Introduction Studio is a high-performance loudspeaker system for music enthusiasts looking for absolute performance in a compact, affordable package. The uncompromising design ethos primarily embraces trickle down driver technology from the flagship Platinum II series. Every detail of the signal chain has been considered to achieve neutrality, which required our design team to think in a very uncompromising fashion.
Monitor Audio’s port technology uses a straight rifled design to accelerate air flow and reduce turbulence. HiVe II technology has the ability to move air in and out much quicker than a conventional port, the result is fast powerful bass coupled with superior transient response. The super slim Studio cabinet is tuned using two rear mounted HiVe II ports mounted at the top and bottom of the cabinet, this is to ensure the pressure inside the cabinet is balanced symmetrically.
Unpacking Please ensure to allow sufficient clear floor area, and follow all pictorial guides on the product carton. Cut the tape sealing the carton, taking care not to cut deeper than the tape, fold back the top folds of the cardboard to expose the polystyrene and remove any accessories, but leaving the polystyrene in place. With the carton the right way up and opened, turn it over so the polystyrene end cap is now in contact with the floor.
ENGLISH Connecting Speaker Cables Bare Wire Connection Unscrew each binding post, and pass the bare wire through the exposed hole, and re-tighten. Banana Plugs Remove the red and black plastic plugs from the terminals, using pliers as necessary, and insert the banana plugs into the standard 4mm holes exposed. Spade Connectors Unscrew each binding post, and place the spade connector around the exposed thread, and re-tighten.
Retention Bolt Adjustment The Studio loudspeaker has a bolt-through driver fixing to reduce cabinet colouration. Each bolt acts as a rigid brace, but also removes the need for conventional driver fixings as well, effectively decoupling the driver and front baffle to eliminate a further source of resonance. NOTE: Should this bolt become loose over time, or has worked loose during transit, then please use the supplied hex key to tighten the bolt back up.
