They tried a variety of transducers and enclosure designs, along with existing and emerging technologies. When all the dust settled, they chose to deploy an ultra-high resolution 1" dome tweeter and a long-throw 5.25" Kevlar-coned woofer

in the B1030A.

Why Kevlar?

We’re glad you asked. Kevlar has an incredible strength-to-weight ratio — that’s one reason it’s used in bulletproof vests. Kevlar gives our

LF transducer the strength to handle the extremely high energy levels required for distortion-free, chest-pounding bass. And since they have such low mass, Kevlar speaker cones also respond much more quickly than those made of paper, important for not only maintaining bass content integrity, but critical for midrange accuracy and definition. Our Kevlar transducers reproduce even the subtlest nuance of the low-frequency realm without muddying the midrange.

Power to the People

It takes quite a bit more than just a“bulletproof” woofer and a high-tech tweeter stuck inside a fancy box to make a studio monitor of this class. It also takes power — and lots of it! But even more importantly, that power has to be matched to the individual high- and low-frequency transducers. While some of our competitors are content to stick whatever speakers they have on the shelf into haphazardly designed boxes and then strap on a one-size-fits-all amplifier package, we build every single component from the ground up.

We pack 75-Watts of bi-amped technology (including a time- and phase-corrected active crossover) into every B1030A, ensuring that you have the enormous power reserves you’ll need to drive them really hard.

Designed to Work in Your Environment

The ideal environment for listening is a room that is “flat,” neither too reflective (echoes) nor too absorptive (where the sound is muffled). But since all rooms are not the same acoustically, all TRUTH monitors come equipped to function in a wide variety of situations. Switches are provided to adapt the monitor’s low- and high-frequency characteristics for optimal performance specific to your listening environment.

B1030A specifications

The Behringer B1030A is a versatile and highly regarded studio monitor that has gained recognition among audio professionals and home studio enthusiasts alike. Known for its exceptional sound quality and affordability, the B1030A is an excellent choice for those looking to achieve accurate audio reproduction in their mixing and mastering processes.

One of the standout features of the B1030A is its powerful bi-amplified design, which includes a 10-inch woofer and a high-frequency tweeter. This configuration allows for a frequency response that ranges from 40Hz to 20kHz, making it ideal for various music genres and sound applications. The built-in, high-efficiency amplifiers deliver a total power of 200 watts, ensuring that the monitors can handle dynamic music playback with ease.

The B1030A employs advanced technology to ensure optimal sound quality. One notable feature is its proprietary transducer technology, which reduces distortion and provides a wide dispersion pattern. This means that the monitors can deliver precise audio regardless of the listener's position in the room. The integrated acoustic tuning controls enable users to tailor the sound to their specific environment, allowing for adjustments in high-frequency and low-frequency response to compensate for room acoustics.

Another significant advantage of the B1030A is its rugged construction. The cabinets are built with high-density materials that minimize resonance and unwanted vibrations. This durability not only enhances the life expectancy of the monitors but also contributes to their ability to deliver clean sound. The front-firing bass port further improves low-frequency response while allowing for flexible placement in various studio configurations.

In terms of connectivity, the B1030A features multiple input options, including balanced XLR and TRS connectors, making it compatible with a wide variety of audio interfaces and mixers. Its versatile design makes it suitable for both professional studios and home recording setups.

Overall, the Behringer B1030A offers a compelling combination of performance, durability, and technological innovation. Whether you are mixing tracks, producing music, or simply enjoying your favorite tunes, the B1030A delivers exceptional audio clarity and reliability, making it a valuable addition to any audio setup.
