About the 12L2
The Quad 12L2 is a compact 2-way bookshelf loudspeaker that delivers balanced midrange and treble performance with a ported enclosure design. It features a 170mm cone bass driver blended with a 25mm soft dome tweeter via a 2.2kHz crossover. The speaker is known for its flat frequency response in the midrange and lower treble, making it suitable for a variety of music genres. It performs best in free-field placement rather than against walls or in corners. The 12L2 was manufactured between 2004-2008 and is no longer in production.
