The Sceptre's panoramic soundstage, fine detail, and stunning dynamics will astonish you. This exceptional performance is the result of an advanced coaxial design that works integrally with a 32-bit processor running Fulcrum Acoustic's TQ Temporal Equalization Technology.\u003ch3\u003eThe Royal Sceptre\u003c\/h3\u003eThe sceptre is the age-old symbol of royal authority. The Sceptre S6 studio monitor provides sound quality and control worthy of the highest levels of aristocracy -\u003cbr\u003e- but they're priced for the bourgeois project-studio owner.The system is biamplified: Each transducer is powered by a 90W RMS, Class D power amp with an internal heat sink. Each Sceptre has its own internal power supply with IEC connector and a power switch with on\/off LED. To this package of custom transducers, powerful DSP running custom software, and first-rate power amplification, add a rich set of acoustic adjustments and full speaker protection, and you have an affordable close-field monitoring standard for project studios and commercial facilities.\u003ch3\u003eCoaxial Done Right with TQ\u003c\/h3\u003eEach Sceptre monitor contains a DSP chip that enables the use of Fulcrum Acoustic's TQ algorithms. The processor is used to manage horn reflection, linear time and amplitude anomalies correction, performance contouring, and dynamic and excursion limiting. The result is coaxial speakers that perform far better than all but the most expensive studio monitors.No driver is perfect, nor can a driver be made perfect with hardware alone; there are always compromises in physical systems. To overcome these driver compromises, many speaker manufacturers apply DSP in the form of a combination of multiband EQs but the processing is more or less an afterthought -\u003cbr\u003e- it's not accounted for in the design of the transducer. This sorta works -\u003cbr\u003e- more or less. A few high-end loudspeaker companies have developed sophisticated solutions with active DSP that is co-designed with the speaker, but these are expensive solutions. So instead of taking the crude, old-skool approach, PreSonus partnered with Fulcrum Acoustic and licensed its high-end TQ Temporal Equalization, which, up until now, could only be found in very high-end speaker systems.\u003ch3\u003eYou Wield the Sceptre\u003c\/h3\u003eIn addition to making possible the Sceptre's coaxial design, the monitor's onboard DSP provides user-adjustable contour features for optimizing the monitors for your mixing space. This enables full integration into any studio environment. A four-position Acoustic Space switch controls a second-order shelving filter centered at 100 Hz, with four attenuation settings (no attenuation, -1.5 dB, -3 dB, and -6 dB) so that you can account for the boundary bass boost that occurs when the monitor is placed near a wall or corner. If you don't want to roll off those lows, set it to 0 dB.You also can adjust the Sceptre's overall sound and response using its performance controls. A sensitivity control that ranges from +4 dBu to -10 dBV helps you match the Sceptres to your mixer's outputs. The High-Frequency Driver Adjust switch adjusts the tweeter's overall level to linear (0 dB), +1 dB, -1.5 dB, or -4 dB. This lets you control the balance between the tweeter's output and that of the mid\/low driver. The High Pass switch rolls off the low frequencies below the specified frequency (60, 80, or 100 Hz) at a slope of -24 dB\/octave. This control is important if you are using a subwoofer in conjunction with the Sceptre S6 monitor; in that case, set it to the same frequency as the crossover to the subwoofer. If you're not using a subwoofer, you simply set the control to Flat.\u003ch3\u003eFeatures:\u003c\/h3\u003e- CoActual technology combines DSP time-correction and point-source design for symmetrical soundstage and micro-definition imaging\u003cbr\u003e- Unique coaxial transducer integrates 6.5-inch midrange driver and 1-inch (25 mm), horn-loaded HF transducer with Coaxial Speaker Coherence Alignment\u003cbr\u003e- Powerful DSP provides critical Temporal Equalization with multiple FIR filters\u003cbr\u003e- Acoustic-tuning controls: HF Driver Adjust (0 dB, +1 dB, -1.5 dB, -4 dB), Acoustic Space settings (0 dB, -1.5 dB, -3 dB, -6 dB), High-pass filter (Off, 60 Hz, 80 Hz, and 100 Hz, -24 dB\/octave slope), Sensitivity (+4 dBu to -10 dBV)\u003cbr\u003e- 180W RMS, Class D biamplification with internal heat sink\u003cbr\u003e- RF shielding, current-output limiting, and over-temperature protection\u003cbr\u003e- Balanced XLR and 1\/4-inch TRS line-level inputs with A-taper level control\u003cbr\u003e- Amplifier 'soft start' feature eliminates popping on power-up\u003cbr\u003e- 102 dB maximum continuous SPL\u003cbr\u003e- Internal power supply with IEC connector\u003cbr\u003e- Power switch with on\/off LED","brand":"PreSonus","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":7068869591105,"sku":"PRS S6","price":349.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0006\/2550\/8417\/products\/twmnbyhdrmsugetrmow0.jpg?v=1579116472"},{"product_id":"yam-hs5","title":"Yamaha HS5 Active Studio Monitor, Black","description":"The Yamaha HS5 is a 2-way bass-reflex bi-amplified near field studio monitor with 5\" cone woofer and 1\" dome tweeter. Yamaha HS Series cabinets are designed to eliminate unwanted resonance and increase the accuracy of sound reproduction to their extreme limit. Drawing from Yamaha's over 100 years of piano design experience, HS Series engineers also employed a traditional three-way mitered-joint technique to dramatically improve durability and eliminate unwanted resonance.When choosing reference monitors for mixing and music production, accuracy is the prime consideration. Speakers that sound \"good\" on first impression may not necessarily be accurate. What you really need is an honest reference for your mix, rather than monitors that have been tweaked or colored to deceptively sound impressive.The HS series reference monitors have been created by Yamaha's studio monitor engineering team to deliver exceptionally flat, accurate response that you can trust. Unlike \"monitor\" speakers with exaggerated bass and treble that make a good first impression but can't be relied on for accuracy, the HS series were designed to be true studio reference monitors in the tradition of the legendary Yamaha NS10M.Whether you're mixing for stereo or 5.1 surround, mixes that sound good on Yamaha HS series reference monitors will translate accurately to the widest possible range of reproduction systems ... which is engineer-speak that simply means they'll sound good on anything. And that is the ultimate goal of any reference monitor. We should also mention that the HS-series monitors not only sound great, they look great, too.\u003ch3\u003eHigh-performance Speakers and Mounting System\u003c\/h3\u003eThe elegant white-cone speakers used in the HS-series monitors deliver superlative audio performance that is further enhanced by a carefully engineered mounting system. A system of screws and a specially designed mounting ring eliminates spurious vibration and resonance, allowing the speaker to deliver its full sonic potential. Another feature that boosts woofer performance is a magnet selected to produce accurate, solid low-end response. The tweeter frames employ an advanced smooth-contour design that minimizes losses so that high-frequency details come through with remarkable accuracy. The extra thickness of the tweeter frame also minimizes resonance that can interfere with high-end clarity. The overall result is extraordinarily smooth, accurate response throughout the audio spectrum.\u003ch3\u003eThe Benefits of Built-in Power and Bi-amplification\u003c\/h3\u003ePowered, bi-amplified monitor speakers simply make the most electrical and sonic sense, and that's why they have become the first choice of sound professionals the world over for near\u003cbr\u003e- and mid-field monitoring applications. In addition to the obvious advantage that you don't need separate power amplifiers, the fact that power and speakers are integrated in one unit means that the amplifiers can be perfectly matched to the characteristics of the speaker units used so you get consistently superior performance with any source in just about any listening environment. Bi-amplification means that separate power amplifiers are used to drive the low-mid and high-frequency speaker units, and this eliminates interaction between the units as well as the response and phase anomalies introduced by passive crossover networks. Both speaker units can function at optimum performance levels for correspondingly high overall sonic quality.\u003ch3\u003eLarge Magnets in an Advanced Magnetic Circuit Design\u003c\/h3\u003eOne feature of the HS-series monitors that you'll hear but are not likely to see is the extra large magnets. In combination with an advanced magnetic circuit design these magnets provide a powerful, uniform, tightly controlled flux field that results in exceptionally smooth response and dynamic capability over a wider frequency range.\u003ch3\u003ePortable, Versatile Monitoring for Your Audio Workstation\u003c\/h3\u003eAll you really need for top-class stereo production capability is a good audio workstation and a pair of HS-series monitors. A system like this is not only portable and extremely easy to set up anywhere you need it, it can deliver outstanding monitoring performance that will let you get your mixes just right. The response-control features of these monitors let you tweak them for the best response no matter where you set them up.\u003ch3\u003eSerious Surround Production\u003c\/h3\u003eAlthough stereo is still the most common format for basic music listening, 5.1 surround has become the audio format of choice for today's advanced visual media, and is beginning to be recognized as a superior vehicle for pure musical enjoyment as well. But to properly mix and produce surround sound you need a good 5.1 monitoring system. The HS-series speakers and subwoofer are the perfect choice if you want competitive surround-monitoring performance without having to spend big-studio megabucks to get it. Combine five HS50M or HS80M powered near-field reference monitors with one or more HS10W subwoofers, and you're ready to produce and deliver state-of-the-art surround sound.\u003ch3\u003eOptimum Response In Any Room\u003c\/h3\u003eSpeaker response can vary greatly depending on the size, shape, and surface acoustics of the room in which they're used, as well as how they're placed within that environment. The HS50M and HS80M give you extra room-matching and speaker placement versatility with ROOM CONTROL, MID EQ, and HIGH TRIM response control switches that are specifically designed to compensate for common acoustic deficiencies and monitoring needs. The ROOM CONTROL switch, for example, can be used to compensate for the unnatural low-end exaggeration that usually occurs when speakers are placed close to walls or in corners. The MID EQ switch gives you subtle midrange boost and cut options in addition to flat response, while the HIGH TRIM switch offer the same type of response-tailoring capability for the high frequencies.\u003ch3\u003eFeatures:\u003c\/h3\u003e- 2-way bass-reflex bi-amplified near field studio monitor with 5\" cone woofer and 1\" dome tweeter\u003cbr\u003e- 54Hz \u003cbr\u003e- 30kHz frequency response\u003cbr\u003e- 45W LF plus 25W HF bi-amp system for high-performance 70W power amplification\u003cbr\u003e- ROOM CONTROL and HIGH TRIM response controls\u003cbr\u003e- XLR and TRS phone jack inputs accept balanced or unbalanced signals","brand":"Yamaha","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":7069347184705,"sku":"YAM HS5","price":199.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0006\/2550\/8417\/products\/01.Yamaha_HS5_Active_Studio_Monitor_Black.jpg?v=1580650236"},{"product_id":"yam-hs5w","title":"Yamaha HS5 Active Studio Monitor, White","description":"The Yamaha HS5 is a 2-way bass-reflex bi-amplified near field studio monitor with 5\" cone woofer and 1\" dome tweeter.

Unlike \"monitor\" speakers with exaggerated bass and treble that make a good first impression but can't be relied on for accuracy, the HS series were designed to be true studio reference monitors in the tradition of the legendary Yamaha NS10M.Whether you're mixing for stereo or 5.1 surround, mixes that sound good on Yamaha HS series reference monitors will translate accurately to the widest possible range of reproduction systems ... which is engineer-speak that simply means they'll sound good on anything. And that is the ultimate goal of any reference monitor. We should also mention that the HS-series monitors not only sound great, they look great, too.\u003ch3\u003eHigh-performance Speakers and Mounting System\u003c\/h3\u003eThe elegant white-cone speakers used in the HS-series monitors deliver superlative audio performance that is further enhanced by a carefully engineered mounting system. A system of screws and a specially designed mounting ring eliminates spurious vibration and resonance, allowing the speaker to deliver its full sonic potential. Another feature that boosts woofer performance is a magnet selected to produce accurate, solid low-end response. The tweeter frames employ an advanced smooth-contour design that minimizes losses so that high-frequency details come through with remarkable accuracy. The extra thickness of the tweeter frame also minimizes resonance that can interfere with high-end clarity. The overall result is extraordinarily smooth, accurate response throughout the audio spectrum.\u003ch3\u003eThe Benefits of Built-in Power and Bi-amplification\u003c\/h3\u003ePowered, bi-amplified monitor speakers simply make the most electrical and sonic sense, and that's why they have become the first choice of sound professionals the world over for near\u003cbr\u003e- and mid-field monitoring applications. In addition to the obvious advantage that you don't need separate power amplifiers, the fact that power and speakers are integrated in one unit means that the amplifiers can be perfectly matched to the characteristics of the speaker units used so you get consistently superior performance with any source in just about any listening environment. Bi-amplification means that separate power amplifiers are used to drive the low-mid and high-frequency speaker units, and this eliminates interaction between the units as well as the response and phase anomalies introduced by passive crossover networks. Both speaker units can function at optimum performance levels for correspondingly high overall sonic quality.\u003ch3\u003eLarge Magnets in an Advanced Magnetic Circuit Design\u003c\/h3\u003eOne feature of the HS-series monitors that you'll hear but are not likely to see is the extra large magnets. In combination with an advanced magnetic circuit design these magnets provide a powerful, uniform, tightly controlled flux field that results in exceptionally smooth response and dynamic capability over a wider frequency range.\u003ch3\u003ePortable, Versatile Monitoring for Your Audio Workstation\u003c\/h3\u003eAll you really need for top-class stereo production capability is a good audio workstation and a pair of HS-series monitors. A system like this is not only portable and extremely easy to set up anywhere you need it, it can deliver outstanding monitoring performance that will let you get your mixes just right. The response-control features of these monitors let you tweak them for the best response no matter where you set them up.\u003ch3\u003eSerious Surround Production\u003c\/h3\u003eAlthough stereo is still the most common format for basic music listening, 5.1 surround has become the audio format of choice for today's advanced visual media, and is beginning to be recognized as a superior vehicle for pure musical enjoyment as well. But to properly mix and produce surround sound you need a good 5.1 monitoring system. The HS-series speakers and subwoofer are the perfect choice if you want competitive surround-monitoring performance without having to spend big-studio megabucks to get it. Combine five HS50M or HS80M powered near-field reference monitors with one or more HS10W subwoofers, and you're ready to produce and deliver state-of-the-art surround sound.\u003ch3\u003eOptimum Response In Any Room\u003c\/h3\u003eSpeaker response can vary greatly depending on the size, shape, and surface acoustics of the room in which they're used, as well as how they're placed within that environment. The HS50M and HS80M give you extra room-matching and speaker placement versatility with ROOM CONTROL, MID EQ, and HIGH TRIM response control switches that are specifically designed to compensate for common acoustic deficiencies and monitoring needs. The ROOM CONTROL switch, for example, can be used to compensate for the unnatural low-end exaggeration that usually occurs when speakers are placed close to walls or in corners. The MID EQ switch gives you subtle midrange boost and cut options in addition to flat response, while the HIGH TRIM switch offer the same type of response-tailoring capability for the high frequencies.\u003ch3\u003eFeatures:\u003c\/h3\u003e- 2-way bass-reflex bi-amplified near field studio monitor with 5\" cone woofer and 1\" dome tweeter\u003cbr\u003e- 54Hz \u003cbr\u003e- 30kHz frequency response\u003cbr\u003e- 45W LF plus 25W HF bi-amp system for high-performance 70W power amplification\u003cbr\u003e- ROOM CONTROL and HIGH TRIM response controls\u003cbr\u003e- XLR and TRS phone jack inputs accept balanced or unbalanced signals","brand":"Yamaha","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":7069347217473,"sku":"YAM HS5W","price":199.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0006\/2550\/8417\/products\/01.Yamaha_HS5_Active_Studio_Monitor_White.jpg?v=1580304334"},{"product_id":"yam-hs7","title":"Yamaha HS7 Active Studio Monitor, Black","description":"The Yamaha HS7 is a 2-way bass-reflex bi-amplified near field studio monitor with 6.5\" cone woofer and 1\" dome tweeter.

Their design is inspired by the legacy of the 5C Sound Cubes used in virtually all-major studios for the last 25 years. The Avantone Active Mixcubes are designed to be high-resolution, full-range powered mini-reference monitors for fixed or remote locations. The secondary engineering facet was to create a timeless design that complements a single full-range transducer. \u003ch3\u003ePerformance Objective\u003c\/h3\u003eStudios primarily use 2-way \u0026amp; 3-way larger monitors designed to represent a wide range reference viewpoint at higher listening levels. However, in this developing age of High Definition Audio, there is still a need to also hear what your mix will sound like when played back over small bass-challenged systems such as televisions, clock radios, computers, car stereos, iPod docking stations, etc. It is important to make mixing judgments based partially on listening to reference monitors that will not impart tonal anomalies caused by crossovers or inferior full range drivers. Particular attention is always paid to the critical mid-range vocal\/guitar\/keyboard areas. This is where having a full-range monitor without a crossover is truly revealing. Ten months of R\u0026amp;D comparative listening \u0026amp; tweaking went into the voicing of the Avantone MixCubes. The result is a very smooth sounding, full range upgrade from the original 5C Sound Cubes. Listening tests reveal that the MixCubes have a smooth, more open, transparent top end response with extended bass while maintaining their basic original character. \u003ch3\u003eCabinet Design\u003c\/h3\u003eThe original 5C Sound Cubes were made of 1\/2 inch particleboard covered with a glue-on wood grain contact paper. Avantone chose to use thicker, denser MDF board because of its high rigidity and inherent low-resonance characteristics. They started with a 165mm (6 1\/2 inches) sealed cube design with radiused edges. They then chose an elegant Polyurethane high gloss Retro-Cream finish. The originals had either screws or on later models plastic binding posts mounted on a recessed plastic cup. Avantone upgraded to high-end nickel plated, machined solid metal binding posts (Dual banana spacing) mounted on a black anodized, milled and silk-screened aluminum terminal plate. Next, Avantone added a 7mm thick neoprene pad embedded into the base of the cabinet to serve as a skid-resistant acoustic isolator. Additionally, for creative mounting situations, they recessed an industry standard 5\/8 inches-27 mic stand mount into the base. \u003ch3\u003eDriver Design\u003c\/h3\u003eThe originals were a basic 5 inch stamped frame design. Avantone designed a proprietary 5.25 inch die cast aluminum frame driver\/cone assembly to exceed the performance of the originals. The mounting bezel is then polished for an elegant appearance. The paper cone, chosen for its musical character, is custom designed \u0026amp; crafted using the finest New Zealand pulp with mica fibers added for lighter weight \u0026amp; rigidity. The cloth surround is made in Japan to exacting uniform thickness tolerances. The Top Plate and T-Yoke of driver are made of Sumitomo 1008 low carbon steel enabling the highest modeled flux density in the gap. The magnets are Y\u003cbr\u003e- 40 Grade (MIL-SPEC) yielding a 43oz. High Power-low distortion motor structure. \u003ch3\u003eAmplifier Design\u003c\/h3\u003eAvantone designed the amp module from the ground up to be a true professional-grade amplifier. It incorporates overkill concepts in component selection as well as safety. The result is a no-compromise amp with robust headroom characteristics that will rival the performance of much higher priced studio rack mount amps. \u003ch3\u003eRear Panel Controls\/Connections\u003c\/h3\u003eBalanced Input: This combo XLR input accepts a balanced male XLR plug as well as a 3-conductor balanced TRS 1\/4 inch or a 2 conductor unbalanced TS 1\/4 inch male plug. For unbalanced operation with a TS connector the minus signal is automatically grounded.System Gain: This variable control adjusts the sensitivity of the signal that appears at the input. Rotating the control clockwise increases the sensitivity while a counter-clockwise rotation decreases sensitivity. The adjustable gain range is from -30 to +6 dB. A setting of +6 allows a full, unimpeded signal to be sent to the amplifier. The detented gain positions allow for repeatable settings between speakers for proper matching. Please Note... when the signal appearing at the input is too hot, the amplifier can overload causing distortion and possible damage to the speaker. If overload occurs, attenuate (decrease) the input level by turning the knob counter-clockwise a few clicks. On\/Off Switch: This illuminated switch turns the amplifier section on and off. The unit is still receiving power from the transformer however.AC Input: This input is only to be use with the proprietary Avantone Power Supply. Tighten the cable\/connector securely for reliable operation. Note: There is a switch on the power supply for selecting the proper AC\/Mains operating voltage for your location.Ground Lift Switch: By engaging this switch the pin 1 shield is lifted at the input jack. This can be used to aid in ground loop control of the incoming analog line signal.\u003ch3\u003ePlacement\u003c\/h3\u003eWhen positioning the Avantone MixCubes on stands or console bridges it is best to keep them at ear level and slightly angled in towards the engineer. Since they are shielded it is ok to place them near a CRT video monitor or TV without causing any problems. The bottom mic stand mounts will also allow you creative positioning options in unusual studio playback situations.","brand":"Avantone Pro","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":31286683238465,"sku":"AVN MIXCUBEAMRED","price":259.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0006\/2550\/8417\/products\/fjvlrixf8f61nlyhq0by.jpg?v=1579134466"},{"product_id":"avn-mixcubeared","title":"Avantone MixCubes Active Studio Monitor (60 Watts, 1x5.25 Inch), Red, Pair","description":"The Avantone MixCubes Active are shielded, full-range studio mini-reference monitors.

The secondary engineering facet was to create a timeless design that complements a single full-range transducer. \u003ch3\u003ePerformance Objective\u003c\/h3\u003eStudios primarily use 2-way \u0026amp; 3-way larger monitors designed to represent a wide range reference viewpoint at higher listening levels. However, in this developing age of High Definition Audio, there is still a need to also hear what your mix will sound like when played back over small bass-challenged systems such as televisions, clock radios, computers, car stereos, iPod docking stations, etc. It is important to make mixing judgments based partially on listening to reference monitors that will not impart tonal anomalies caused by crossovers or inferior full range drivers. Particular attention is always paid to the critical mid-range vocal\/guitar\/keyboard areas. This is where having a full-range monitor without a crossover is truly revealing. Ten months of R\u0026amp;D comparative listening \u0026amp; tweaking went into the voicing of the Avantone MixCubes. The result is a very smooth sounding, full range upgrade from the original 5C Sound Cubes. Listening tests reveal that the MixCubes have a smooth, more open, transparent top end response with extended bass while maintaining their basic original character. \u003ch3\u003eCabinet Design\u003c\/h3\u003eThe original 5C Sound Cubes were made of 1\/2 inch particleboard covered with a glue-on wood grain contact paper. Avantone chose to use thicker, denser MDF board because of its high rigidity and inherent low-resonance characteristics. They started with a 165mm (6 1\/2 inches) sealed cube design with radiused edges. They then chose an elegant Polyurethane high gloss Retro-Cream finish. The originals had either screws or on later models plastic binding posts mounted on a recessed plastic cup. Avantone upgraded to high-end nickel plated, machined solid metal binding posts (Dual banana spacing) mounted on a black anodized, milled and silk-screened aluminum terminal plate. Next, Avantone added a 7mm thick neoprene pad embedded into the base of the cabinet to serve as a skid-resistant acoustic isolator. Additionally, for creative mounting situations, they recessed an industry standard 5\/8 inches-27 mic stand mount into the base. \u003ch3\u003eDriver Design\u003c\/h3\u003eThe originals were a basic 5 inch stamped frame design. Avantone designed a proprietary 5.25 inch die cast aluminum frame driver\/cone assembly to exceed the performance of the originals. The mounting bezel is then polished for an elegant appearance. The paper cone, chosen for its musical character, is custom designed \u0026amp; crafted using the finest New Zealand pulp with mica fibers added for lighter weight \u0026amp; rigidity. The cloth surround is made in Japan to exacting uniform thickness tolerances. The Top Plate and T-Yoke of driver are made of Sumitomo 1008 low carbon steel enabling the highest modeled flux density in the gap. The magnets are Y\u003cbr\u003e- 40 Grade (MIL-SPEC) yielding a 43oz. High Power-low distortion motor structure. \u003ch3\u003eAmplifier Design\u003c\/h3\u003eAvantone designed the amp module from the ground up to be a true professional-grade amplifier. It incorporates overkill concepts in component selection as well as safety. The result is a no-compromise amp with robust headroom characteristics that will rival the performance of much higher priced studio rack mount amps. \u003ch3\u003eRear Panel Controls\/Connections\u003c\/h3\u003eBalanced Input: This combo XLR input accepts a balanced male XLR plug as well as a 3-conductor balanced TRS 1\/4 inch or a 2 conductor unbalanced TS 1\/4 inch male plug. For unbalanced operation with a TS connector the minus signal is automatically grounded.System Gain: This variable control adjusts the sensitivity of the signal that appears at the input. Rotating the control clockwise increases the sensitivity while a counter-clockwise rotation decreases sensitivity. The adjustable gain range is from -30 to +6 dB. A setting of +6 allows a full, unimpeded signal to be sent to the amplifier. The detented gain positions allow for repeatable settings between speakers for proper matching. Please Note... when the signal appearing at the input is too hot, the amplifier can overload causing distortion and possible damage to the speaker. If overload occurs, attenuate (decrease) the input level by turning the knob counter-clockwise a few clicks. On\/Off Switch: This illuminated switch turns the amplifier section on and off. The unit is still receiving power from the transformer however.AC Input: This input is only to be use with the proprietary Avantone Power Supply. Tighten the cable\/connector securely for reliable operation. Note: There is a switch on the power supply for selecting the proper AC\/Mains operating voltage for your location.Ground Lift Switch: By engaging this switch the pin 1 shield is lifted at the input jack. This can be used to aid in ground loop control of the incoming analog line signal.\u003ch3\u003ePlacement\u003c\/h3\u003eWhen positioning the Avantone MixCubes on stands or console bridges it is best to keep them at ear level and slightly angled in towards the engineer. Since they are shielded it is ok to place them near a CRT video monitor or TV without causing any problems. The bottom mic stand mounts will also allow you creative positioning options in unusual studio playback situations.","brand":"Avantone Pro","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":31286683271233,"sku":"AVN MIXCUBEARED","price":499.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0006\/2550\/8417\/products\/ickurp8p156cuohzex94.jpg?v=1579113551"},{"product_id":"fol-foproshape50","title":"Focal Shape 50 Active Powered Studio Monitor, Single Speaker","description":"Shape 50 is the versatile monitoring loudspeaker par excellence.

Yamaha HS Series cabinets are designed to eliminate unwanted resonance and increase the accuracy of sound reproduction to their extreme limit. Drawing from Yamaha's over 100 years of piano design experience, HS Series engineers also employed a traditional three-way mitered-joint technique to dramatically improve durability and eliminate unwanted resonance.When choosing reference monitors for mixing and music production, accuracy is the prime consideration. Speakers that sound \"good\" on first impression may not necessarily be accurate. What you really need is an honest reference for your mix, rather than monitors that have been tweaked or colored to deceptively sound impressive.The HS series reference monitors have been created by Yamaha's studio monitor engineering team to deliver exceptionally flat, accurate response that you can trust. Unlike \"monitor\" speakers with exaggerated bass and treble that make a good first impression but can't be relied on for accuracy, the HS series were designed to be true studio reference monitors in the tradition of the legendary Yamaha NS10M.Whether you're mixing for stereo or 5.1 surround, mixes that sound good on Yamaha HS series reference monitors will translate accurately to the widest possible range of reproduction systems ... which is engineer-speak that simply means they'll sound good on anything. And that is the ultimate goal of any reference monitor. We should also mention that the HS-series monitors not only sound great, they look great, too.\u003ch3\u003eHigh-performance Speakers and Mounting System\u003c\/h3\u003eThe elegant white-cone speakers used in the HS-series monitors deliver superlative audio performance that is further enhanced by a carefully engineered mounting system. A system of screws and a specially designed mounting ring eliminates spurious vibration and resonance, allowing the speaker to deliver its full sonic potential. Another feature that boosts woofer performance is a magnet selected to produce accurate, solid low-end response. The tweeter frames employ an advanced smooth-contour design that minimizes losses so that high-frequency details come through with remarkable accuracy. The extra thickness of the tweeter frame also minimizes resonance that can interfere with high-end clarity. The overall result is extraordinarily smooth, accurate response throughout the audio spectrum.\u003ch3\u003eThe Benefits of Built-in Power and Bi-amplification\u003c\/h3\u003ePowered, bi-amplified monitor speakers simply make the most electrical and sonic sense, and that's why they have become the first choice of sound professionals the world over for near\u003cbr\u003e- and mid-field monitoring applications. In addition to the obvious advantage that you don't need separate power amplifiers, the fact that power and speakers are integrated in one unit means that the amplifiers can be perfectly matched to the characteristics of the speaker units used so you get consistently superior performance with any source in just about any listening environment. Bi-amplification means that separate power amplifiers are used to drive the low-mid and high-frequency speaker units, and this eliminates interaction between the units as well as the response and phase anomalies introduced by passive crossover networks. Both speaker units can function at optimum performance levels for correspondingly high overall sonic quality.\u003ch3\u003eLarge Magnets in an Advanced Magnetic Circuit Design\u003c\/h3\u003eOne feature of the HS-series monitors that you'll hear but are not likely to see is the extra large magnets.

A system like this is not only portable and extremely easy to set up anywhere you need it, it can deliver outstanding monitoring performance that will let you get your mixes just right. The response-control features of these monitors let you tweak them for the best response no matter where you set them up.\u003ch3\u003eSerious Surround Production\u003c\/h3\u003eAlthough stereo is still the most common format for basic music listening, 5.1 surround has become the audio format of choice for today's advanced visual media, and is beginning to be recognized as a superior vehicle for pure musical enjoyment as well. But to properly mix and produce surround sound you need a good 5.1 monitoring system. The HS-series speakers and subwoofer are the perfect choice if you want competitive surround-monitoring performance without having to spend big-studio megabucks to get it. Combine five HS50M or HS80M powered near-field reference monitors with one or more HS10W subwoofers, and you're ready to produce and deliver state-of-the-art surround sound.\u003ch3\u003eOptimum Response In Any Room\u003c\/h3\u003eSpeaker response can vary greatly depending on the size, shape, and surface acoustics of the room in which they're used, as well as how they're placed within that environment. The HS50M and HS80M give you extra room-matching and speaker placement versatility with ROOM CONTROL, MID EQ, and HIGH TRIM response control switches that are specifically designed to compensate for common acoustic deficiencies and monitoring needs. The ROOM CONTROL switch, for example, can be used to compensate for the unnatural low-end exaggeration that usually occurs when speakers are placed close to walls or in corners.

What you really need is an honest reference for your mix, rather than monitors that have been tweaked or colored to deceptively sound impressive.The HS series reference monitors have been created by Yamaha's studio monitor engineering team to deliver exceptionally flat, accurate response that you can trust. Unlike \"monitor\" speakers with exaggerated bass and treble that make a good first impression but can't be relied on for accuracy, the HS series were designed to be true studio reference monitors in the tradition of the legendary Yamaha NS10M.Whether you're mixing for stereo or 5.1 surround, mixes that sound good on Yamaha HS series reference monitors will translate accurately to the widest possible range of reproduction systems ... which is engineer-speak that simply means they'll sound good on anything. And that is the ultimate goal of any reference monitor. We should also mention that the HS-series monitors not only sound great, they look great, too.\u003ch3\u003eHigh-performance Speakers and Mounting System\u003c\/h3\u003eThe elegant white-cone speakers used in the HS-series monitors deliver superlative audio performance that is further enhanced by a carefully engineered mounting system. A system of screws and a specially designed mounting ring eliminates spurious vibration and resonance, allowing the speaker to deliver its full sonic potential. Another feature that boosts woofer performance is a magnet selected to produce accurate, solid low-end response. The tweeter frames employ an advanced smooth-contour design that minimizes losses so that high-frequency details come through with remarkable accuracy. The extra thickness of the tweeter frame also minimizes resonance that can interfere with high-end clarity. The overall result is extraordinarily smooth, accurate response throughout the audio spectrum.\u003ch3\u003eThe Benefits of Built-in Power and Bi-amplification\u003c\/h3\u003ePowered, bi-amplified monitor speakers simply make the most electrical and sonic sense, and that's why they have become the first choice of sound professionals the world over for near\u003cbr\u003e- and mid-field monitoring applications. In addition to the obvious advantage that you don't need separate power amplifiers, the fact that power and speakers are integrated in one unit means that the amplifiers can be perfectly matched to the characteristics of the speaker units used so you get consistently superior performance with any source in just about any listening environment. Bi-amplification means that separate power amplifiers are used to drive the low-mid and high-frequency speaker units, and this eliminates interaction between the units as well as the response and phase anomalies introduced by passive crossover networks. Both speaker units can function at optimum performance levels for correspondingly high overall sonic quality.\u003ch3\u003eLarge Magnets in an Advanced Magnetic Circuit Design\u003c\/h3\u003eOne feature of the HS-series monitors that you'll hear but are not likely to see is the extra large magnets. In combination with an advanced magnetic circuit design these magnets provide a powerful, uniform, tightly controlled flux field that results in exceptionally smooth response and dynamic capability over a wider frequency range.\u003ch3\u003ePortable, Versatile Monitoring for Your Audio Workstation\u003c\/h3\u003eAll you really need for top-class stereo production capability is a good audio workstation and a pair of HS-series monitors. A system like this is not only portable and extremely easy to set up anywhere you need it, it can deliver outstanding monitoring performance that will let you get your mixes just right. The response-control features of these monitors let you tweak them for the best response no matter where you set them up.\u003ch3\u003eSerious Surround Production\u003c\/h3\u003eAlthough stereo is still the most common format for basic music listening, 5.1 surround has become the audio format of choice for today's advanced visual media, and is beginning to be recognized as a superior vehicle for pure musical enjoyment as well. But to properly mix and produce surround sound you need a good 5.1 monitoring system. The HS-series speakers and subwoofer are the perfect choice if you want competitive surround-monitoring performance without having to spend big-studio megabucks to get it. Combine five HS50M or HS80M powered near-field reference monitors with one or more HS10W subwoofers, and you're ready to produce and deliver state-of-the-art surround sound.\u003ch3\u003eOptimum Response In Any Room\u003c\/h3\u003eSpeaker response can vary greatly depending on the size, shape, and surface acoustics of the room in which they're used, as well as how they're placed within that environment. The HS50M and HS80M give you extra room-matching and speaker placement versatility with ROOM CONTROL, MID EQ, and HIGH TRIM response control switches that are specifically designed to compensate for common acoustic deficiencies and monitoring needs. The ROOM CONTROL switch, for example, can be used to compensate for the unnatural low-end exaggeration that usually occurs when speakers are placed close to walls or in corners. The MID EQ switch gives you subtle midrange boost and cut options in addition to flat response, while the HIGH TRIM switch offer the same type of response-tailoring capability for the high frequencies.\u003ch3\u003eFeatures:\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cbr\u003e- 2-way bass-reflex bi-amplified near field studio monitor with 5\" cone woofer and 1\" dome tweeter\u003cbr\u003e- 54Hz \u003cbr\u003e- 30kHz frequency response\u003cbr\u003e- 45W LF plus 25W HF bi-amp system for high-performance 70W power amplification\u003cbr\u003e- ROOM CONTROL and HIGH TRIM response controls\u003cbr\u003e- XLR and TRS phone jack inputs accept balanced or unbalanced signals","brand":"Yamaha","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":31287460134977,"sku":"YAM HS5WSUB PAK","price":849.97,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0006\/2550\/8417\/products\/01.Yamaha_HS5_Active_Studio_Monitor_White_Pair_with_Yamaha_HS8S_Powered_Studio_Subwoofer.jpg?v=1580406005"},{"product_id":"yam-hs7-pr","title":"Yamaha HS7 Active Studio Monitor, Black, Pair","description":"The Yamaha HS7 is a 2-way bass-reflex bi-amplified near field studio monitor with 6.5\" cone woofer and 1\" dome tweeter.

The MID EQ switch gives you subtle midrange boost and cut options in addition to flat response, while the HIGH TRIM switch offer the same type of response-tailoring capability for the high frequencies.\u003ch3\u003eFeatures:\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cbr\u003e- 2-way bass-reflex bi-amplified near field studio monitor with 8\" cone woofer and 1\" dome tweeter\u003cbr\u003e- 38Hz \u003cbr\u003e- 30kHz frequency response\u003cbr\u003e- 75W LF plus 45W HF bi-amp system for high-performance 120W power amplification\u003cbr\u003e- ROOM CONTROL and HIGH TRIM response controls\u003cbr\u003e- XLR and TRS phone jack inputs accept balanced or unbalanced signals","brand":"Yamaha","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":31287460266049,"sku":"YAM HS8SUB PAK","price":1297.97,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0006\/2550\/8417\/products\/01.Yamaha_HS8_Active_Studio_Monitor_Black_Pair_with_Yamaha_HS8S_Powered_Studio_Subwoofer.jpg?v=1580382045"}],"url":"https:\/\/www.samedaymusic.com\/collections\/active-powered-studio-monitors-1.oembed?page=2","provider":"Same Day Music","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
