Connect the EX12 to your PC via the IEEE1394 or USB port. Never use both ports together.

Daisy-chaining the PD-6, EX12 and PC

By making "daisy chain" of the PD-6, EX12 and PC as shown below, you can export an audio file on a DVD-RAM disk set to the PD-6 or EX12.

If your PC has more than one IEEE1394 port, you also can connect the PD-6 and EX12 individually to the IEEE1394 ports on the PC.

The cabinet is constructed from high-quality materials that focus on reducing resonance, resulting in a more accurate sound reproduction.

Moreover, the EX12 incorporates cutting-edge technologies, such as a built-in power amplifier that provides efficiency and ample output power for consistent sound delivery. This amplifier is finely tuned to match the characteristics of the speaker drivers, ensuring an optimal performance curve across the frequency range.

The Fostex EX12 also offers versatile connectivity options, including balanced XLR and TRS inputs, making it easy to integrate into various audio setups. The rear panel features controls for adjusting the high-frequency and low-frequency response, allowing users to tailor the sound to their specific acoustic environment.

In summary, the Fostex EX12 is a notable addition to the world of studio monitors.
