VL-X5
Bi-Amplified Nearfield
Studio Monitor
Preliminary Information
TASCAM’s VL-X5 bi-amplified nearfield studio monitor is
the perfect choice for recording studios, home and project
studios, and any other application needing accurate audio
playback in a small package.
The VL-X5’s extraordinary sound quality can be attributed to its components and how they work together. A
custom designed 1-inch silk high frequency driver and a
5.25-inch low frequency driver are coupled with 30 and 60
watt power amplifiers made especially for the VL-X5,
giving you crisp, tight highs and rich deep bass. Flat
frequency response up to 22kHz makes the VL-X5 a great
mixing and mastering monitor. Magnetic shielding means
you can place a pair of VL-X5s next to your DAW computer,
and the Acoustic Space Control allows you to place the
monitors against a wall or in tight studio corners.
In all, the VL-X5’s impressive specifications translate into
a much larger and clearer sound field than most monitors
in its class.
