Main Features
●
In Pursuit of High Sound Quality
The DS-8/7/5 powered monitor uses a two-way, bi-
amplifier design to achieve high sound quality.
The LF driver and dome HF driver use separate amps
sections for LF and HF, ensuring optimal sound quality.
In particular, the DS-8/7 feature completely discrete DC
power amps for the highest possible quality.
●
Analog Input
In addition to an XLR connector, which provides for
balanced input, a 1/4" TRS phone jack accommodating either balanced or unbalanced input
is also provided. This assures broad-ranging connectivity.
●
Digital Input
The digital inputs (coaxial and optical) support 24-bit digital audio data at sampling rates up
to 192 kHz. AES/EBU professional audio format digital input is also provided.
Digitally input signals are reproduced faithfully through 24-bit D/A conversion, thus
preventing noise or a drop in sound quality.
You can use the monitors with a wide variety of equipment and applications through
selective use of the analog and digital settings.
●
Magnetically Shielded Low- and High-Frequency Drivers
