The newest HS Series reference monitors are designed as true reference monitors with exceptionally flat response. They provide an ideal sonic platform to build on throughout the mixing process.
Here is an overview of the new series:
High-performance Speakers and Mounting System
The 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.
The Benefits of Built-in Power and Bi-amplification
Powered, 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- 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.
Large Magnets in an Advanced Magnetic Circuit Design
One 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.
Portable, Versatile Monitoring for Your Audio Workstation
All 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.
Serious Surround Production
Although 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.
