Axiom ED120A vs FBT Mitus 112A

Short answer: the ED120A, mainly for its deeper measured bass extension and networked control. These rank #14 and #15 out of 37 12-inch powered PA speakers, priced at $1790 and $1500, a $290 difference.

Both measure almost identically well, so the real gap is in bass reach and connectivity. The ED120A posts a 4.94 ideal-subwoofer preference score from high-quality vendor data with 60Hz bass extension, while the Mitus 112A posts a near-identical 4.95 score from medium-quality data but with measured extension only to about 79Hz despite a much deeper manufacturer response claim. That extension gap means the Mitus needs a subwoofer sooner for full-range music.

The ED120A adds CORE DSP and PRONET networked control; the Mitus keeps things simpler. The ED120A’s asymmetric rotatable horn and PRONET remote control over EtherCON/CANBUS add real installation flexibility, though its 60°-to-100° asymmetric pattern needs more deliberate aiming than a conventional symmetric horn, and its 132dB claimed peak is competitive rather than class-leading. The Mitus 112A instead relies on a B&C neodymium woofer, a rotatable 80° x 50° horn and a plywood cabinet, with controls limited to 8 EQ presets and a high-pass filter rather than app-based mixing or remote DSP.

What the ED120A adds:

• PRONET remote control over EtherCON/CANBUS for networked system management.
• CORE DSP processing, more sophisticated than the Mitus’s fixed EQ presets.
• Deeper measured bass extension, 60Hz versus the Mitus’s 79Hz.

What the Mitus 112A adds:

• A plywood cabinet (15mm Baltic birch) versus the ED120A’s phenolic birch plywood, similar in material but FBT’s own construction.
• A higher claimed peak SPL, 133dB versus 132dB.

Buy the ED120A for the deeper measured bass and networked PRONET control, if Axiom’s smaller dealer network isn’t a concern.

Buy the Mitus 112A if you want FBT’s more traditional preset-based control and don’t need networked DSP.

Axiom ED120A: $1,790.00 eBay

Pros: High-quality vendor Spinorama data gives it a 4.94 ideal-subwoofer preference score and 52Hz bass extension, a solid tonal showing for a professional cabinet. CORE DSP, PRONET remote control and an asymmetric rotatable horn add useful installation flexibility.

Cons: The 132dB claimed peak is competitive rather than class-leading, and the asymmetric 60°-to-100° pattern needs more deliberate aiming than a conventional symmetric horn. Availability and service coverage are less broad than the mainstream QSC, JBL, Yamaha and RCF choices.

FBT Mitus 112A: $1,500.00 eBay

Pros: The medium-quality vendor data produces a 4.95 ideal-subwoofer preference score. A B&C neodymium woofer, rotatable 80° x 50° horn, plywood cabinet and 133dB claimed peak output form a capable professional package.

Cons: Measured bass extension is about 79Hz despite the much deeper manufacturer response claim, so a subwoofer is advisable for full-range music. Controls are limited to presets and filters rather than the app-based mixing and remote DSP found on newer competitors.
