Fitted out with all the premium features you need to accurately monitor your drum performance, the Strike Amp 12 boasts 2000 watts of explosive bi-amplified power and super high-performance transducers and a heavy-duty 12-inch low-frequency driver that enhances kickdrum sounds. A high-frequency compression driver combined with the Strike Amp 12’s computer-optimized waveguide precisely captures snare drum and cymbals. Make good use of this amp’s Contour EQ Control to further personalize your sound.
The Strike Amp 12 includes inputs and outputs for almost unlimited hookup potential. An XLR output lets you scale up your monitoring by linking to another Strike Amp 12, or enables you to send your performance to another input device. Two XLR/TRS ¼” combo inputs feature independent volume controls and a clip indicator, preventing you from accidentally overdriving the speaker into distortion.
