2.1 Studio monitoring system consisting of 2x HS8 and 1x HS8S Sub.

This set is composed of the following parts

The HS series has newly developed sound transducers that enable an astonishingly balanced reproduction over a wide frequency range. The response behavior of the loudspeaker magnets and the magnetic field they generate have been perfected and play a major role in flawless, natural-sounding sound conversion. All assemblies, including their raw materials and the circuit design, were carefully checked and re-optimized in order to ultimately achieve an absolutely accurate signal reproduction in the entire audible audio spectrum.

Très bon son pour le prix. Bon service de livraison par MusiX pour les produits fragiles !

Features

Perfect for analog use, especially if you add a 1.8 Ohm impedance resistor to each terminal to protect against overloads. This prevents the highs from sounding too harsh. For digital use, I recommend connecting a pre-amplifier, as this is a pure amplifier circuit without any accessories. Another criticism is the resonant behavior, which fortunately can be corrected by installing a larger enclosure for the woofer, which is equipped with a passive membrane. This also provides more low bass. However, I am satisfied with the mid-range, as most transistor amplifiers tend to sound rather poorly in this range. Conclusion: If you don't have high expectations, limited funds, and space, these speakers are still perfectly adequate.
