You will have to buy an amplifier to power the 12M speaker. The "Monitor" output jack on the Escort 6000 is only a line-level signal, not able to produce sound from an unpowered speaker. Use a guitar cable to connect between that output jack and a power amp input. Then plug your speaker into the speaker output jack on the rear of the amp. I have a couple of old "Monitor 260H" 130-watt amps with built-in 9-band equalizers. They work great for speakers the size of the 12M.
