PM0.5
The ideal choice for smaller studios requiring nearfield monitoring, the
perfectly formed PM0.5 offers 70 watts of bi-amped power and produces
great full range performance with exceptional neutrality even at high Sound
pressure levels. The compact dimensions also enable accurate placement in
confined or awkward spaces, with the dispersion from the two way ported
enclosure design tailored such that it will deliver a superb sound almost
regardless of room acoustics. Features a UFLC 20mm soft dome HF unit
and 130mm LF woofer and input gain control.
PM-1
Perfectly proportioned and offering the type of clear-transparent sound that
singles out a great speaker, the PM-1 is capable of producing extremely high
SPLs accurately across the full audio spectrum. With 120 watts of bi-amped
power and a bass response that’s full and dynamic and a crisp high-end that
sparkles with vitality, the PM-1 delivers the type of sonic quality that’s usually
the domain of monitors costing thousands. Features a UFLC 25mm soft
dome HF unit, 160mm LF woofer and input gain control.
PM-2
Created for larger rooms, the PM-2 has the power and sophistication and,
most importantly the versatility to handle the most demanding recording
applications. Equipped with a 200mm low frequency unit and remaining
natural and transparent right across the audio spectrum, even at high sound
pressure levels, the PM-2 is great for today’s bass heavy music. Features
240 watts of bi-amped power, UFLC 25mm soft dome HF unit, 200mm LF
woofer, separate HF gain control, overall volume control and a 0dB / -3dB /
+3dB switch for the LF unit.

HF UNIT
The soft dome
tweeters employ
Fostex’s UFLC
technology (Poly
Urethane Film
Laminated Cloth) to
achieve light weight
and high stability
performance.
LF UNIT
Uses a mixture of
cut and milled fibres
made from aromatic
polyamide
impregnated with
resins to
simultaneously
achieve high rigidity
and optimum
damping.
An olefin film is
thermally adhered to
its surface to control
frequency response
and ensure reliability.
Distortion is
minimized by the use
of an ultra-pure
copper voice coil.

ELECTRONICS
All PM-Series monitors feature
internal bi-amplification
employing two state-of-the-art
amplifiers which are precisely
calibrated to match the
performance of the drive units
and utilize high quality discrete
bipolar output devices:
PM0.5 - 35w, LF 35w
PM-1 - 45w, LF 75w
PM-2 - 120w, LF 120w
High-capacity power supply
units are used for excellent
transient response.
PM0.5 and PM-1 feature a
XLR/6mm jack input with gain
control while the PM-2
benefits from individual HF gain
control, overall volume control
and a 0dB / -3dB / +3dB
switch for the LF unit.
