About the Tuned Reference Series
Our engineers have spent years designing transducers, studio electronics,
and high performance studio monitoring systems—including some of the
most popular professional speakers used today. Now, using the latest
digital acoustic design tools and high performance driver and power
amplifier technology, they’ve developed the Tuned Reference series, and
in so doing, have set new standards in performance and value for direct
field monitors.
The TR8 and 8XL feature the same woofer, tweeter, enclosure, and active
4th-order crossover as their critically-acclaimed forebear, the 20/20bas
™
.
The TR6 and TR5 use the same woofers, tweeters, enclosures, and active
crossovers as the award-winning Project Studio
™
6 and 5, respectively. All
models are biamplified, coming equipped with newly-designed high-
efficiency amplifiers that provide high SPL (Sound Pressure Level) output,
lower distortion, smoother amplitude and phase response, and extended
bandwidth. The Tuned Reference amplifiers also boast significant
improvements in signal-to-noise ratio, input common mode rejection ratio,
and overall reliability. Additionally, in the TR8 XL model, the amplifier is
powered by a torroidal transformer, giving the unit lower mechanical and
electrical noise characteristics.
Unpacking
The shipping container and inner boxes are designed to protect your
speakers during transit. Please unpack and check your speakers carefully,
and immediately report any damage to your dealer or to the company that
delivered the speakers to you. The packing materials are designed to be
reused—do not discard them. If you need to return the speakers to the
factory for repair, they must be shipped in the original packaging.
