Line-Master COAXIALE STUDIOMONITORE

Active Coaxial Monitor for all Applications

– Made in Germany

The development of the new coaxial monitor from KSdigital has been optimized, especially

for a correct phase and impulse reproduction. As a point sound source without axial offset

in either horizontal or vertical planes, the coax system reaches a phenomenal depth and

presence. The utilization of a carbon-fiber membrane in the low-mid chassis and the new

construction of a neodymium tweeter in the center of the chassis, produce an active monitor

with extraordinarily exact reproduction characteristics. The very compact construction permits

an operation in the primary or midfield with the control of the entire frequency spectrum.

With the development and manufacture of the coaxial chassis in Germany, we are able to

provide quality within very narrow tolerances at an extremely high level.

The acoustic advantages of the coax system C-Line:

• No time shift between the acoustic centers of the individual chassis

• No run-time differences between the chassis at individual crossover points

• The membrane of the low-mid chassis forms

a wave guide for the tweeter

• The directional sound shields against un-

wanted reflections in the listening area

With the C55 Coax, the lower frequency range has

been extended again, meaning that a subwoofer has been

rendered superfluous even at louder levels. The system is

a genuine 3-way construction with separate amplifiers for

each bandwidth. With the deployment of the C5 Coax

chassis, the aforementioned advantages of the coax chassis

are preserved with more power and deeper sound. The

workload of the coax chassis is sharply reduced by an

additional active bass.

The smallest studio monitor in our

program so far, the Coax C5-Tiny has

been optimized for use in a genuine

primary field. As a point sound source

without axial offset in either horizontal

or vertical planes, the system reaches an

optimal impulse and therefore frequency

and phase characteristics in the listening

area. Utilizing high quality materials, the

speaker reaches an extraordinarily exact

music and vocal reproduction for its size.

Whether as a high-end primary field

monitor for the audio or video editing

studio or as a bridge monitor in a mixer

console – the C5-Tiny is the tool of choice.

Quickly installed, easily transportable and

extremely exact even in difficult acoustic

situations, it is a reliable and neutral

primary field monitor with adequate per-

formance reserves.

As with the C5-Tiny, the C8 Coax

exploits the advantages of its coaxial

construction. Also produced in coopera-

tion with a German chassis manufacturer,

a new coaxial chassis with outstanding

specifications has been developed. As

with all C-Line monitors, the carbon-fiber

membrane offers an optimal combination

of stiffness and minimum weight. This

material permits powerful, dry bass on

the one hand as well as a mid-range free

of distortion and partial oscillations on

the other.

Whether as a high-end primary field

speaker for the audio or video mastering

studio or as a bridge monitor in a mixer

console, or on the road in an outside

broadcast or recording van, the C8-Coax

is the uncomplicated tool for every pro-

duction.

The C88 was developed for deployment as a main

monitor. The combination of an 8” coax and 8” bass chassis

results in a main monitor with full control right down to

the lowest frequencies. With its reproduction as a point

sound source, the C88-Coax is even convincing in smaller

control rooms with lesser listening distances, providing an

extraordinarily powerful and effortless sound to the lowest

lows. At the same time, a total of 440W ensures an

impressive conversion of electrical signals into sound

performance.

Technical specifications:

For over 10 years now, KSdigital has been developing

and producing high-end reference monitors. Our

development has been based on innovation in the

electro-acoustic realm, the irradiation of sound and

not least in the area of digital signal processing.

The combination of modern digital signal processing

with 30 years experience in the construction of

loudspeakers, controller pults as well as the planning

and construction of solutions for the most complex

acoustic situations in many radio, theatrical and

festival locations (e.g. the “Reichstag”, home of

German parliament), led to the development of a

new loudspeaker generation in 1997. Several inno-

vations that were developed for our studio monitors

in the areas of electro-acoustic, sound irradiation

and digital signal processing have been patented

in the meantime.

In 1996 the ADM 2 (the predecessor of the current

ADM20), was presented to the industry as the first

monitor in the world to be equalized utilizing FIR

technology. In 2004 cylindrical wave sound radiation

was introduced into studio reference monitors for

the first time with the ADM-Zero and the later

developed Line-Master.

The ADM30 also sets the standard as a compact

and complete reference monitor with an actively

controlled bass chassis utilizing DMC technology;

a complex but very precise regulation of the

membrane’s movement in the low-mid range.
