and coverage over a large area from a small space using a single amplifier channel. It’s designed to be deployed in multiple orientations and wiring configurations, making it a flexible addition to your inventory.”
