High fidelity meets high output — PRV Audio ALTO Series Woofers. Audio experts and professional musicians know that tone can make or break a performance, in the studio or on the stage. That’s why PRV Audio’s Alto Series woofers were carefully crafted and voiced to create a natural, smooth sound while remaining dynamic.
With improved excursion and higher power handling over PRV’s popular 12W750A, the 12W800A Alto series 12″ professional 8 ohm woofer offers improved output capability and more low frequency impact.

- Nominal Impedance: 8 Ohm
- 800 Watts Program RMS power makes high acoustic output
- 60 to 5,500 Hz frequency response makes this midbass/woofer suitable for two or three-way designs
- Capable of extreme output levels with 97 dB sensitivity
- High 5.72 mm Xmax allows excellent displacement for high impact bass capability

Its robust design ensures durability and reliability, making it suitable for demanding environments. Additionally, the 12W800A offers excellent thermal management and low distortion, ensuring dynamic midbass reponse with clear and accurate sound reproduction across various applications.
Featuring a multi-roll surround, large raised spider, and 2.50″ light-weight voice coil, the 12W800A is capable of high output while keeping distortion under control.

How to Install them:
This midbass speaker will need 800 Watts RMS per speaker with recommended HPF using PRV Digital Signal Processor DSP
- 115 Hz at 12 dB per octave filter Crossover / BT12
- 105 Hz at 18 dB per octave filter Crossover / BT18
4 Speakers – 1x QS3000 at 2 Ohm, 4 speakers in parallel
8 Speakers – 1x QS7000 at 1 Ohm, 8 speakers in parallel
If you have compression drivers on your system the recommended LPF is 2,000 Hz at 18 dB per octave filter Crossover / BT18 but you may set it lower to blend in better depending on the other components in your system, or you may not use a LPF at low power to take advantage of its high frequency response
