Wharfedale Pro Tourus Ax12 Bluetooth

The Tourus Series: Wharfedale Pro Versatility in a "Tour" Format

The Wharfedale Tourus AX12 fits within Wharfedale Pro's professional approach: an active speaker designed to chain performances with stable, coherent sound reproduction and sufficient power for effective sound reinforcement. In the range, the 12-inch format represents a particularly sought-after balance: more body and projection than a compact model, while remaining easier to handle and install than a 15-inch version. The result: a versatile speaker, relevant both in mobile setups and regular sound reinforcement.

A 12-Inch Active Speaker Designed for DJs, Musicians, and Service Providers

The Tourus AX12 targets DJs, bands, hosts, associations, and event professionals seeking a simple, quick-to-set-up solution capable of maintaining a high sound level without losing clarity. It performs well as a front-of-house speaker on small to medium stages, as reinforcement for events (speeches, background music, parties), or in fixed installations such as bars, multipurpose rooms, or rehearsal spaces.

Thanks to its controlled directivity (90 x 60) and a maximum SPL of 128 dB, it helps maintain clear and projected sound, even in reverberant environments. Its format remains compact enough to be handled solo, while offering a solid low-end foundation to work without a subwoofer in certain configurations.

Modern Connectivity and Audio Performance for Reliable Sound Reinforcement

Hybrid Amplification: Efficiency in the Bass, Fineness in the Treble

The amplification design combines a Class D section dedicated to low frequencies and a Class AB section for high frequencies. The goal is clear: achieve energetic bass with good efficiency while preserving more nuanced reproduction in the upper spectrum. The crossover frequency is specified at 2.6 kHz, and the 96 dB sensitivity contributes to a sense of quick response, useful for vocals, synths, guitars, and percussion.

Versatile Inputs + USB and Bluetooth, from DJ Sets to Speeches

To adapt to real-world scenarios, the Tourus AX12 offers XLR, 6.35mm Jack, and RCA inputs, allowing connection of a DJ mixer, controller, microphone via external system, or consumer source. The presence of an XLR output facilitates linking to a second speaker or system extension.

For "quick" playback, USB and Bluetooth provide immediate convenience for playlists, musical ambiance, or background sound without wiring. Bluetooth also enables stereo pairing between two speakers, handy for creating a left/right pair controlled from a single source (smartphone, tablet, or computer) when the setup needs to be fast and lightweight.
