ESD 12

The ESD12 is a high quality 2-way, passive full range loudspeaker that provides unmatched clarity and definition in a simple elegant package. The ESD12 utilizes a 12″ Trans Coil woofer and the same 3″ NVPD large format compression driver found in our flagship VHD products, which has one of the lowest distortion ratings on the planet.Combined with our unique delay line technology the ESD12 delivers a beautifully balanced, phase coherent and accurate compact, 2-way passive solution that is adaptable to a wide range of applications.
