About this product
The SM-5 5-Inch 3-Way Powered Studio Monitor is designed for critical listening, mixing, and production environments where accuracy and detail are essential. Featuring a 3-way coincident architecture, it combines a 5-inch woofer, a 4-inch midrange driver, and a coaxial 1-inch metal dome tweeter to function as an acoustic point source, delivering a cohesive soundstage with precise imaging and reduced off-axis inconsistencies commonly found in 2-way designs. User-definable DSP controls allow each speaker to be calibrated to its environment with 8 bands of EQ, along with delay and trim adjustments, and multiple calibration profiles can be stored for different room setups or listening targets. The transducers are engineered for smooth response and low distortion, with a refined woofer design that reduces magnetic flux modulation, a midrange optimized to serve as a waveguide for the tweeter, and a specially designed aluminum dome tweeter that minimizes ultrasonic resonances. With 150W of amplification, less than 1% total harmonic distortion, and a low-frequency response down to 39 Hz (-10 dB), the SM-5 supports full-range monitoring at high output levels, reaching up to 117 dB peak SPL. Part of the Santa Monica series, this monitor is built for professional workflows and immersive audio applications, offering detailed stereo imaging and consistent performance across listening positions. Flexible mounting options with standard 4.25 x 2-inch hole patterns allow integration with compatible speaker mounts, making it suitable for studio installations and multi-speaker setups.
Features

The IN-8 V2 is an 8-inch tri-amped 3-way powered studio monitor built for accurate monitoring, strong imaging and flexible placement in professional and project studio setups. Its coaxial midrange and tweeter design helps create a consistent soundstage, while the 8-inch low-frequency driver supports controlled bass extension for mixing, editing and production work. A 140W Class D amplifier system powers each driver independently, giving the monitor the clarity and headroom needed for detailed listening. Room control, high trim and low trim settings help adapt the speaker to common desk, wall and room placements, so you can work with more confidence in real environments. With balanced XLR and 1/4-inch inputs plus unbalanced RCA, the IN-8 V2 connects easily to audio interfaces, mixers and other production gear.

The Fyne Audio F55E is a slim 2.5-way floorstanding loudspeaker designed to deliver full-scale performance without dominating the room. A 5-inch IsoFlare point-source driver combines a multi-fibre bass/mid cone with a 19mm titanium dome compression tweeter, while a second 5-inch multi-fibre bass driver adds low-frequency weight. The downward-firing port and patented BassTrax Tractrix diffuser spread bass energy evenly through the room for smoother response and easier placement. With 88 dB sensitivity and a compact Black Ash cabinet, the F55E is equally at home with music or home theater.

The SM-8 8-Inch 3-Way Powered Studio Monitor is designed for critical listening, mixing and production environments where accuracy, output and detail are essential. Featuring a 3-way coincident architecture, it combines an 8-inch woofer, a 4-inch midrange driver and a coaxial 1-inch metal dome tweeter to function as an acoustic point source, delivering a cohesive soundstage with precise imaging and reduced off-axis inconsistencies commonly found in 2-way designs. User-definable DSP controls allow each speaker to be calibrated to its environment with 8 bands of EQ, along with delay and trim adjustments, and multiple calibration profiles can be stored for different room setups or listening targets. The transducers are engineered for smooth response and low distortion, with a flux-stabilized woofer, a midrange optimized to serve as a waveguide for the tweeter and a specially designed metal dome tweeter that helps reduce ultrasonic resonances. With 300W of Class D amplification, frequency response down to 37 Hz (-10 dB) and up to 119 dB peak SPL, the SM-8 supports full-range monitoring at high output levels for larger rooms and demanding studio workflows. Part of the Santa Monica series, this monitor is built for professional stereo, surround and immersive audio applications, offering detailed spatial imaging and consistent performance across listening positions. Ethernet network control through the Kali Control Panel app and USB-A per-speaker setup support efficient calibration across complex monitor systems, while the mounting-ready design helps integrate the speaker into studio installations and multi-speaker setups.
