This Podium 12 inch kicks butt..

I was talking to Randle at OnlyFactory Direct..and he told me the new series
.03 and 04 models are improved over the 02 series..


The 802's still amaze me and all the people that hear them can not believe the sound...

I have used the 1503's too and they are Super powerful, with great bass..sub woofer type bass...


So..when I read about the newly released PP1204ca...I had to order one....
and will order another for stereo, now that I have heard it...

It has 3 channels with 1/4 and XLR inputs on two channels and a pair of RCA and a XLR on channel 3..


It also has a cool MP3 player on board..reads from USB or SD ports...
The MP3 player has all the controls too, including selectable EQ...

The MP3 player is intergrated and does not need to use a channel...
So beside the 3 channels the 4th is the MP3 player..

It also has a 1/4 and XLR line out too..

A master volume and both a treble and bass controls are present..


The power is 400 watt continuous and 800 watt peak...This thing is loud...
and the bass response will shame nearly all current 15 inch units...

The top handle flips up and has wheels too and the conventional side handle is there too..

A removable power cord is used..

I wanted this unit to use as my stage monitor..for my keys and vocals..it will easily do any size venue...

We use the NX series Yorkvilles (great power speakers)..but I can see a replacement in the near future...
maybe the 1503's..as of right now ..The 1204's out do the Yorkvilles.
.the 12 inch Yorkvilles only go down to 60..the Podiums go down to 25.

I am not going by the numbers 60/25..but the bass response burys the Yorkvilles...

We need the sub woofer with the Yorkvilles..but not with Podiums...

The 1503's on stage were unbelievable..and I can't wait to open up the 1204 on stage..

Podium has another winner...

Another strong point with the 1204..A/AB power amp..considered to be the most powerful type....

Onlt Factory Direct ..gives you a free 4 gig thumb drive with every 1204...and a $259...delivered price....
Forget Mackie, JBL..etc..
