Samson Resolv 80a Active Reference Monitors
What is the difference between a good pair of hi-fi speakers and true studio monitors? Two things. First, hi-fi home speakers exaggerate the lows (and often the highs) to create maximum 'impact'. This can be fun to listen to but it's seldom accurate. Studio monitors are very accurate to insure a real reproduction of what is actually being recorded. And second, monitors must be very transparent sounding. This allows you to effectively mix parts of the music like vocals, bass, and even reverb trails without each part colliding with another. Well, you have just described the sound of the new Samson Resolve Series Studio Monitors. The Resolv80A is a powered studio monitor with an 8 in. woofer and a 1 in. Titanium tweeter. It's bi-amp powered by 100 watts of power (75W for the lows, 25W for the highs), and A/V shielded. Features include a variable midrange control, automatic standby mode, 1/4 in. TRS balanced and RCA unbalanced inputs.

Ideal for mid- to large-sized control rooms where high volume and serious bass response are required.
