Wharfedale Pro WLA-12MX Description

The Wharfedale Pro WLA-12MX is designed for demanding monitoring applications where clarity, output, and reliability are critical. Its 12-inch LF driver with a 3-inch voice coil works alongside a newly developed 3-inch Neo HF compression driver to deliver detailed mids, clear highs, and consistent stage monitoring performance.

Constructed from durable 15 mm birch plywood, the enclosure is built to handle the rigours of touring and frequent setup. The black Tough-Tone finish and black steel grille provide additional protection while maintaining a professional appearance for live productions and installations.

The WLA-12MX offers flexible deployment options for monitor, side-fill, or front-of-house applications. Its rotatable square waveguide supports both horizontal and vertical orientation, while four 4-pole speaker connectors positioned on the top, side, and rear simplify cable routing in different stage layouts. A built-in 35 mm pole socket further expands placement options.
