dB Tech ES1203

Dual 12in Woofer - 2,400 Watts - 132dB

$4,149.00

ES1203 is a 3-amped stereo sound system composed by 2 passive wooden tops and one active wooden subwoofer equipped with 2X12” woofers. The sub hosts last-generation Digipro G4® 2400W Peak amp. A powerful DSP (controlled by an intuitive user interface placed on the top of the sub) manages all function of the 5-channel on-board digital mixer as well as the system configuration.

Each top satellite is equipped with 4x4” mid-woofers, whose alignment allows an asymmetrical vertical coverage (thanks to the Logarithmic Curved Column Array technology). The unique design of phase plugs widens the horizontal coverage and guarantees a perfect intelligibility.

Moreover, on board DSP allows users to choose among 3 Configuration Modes (Mono, Stereo or Double Column) and 2 different Steering Modes (Far and Near). This way, the system adapts to all kind of environments and guarantees the best throw pattern.
Top satellites work separately in a stereo configuration(placed on tripods or installed with WB-44 accessory) or connected together in mono configuration. The enclosure of both satellites embeds a metal lock system assuring perfect top to top matching and electrical connection. One of the two satellites receives the signal from the sub and relaunch it to the companion top.

ES1203 features an on board 5-channel mixer: the first channel features a MIC/instrument balanced/unbalanced combo connector with an adjustable anti-feedback filter, impedance compensation and microphone gain with 3 positions (0, +10, + 20dB). The second and third channels are MIC/LINE inputs with balanced/unbalanced combo connector. This allows the system to manage up to 3 mic lines at a time.

The built-in Bluetooth module receives stereo audio from portable devices managing the signal in a separate stereo channel.
The balanced AUX/MIX output serves as a direct link or, alternatively, as an Aux output for a stage monitor or another speaker. When in Double Column Mode, this output acts as a source for another ES1203 system providing Left or Right signal.
The semi-horn loaded subwoofer houses 2x12” woofers, the amp module and the OLED didplay with system controls. The enclosure, sturdy and stylish, is made of plywood coated with a durable scratch-resistant black coat, which makes it truly road-ready. The magnetic dolly DO-ES1203 allows to transport the system quickly and smoothly.
ES1203 is incredibly simple to set up. Users are guided step-by-step to configure the system according to the application thanks to the advanced graphical interface. In facts, the OLED display allows to enter the heart of the system, recall configuration presets, adjust levels, EQ and create a pre/post gain mix for different purposes.

When used in Mono mode (as well as Double Column Mode), the system can be completed with DP-ES1203, a wooden pole which levels out the overall design resulting in an elegant, unobtrusive look which perfectly fits permanent installations.
The ES1203 bundle comes with sub cover, a bag for tops, a telescopic 35mm pole, 2 7m speakon cables and power cable.

If you are looking for a system like the ES 1203 you won't find anything better. I originally was looking at the Turbosound ip3000 or Rcf Evox 12 compared all 3. Db 1203 has more power,more Bass. Better mids. Also KPODJ was very patient with me and treated me very well.

I will recommend to listen to the system first before you buy. <br /> I was under the impression that i had the best sound for portable DJ for small venues. <br /> It turns out that the RCF-J8 sounds a lot better than my speakers. <br /> So all the money i spent is not worth it

Excellent sound quality and power from a small box. Light weight and bags are great. Great that you can point speakers for speeches during wedding events.

KPODJ did great! This was my first purchase from them. I chose the ES 1203 because the speakers can mount on normal speaker stands and because it offers the highest power output in its class. I wouldn't say it sounds as good as it could with the factory default settings, which sound fairly flat (even volume level at all frequencies). But it wasn't difficult to tweak the settings using the internal DSP to get a little more low-end punch. Specifically, it helped to turn the sub volume up a tiny bit (press and hold the selector knob for a few seconds to access the secret menu for sub volume adjustment). I'm still new to this system, but setup time in stereo with stands takes about 4 minutes. 3 minutes if I only set up what came in the box. Strike time is about 3-4 minutes. Definitely get the dolly if you can find one in stock. This is a game changer for anyone sick of lifting 50+ pound speakers over their head.

This system is incredibly loud and crystal clear even at peak volumes. You can throw anything you want at it, it won't break a sweat. Medium-large size weddings, even small school proms, it sounds fantastic right out the box. I purchased the optional DP-ES1203 to make it look even more elegant. If you are on the fence, this is definitely a solid choice that you won't regret. Things I love: -slick look -LOUD and CLEAR -the column rotate for easy quick change of projection, even with the optional DP-ES1203 designer poles -basic EQ and DSP built in -compact sub fits in a small SUV compared with bulky 15" subs -angled OLED screen easy to see without breaking your back -comes with padded transport bags -unique option to use as a single sub - two satellite (the only one on the market to do this) -the top has a standard pole bracket so you can easily put a light fixture on top of the column! Things that are not great: -no control app, you need an external mixer if you want to do live EQ -heavy sub (it has two 2" drivers) -really tall and a bit overwhelming for smaller gigs (the column towers at 8.5 feet!) -getting old and due for a refresh so it's kind of expensive compared with the competition -serious competition coming up with the EV70/EV90 for similar price
