The Riot-12P delivers professional-grade live sound for bands, DJs, and venues that need reliable PA performance without breaking the budget. This passive 2-way speaker cabinet handles 400 watts RMS and peaks at 800 watts, making it suitable for mid-sized venues and outdoor events.

The 12-inch woofer features a robust 50 oz magnet and 2.5-inch voice coil that produces solid low-end response, while the 1.35-inch titanium compression driver with wide dispersion horn ensures vocals and highs cut through the mix. At 93dB sensitivity, this speaker delivers efficient output that works well with most power amplifiers.

The crossover frequency sits at 2.5 kHz with THD under 0.05%, providing clean separation between drivers. Maximum SPL reaches 121dB, giving you headroom for dynamic performances. The 8-ohm impedance makes it compatible with standard PA amplifiers, and the frequency response spans 50Hz to 20kHz for full-range coverage.

Use the Riot-12P as main PA speakers for venues up to 200 people, or as floor monitors for larger stages. The angled cabinet design works equally well for both applications. Churches, bands, mobile DJs, and small venues will find this speaker handles everything from acoustic sets to rock performances.

Speakon input and output connectors ensure secure connections and allow daisy-chaining multiple cabinets. The ABS molded construction with textured coating stands up to regular transport, while the pole mount socket provides flexible positioning options.

Seismic Audio backs the Riot-12P with a one-year warranty and ships directly from our facility for fast delivery to your venue or studio.

Frequently Asked Questions

What size venue can the Riot-12P handle?

The Riot-12P works well for venues up to 200 people when used as main PA speakers. For larger crowds, pair multiple cabinets or add a subwoofer for extended low-end coverage. The 121dB maximum SPL provides enough headroom for most live music and DJ applications in clubs, churches, and outdoor events.

What cables do I need to connect the Riot-12P?

You'll need Speakon-to-Speakon speaker cables to connect from your power amplifier to the Riot-12P. The dual Speakon connectors allow you to daisy-chain multiple speakers from a single amplifier output. Standard 1/4-inch speaker cables won't work with this cabinet.

Can I use the Riot-12P as a floor monitor?

Yes, the angled cabinet design makes the Riot-12P ideal for floor monitor use. The wide dispersion horn provides even coverage across the stage, while the sturdy construction handles the rigors of stage placement. Many bands use these speakers as both mains and monitors in their PA system.

Do I need a subwoofer with the Riot-12P?

The Riot-12P's frequency response extends down to 50Hz, providing solid bass for most musical styles. However, electronic music, hip-hop, or applications requiring deep sub-bass will benefit from adding a dedicated subwoofer. The Speakon outputs make it easy to integrate with powered subwoofers.

What power amplifier should I use with the Riot-12P?

Match the Riot-12P with a power amplifier that delivers 400-600 watts RMS at 8 ohms. This provides clean power without risking driver damage from underpowered amplifiers being pushed into clipping. Popular choices include QSC, Crown, and Seismic Audio's own power amplifier series.
