Akai RPM800

Bi-amplified studio monitor that was engineered for meticulous reproduction of even the most complex modern music and easily handles layer after layer of sound, providing critical detail and the tools needed to mix with confidence. It offers pure and accurate frequency response from 38 Hz to 30 kHz. The 120W distributed Class A/B provides the woofer and tweeter dedicated amplification – 80 Watts to the 8” woofer with 1.5” voice-coil and high-damping rubber surround, 40 Watts to the silk-dome tweeter with 1.25” voice coil – meaning it provides ultra-efficient power and minimal distortion. The flared rear-firing bass port delivers low-frequency depth and definition. Dedicated Proximity and EQ-tailoring controls provide the ability to fine-tune the speaker in diverse mixing environments. The monitor also features HF Trim, MF Boost, and LF Cut-off controls, which allow for finding the right balance in any environment. The included monitor isolation pad dramatically decreases structure-borne resonances, and the integrated radio frequency protection preserves signal purity. The monitor includes XLR, balanced 6.3mm TRS, and RCA inputs. Its cabinet is painstakingly reinforced to minimize flex, combating unwanted coloration while blocking anomalies and sound artefacts from polluting the mix. The no-compromise build quality is reflected even in the ‘invisible’ components such as the recess-mounted amp, on/off transient protection, and 14-gauge wiring to transducers. The monitor also features a built-in output current limiter, over-temperature limiter, and subsonic filter. Dimensions: 434 x 361 x 287 mm. Weight: 13.65 kg.
