Colocación del subwoofer en el estudio

Teóricamente, la posición ideal del SP-8S se encontraría entre los satélites, con el frontal hacia adelante y en el mismo plano que los frontales de los satélites. Sin embargo, las frecuencias bajas se caracterizan por su escasa direccionalidad y, por consiguiente, el subwoofer puede colocarse lejos del punto ideal descrito sin que ello afecte negativamente en la calidad de reproducción del sistema.

Las propiedades acústicas de cada sala son distintas. Experimente colocando el subwoofer en distintas ubicaciones. La posición relativa del SP-8S respecto de las paredes influye en su eficacia, del mismo modo que las características generales de la sala influyen en la respuesta en frecuencia del subwoofer. Este fenómeno puede compensarse ajustando la configuración del filtro (consulte la sección “Configuración del filtro pasa-bajo del subwoofer y del filtro pasa- alto de los satélites”).

Conexión del SP-8S y de los monitores principales

En la mayoría de los casos empleará el sistema de gestión de bajos estéreo interno del SP-8S, con el que obtendrá el máximo rendimiento del subwoofer. No obstante, existen dos modos de cablear el SP-8B y los monitores principales o altavoces satélite: 1) para uso del SP-8S con el sistema de gestión de bajos estéreo y 2) para uso sin el sistema de gestión de bajos.

SP-8S specifications

The M-Audio SP-8S is a noteworthy addition to the realm of professional studio monitors, crafted for both aspiring and experienced audio engineers. Renowned for its accuracy and detailed sound reproduction, the SP-8S is designed to enhance the critical listening experience, which is essential for mixing and mastering music.

One of the standout features of the SP-8S is its 8-inch low-frequency driver. This driver is specifically engineered to deliver deep, impactful bass response that does not compromise on clarity. The woofer utilizes a high-temperature voice coil and robust cone material, allowing for extended low-frequency performance while maintaining low distortion. Coupled with a 1-inch silk dome tweeter, the monitors ensure smooth highs that contribute to a balanced soundstage.

The SP-8S is built on advanced design principles that cater to professional applications. It employs a bi-amped design, which means that separate amplifiers power the woofer and tweeter. This separation allows for more efficient power distribution, enabling the monitor to handle higher volumes without losing fidelity. Additionally, the back panel features extensive input options including XLR and TRS connections, allowing seamless integration with various audio interfaces and mixing consoles.

Another significant characteristic of the SP-8S is its room-tuning controls. These adjustable settings enable users to optimize the monitors based on their respective studio environments, allowing for better bass control and overall sound quality. This adaptability makes the SP-8S suitable for use in both home studios and professional recording environments.

The build quality of the SP-8S also deserves mention, featuring a robust cabinet that minimizes resonance and cabinet coloration. This design consideration contributes to the monitors’ overall accuracy, which is crucial when making nuanced decisions during the mixing process.

For those looking to invest in studio monitors that accurately reproduce sound while providing flexibility in various settings, the M-Audio SP-8S stands as a reliable choice. Its combination of advanced technologies, user-friendly features, and solid build ensures that it meets the demands of today’s music production landscape, making it a valuable tool for any serious audio professional. Whether you are producing music, mixing tracks, or simply enjoying your favorite tunes, the SP-8S is engineered to deliver a stellar audio experience.
