Rock-Solid Bass Performance

Bass you can feel takes some heavy-duty power and components. That’s why the SBX10 carries a hefty 240 watts of totally discrete Class A/B power for tons of headroom. The 10-inch driver features an oversized magnet and a high-temperature, long-throw voice coil, delivering maximum low frequency output and optimized power handling. The cabinet is made of 3/4-inch vinyl-clad MDF with 1-inch front and back baffles, serious internal bracing and a flared rear bass-reflex port to minimize turbulence and improve low frequency efficiency. The fiberglass/paper composite driver provides exceptionally accurate bass response, resulting in a clean and refined low-frequency extension that minimizes listener fatigue.

No More Guesswork

A good monitoring system allows you to create material that translates well across a variety of playback environments. As such, it’s important to know what your mixes will sound like both with and without the low-frequency extension a subwoofer provides. Fortunately, the SBX10 includes a subwoofer bypass function that completely removes the subwoofer amp, speaker, and crossover from the signal path—sending the full-bandwidth program to your direct-field monitors. By plugging in the included footswitch, you can control this function dynamically as you’re playing back your material—even from across the room.

Optimizing Your Studio Monitor Setup and Placement

Why would anyone need directions for setting up reference monitors? Just put them on your desk, and you’re done, right? Well, it turns out that reference monitors are actually one of the most important and influential elements of your studio, and can really make or break the performance of your whole setup.
