MSP STUDIO

There are a number of advantages to multi-amp speaker setups, but the added cost and extra equipment required can make them impractical in many situations. With the MSP7 STUDIO everything you need is builtin - all you have to do is supply the line-level input. The 6.5 inch cone woofer is driven by an 80-watt power amplifier, while the 1 inch dome tweeter has its own 50-watt power amplifier. In the MSP7 STUDIO this particular power and driver combination results in the perfect balance between the low-mid and high frequency ranges. The frequency ranges are divided via a carefully designed electronic crossover before the power amplifier inputs, featuring steep 30-dB/octave roll-off curves in both the low- and high-pass filters. The steep roll-off minimizes inter-modulation between the frequency bands at the crossover point, achieving significantly smoother, cleaner crossover performance in the critical midrange. And the fact that the crossover is a linelevel electronic design completely eliminates the loss, distortion, and sometimes severe inter-modulation that are almost unavoidable in conventional passive crossover networks driven by a single power amplifier.

Wood can be good, but synthetic materials have advanced to the point where they offer some overwhelming advantages. In addition to the fact that enclosures materials can be created with ideal density and resonance characteristics, they can be molded to almost any shape with precise tolerances. Where wood cabinets have glued joints that interrupt the continuity of the enclosure, the thick walled MSP7 STUDIO cabinet is molded in one piece, resulting in smooth acoustic transfer throughout the entire enclosure for superior reproduction precision. One-piece molding also makes it possible to produce the large-radius rounded baffle corners that help to maintain a natural wavefront and minimize diffraction for a smoother, more uniform polar response, as shown in the accompanying plots. Internal tweeter mounting also boosts high-frequency performance by eliminating spurious resonance from the tweeter frame.

The MSP7 STUDIO features a balanced XLR-type connector for input. This provides direct compatibility with professional gear and allows the use of balanced lines for maximum audio quality even where long cable runs are required. Rear-panel controls include a continuous input sensitivity control, and trim switches that enable you to adjust the bass and treble in four and three positions, respectively (+1.5 dB/0 dB/-1.5 dB/-3 dB at 50 Hz and +1.5 dB/0 dB/-1.5 dB at 10 kHz), so that the system's response to be quickly matched to the room. There's also a low cut (FLAT, 80 Hz, 100 Hz) switch that is useful when the MSP7 STUDIO is used with the SW10 STUDIO subwoofer. The AC power cord is removable for easy transportation and setup.

The MSP7 STUDIO features a refined appearance that is a perfect match for its outstanding monitor performance. It is in fact "functional beauty" that results from an uncompromising approach to reproduction quality. The elegant rounded baffle has been primarily designed for superior dispersion characteristics, and is visually balanced by a high-efficiency rounded heat sink on the rear panel. The integral waveguide horn also contributes to outstanding sound while adding to the speaker's visual appeal. Some speakers are designed to look good. The MSP7 STUDIO has been designed throughout for superior sound, and looks great as a result.

La MSP5 STUDIO est une enceinte bass-reflex bi-amplifiée offrant une précision et une résolution exceptionnelles. Ses dimensions compactes en font un choix idéal pour les home-studios ambitieux et les studios de production basés sur des logiciels audio-numériques. La MSP5 STUDIO comprend un boomer à cône de 5" piloté par un amplificateur de 40 watts, et un tweeter à dôme de 1" piloté par un amplificateur de 27 watts. Le haut-parleur de graves et le tweeter à dôme en titane possèdent des structures magnétiques avancées offrant une distorsion exceptionnellement faible. Le tweeter fonctionne avec un guide d'ondes unique qui permet une dispersion large et uniforme des hautes fréquences sur 120 degrés pour une réponse optimale quelle que soit la position d'écoute. La conception avancée du coffret, dont le déflecteur arrondi à faible diffraction, assure également une dispersion uniforme quelle que soit la fréquence. La réponse en fréquence uniforme jusqu'à 40 kHz fait de la MSP5 STUDIO un excellent outil de contrôle pour le mastering, où les taux d'échantillonnage et les résolutions élevées sont la norme.

Compact et d'une fiabilité exemplaire, le coffret des MSP5 STUDIO dispose d'un blindage magnétique complet, et permet aux enceintes MSP5 STUDIO d'être placées à proximité de tout type d'équipements audio, vidéo et informatiques sans dégradation du son ni effets négatifs sur les équipements environnants.

La MSP5 STUDIO dispose d’une entrée symétrique XLR pour une compatibilité directe avec les équipements professionnels. Les liaisons symétriques sont idéales, en particulier si les enceintes sont reliées avec de longs câbles souvent sujets aux bourdonnements et autres bruits parasites. La MSP5 STUDIO offre également un connecteur jack asymétrique 6,35mm.

La MSP5 STUDIO est équipé de deux commutateurs à multiples positions permettant d'optimiser la réponse du système pour un grande variété d'environnements acoustiques.
