MonopriceStage Right Series, 12-Inch Powered Speaker, 1200W, SRD212, Class D Amp, DSP, Bluetooth Streaming

I got these SRD-212's on discount while Monoprice was running their 25% off sale. Today I was booked up and had a most of my speakers out so had to use these in a big School gym with about 200 people in it. They sound great and are way louder than their price would have you believe. I used them with a JBL sub, which rounds out the sound nicely.I highly recommend these! My only concern is their longevity at this point I'll update if I have any issues! If you were thinking of buying these, they are a deal and look/sound great. Get them.UPDATE: Ive been using this pair of speakers for over 6 months now, mostly for karaoke at bars, and a few other small events. The still sound good and are working great. If these can handle getting beat up by some karaoke singers, they should be just fine 😉

Product it s excellent value, functioned s well is plenty loud and versatile. Sound quality is good, but is not up to the standard of discerning people. I would have given give stars of sound quality was better.

The media could not be loaded. I used these speakers a few times already and am impressed so far. They sound great and have pretty good bass response. My main reason for buying them was for the SD card/USB playback. This is great for wedding ceremonies and/or cocktail hour as you don't necessarily need an external playback device. The construction is solid. And best of all, it costs 1/6 of the price, $850 less than a QSC K12. You do the math!

The media could not be loaded. Bought this to upgrade my DJ setup and I’m really surprised for the price the speaker has good bass and gets really loud, the Bluetooth is really good and easy to use haven’t ran into any connections issues. When it comes to Durability the speaker is built really well and is meant to last a long time, In the portability section the speaker is portable to take out for parties and events, the speaker weighs 30 pounds which is not bad for a 12 inch Pa speaker. Overall the performance on this speaker is amazing for the price I highly recommend it.EDIT: May-16-24I Bought a second speaker well worth the money both of the speakers together sound amazing

The media could not be loaded. My first use at a gig, was at an HR conference over 150 people or more the sound was good, they were very loud, to be complete you need to add a subwoofer with them, that if you providing sound for a big venue like I have. Now I need to try the subwoofer” Monoprice stage right - let’s work something.

I got the Stage Right SRD212 on Amazon at a price below the Monoprice site's retail for a low quantity purchase, so that's a plus already. I was very curious if this speaker was any good at this price point, lower than about any other in this category, with these amount of advanced features. It looks good and just read above to see the features. When I got it, I gave it a good ~12 hour burn-in at low volume before putting it to use at a live show. I used the BlueTooth feature connected to my phone with a a lot of tunes on the playlist. I deliberately paused a song for at least 45 minutes to see if the BlueTooth signal would be dropped by the speaker and was glad that it remained ready to go after all that paused time. For comparison, another 12 inch Bluetooth capable speaker (Harbinger V2312) I have required me to turn it off and on agin to reestablish my phone's connection after a long pause. Maybe I got a lemon? That speaker costs at least $100-200 more than the SRD212. So that's another plus to me for the Stage Right speaker. I walked around the house with the phone seeing how far away I could get without Bluetooth dropouts and it was about the standard distance. On the gig I used it as a monitor as the mains had to be placed on the front of the stage and I'd have had a hard time hearing myself there without monitors. I didn't need to turn them up much, maybe to the 9 o'clock position and it was fine for my use on that occasion. There's only 2 inputs and if you use Bluetooth, Channel A controls it and that's the same channel with the RCA option or a combo input, so take your pick. Leaving you with one more combo 1/4" XLR input with Mic or Line in option button. There's some DSP speaker tuning available.I think the general sound quality itself may be a little harsh compared to a higher priced speaker like a JBL, EV or QSC but of course there's going to be some major trade-off when paying only a fraction of the price.As to the value and quality ratings I'm just posting average for those until I can know better. I will try to push them harder next time with a band, get more opinions from them, and that should give me a more informed updated evaluation.Edit Update 2-15-24One of my main PA speakers (different brand) decided to not power up at all. I had a SRD212 with me to use as a monitor, so I used it to replace the other FOH speaker. Bottom line, it worked out really well for me. The job din't requirer high volume. The bluetooth on this SRD212 had a strong signal and could get quite a bit louder on that BT channel then the other speaker it replaced. I got value out of this brand so I decided to get another to have a pair. It seems they work well enough for a really budget priced speaker.

Is it as good as my RCF speakers? No. But it’s 1/10th the price. Is it as good as my head rush frfr speaker? No but it’s 1/2 the price. It’s close to that one though. For the price it’s awesome. Good as a stage monitor. Would t use it as a front of house speaker unless the venue is real small. Use it mostly for corporate board room business meetings. Small parties. And the occasional stage monitor. Or in home practice. For that, it’s really good.

I own an entertainment company, and I have bought everything from Harbinger to Alto, and these things are loud on both music AND microphone!! Buying 4 more immediately.
