A compact powered subwoofer for tight, clean bass.
The Harbinger VARI VS12 12" compact powered subwoofer with DSP is designed to deliver deep, punchy bass that transforms any live sound system. With a built-in Class-D amplifier pushing out 1,000 watts of peak power and a maximum SPL of 130 dB, this subwoofer ensures your low-end cuts through the mix with clarity and authority. Its compact, lightweight design makes it easy to transport, while advanced DSP tools like crossover and time-alignment controls provide precise sound tuning for any venue. Whether you're powering up a small club, a house of worship, or a mobile DJ setup, the VS12 is built to perform.
Powered Subwoofer With DSP for Deep, Clean Bass
The built-in Class-D amplifier delivers consistent, high-efficiency power, keeping your bass tight and distortion-free even at high volumes. The 1,000-watt output offers plenty of headroom, allowing the sub to handle demanding low-frequency content without losing control. Front and rear-mounted limiter LEDs give visual feedback to prevent clipping, helping you maintain clean, undistorted sound during peak performance levels. This ensures your audience feels every thump, kick, and bassline with precision and impact.
Advanced DSP features make the VS12 incredibly versatile and easy to integrate into any sound system. The adjustable crossover lets you tailor the frequency response to match your main speakers, ensuring smooth transitions between the lows and mids. A time-aligning delay control helps resolve phase issues, giving your bass the full, unfiltered presence it deserves. These tools allow you to fine-tune your sound for optimal performance, no matter the room size or configuration.
Connectivity is another strength of the VS12, with dual XLR combo inputs supporting both balanced and unbalanced connections. This flexibility allows the sub to pair seamlessly with a wide range of mixers, speakers, and PA systems. Dual XLR outputs allow for daisy-chaining additional subs or routing signal to your main speakers. The dedicated output level control gives you independent adjustment over the subwoofer volume, so you can balance your low-end without affecting the rest of your mix.
Weighing just 46 pounds and equipped with ergonomic handles, the VS12 is as portable as it is powerful. Its compact enclosure is easy to transport and store, making it a practical choice for gigging musicians, DJs, and sound techs. Despite its lightweight design, the subwoofer's rugged build ensures it can handle the rigors of frequent use. It's an excellent option for those who need pro-level bass without the hassle of a heavy, cumbersome setup.
