EVENT ASP-8 Studio Precision Series
Direct Field Monitors
This is where it’s at. The Studio Precision 8 monitor from Event
represents the ultimate in direct field monitoring.
The ASP8 features entirely custom engineered components - new
low frequency drivers, new cabinets, and new bass ports. Custom
designed in every aspect, the drivers deliver a whole new level of
performance in part through the use of neodymium magnets.
Neodymium, a rare earth material at the forefront of
loudspeaker technology, produces significantly higher
magnetic energy than conventional ceramic magnets. This allows the
creation of a “supercharged” driver motor that provides for lower
distortion and a much greater level of output efficiency - that is, more
output per watt - than woofers designed with traditional magnets.
The cabinets themselves were carefully designed to deliver deep,
low frequency response yet be small enough to fit comfortably into
today’s modern recording environments. Constructed from 3/4” MDF
(precision-milled to 0.005” tolerance), any sound emanating from
the speakers is pure and clean - free from artificial tones created by
unwanted cabinet resonance.
