CIRCLE 5

Midfield Monitors

As part of a complete monitoring system, HHB Circle 5 studio monitors will deliver the clean, highly accurate sound required. Their reliable sound output and wide flat frequency response makes them suitable for the highest quality audio monitoring applications. The Circle 5s feature a solid state Polyswitch® to protect the tweeter from excessive input. Unlike other protection circuits which limit power to the tweeter, affecting the overall balance of the sound in a way which may not be immediately obvious to the listener, the Polyswitch® in the Circle 5 cuts all power to the tweeter and illuminates a red warning LED. After a couple of minutes to cool off, the switch automatically resets, having saved the tweeter from overload and subsequent damage.
