Clarion DTX1200S 12-Channel 1360W Amplifier with 12-Channel DSP

The Clarion DTX1200S is the pinnacle of Clarion's DSP amplifier range, combining 12-channel digital signal processing with hybrid Class A/B and Class D amplification to deliver 1360W maximum power across twelve independently controllable channels. Engineered for high-end custom installations requiring both sonic refinement and substantial output, this unit serves as the complete foundation for complex active systems including tri-amped front stages, dedicated center channels, rear fill, and powerful subwoofer arrays. The hybrid amplifier architecture uses Class A/B topology for channels 1-8 (70W peak each) to maintain sonic purity in midrange and high frequencies, while channels 9-12 leverage efficient Class D amplification delivering 200W peak each—specifically designed to drive subwoofers or high-demand midbass drivers. With 12 high-level inputs, 2 RCA inputs, plus optical and coaxial digital connectivity, the DTX1200S integrates seamlessly with any source. The 24 total outputs (12 RCA + 12 high-level) and comprehensive DSP featuring 31-band parametric EQ per channel, selectable crossover topologies, and 20,000ms time alignment provide the precision control demanded by competition-level installations and discerning audiophiles.
