Overview
The B&C 12MH888-8 is a high-performance 12-inch midbass driver designed for professional audio applications requiring high output and low distortion. It features a robust 3-inch aluminum voice coil wound on a glass fiber former, which enables it to handle 350 watts of continuous pink noise power and up to 700 watts of continuous program power. With a sensitivity of 100 dB, this driver is highly efficient, making it suitable for demanding live sound reinforcement and high-impact monitoring systems.
Constructed with a ferrite magnet and an aluminum demodulating ring, the 12MH888-8 minimizes distortion and ensures a clear, accurate midrange response across its 55 Hz to 5000 Hz frequency range. Its durable build includes a treated paper cone and an accordion-style surround, providing reliability in various environments. Whether used in multi-way PA systems or as a powerful midbass component, this driver delivers the punch and clarity expected from B&C's professional lineup.
