B&C Speakers - 12NW76 16 Ohm Push Buttons

The B&C Speakers 12NW76 in 16 Ohm Push Buttons version is a powerful, lightweight 12" loudspeaker designed for professional systems. Its neodymium magnet structure keeps the weight down while guaranteeing high, stable magnetic flux, ideal for two-way speakers or compact stage monitors.

This model has a rated power of 500 W, with a programme capacity of 1000 W. Coupled with a sensitivity of 98dB, this configuration allows high SPL levels to be achieved without strain. This is a strong point for those working on powerful diffusion systems, while seeking to limit the overall weight of the subwoofers.

The 76mm copper voice coil is mounted on a fibreglass support, a tried and tested combination that ensures both responsiveness and thermal resistance. The aluminium bowl contributes to the rigidity of the whole, while ensuring good heat dissipation. Another appreciated detail is the presence of an aluminium demodulation ring, designed to effectively reduce harmonic distortion.

Acoustically, the bandwidth extends from 40 Hz to 2000 Hz. This broad spectrum allows smooth integration with a compression driver in two-way systems, while guaranteeing a solid bass and low-midrange. Combined with a load volume of around 50 litres tuned to around 60 Hz, this driver delivers a firm, clean and precise bass, with no dragging effects.

Whether you're designing a versatile front speaker, a muscular monitor or an optimised portable system, the 12-NW76 16 Ohm from B&C Speakers ticks all the essential boxes: efficiency, lightness, power handling and reliability. A loudspeaker designed to last, whether for fixed installation or mobile use.
