Main Features

●In Pursuit of High Sound Quality

The DS-30A powered monitor uses a two-way, bi-amplifier design to achieve high sound quality.

The monitor features a 120-mm LF Driver and a 25-mm soft-dome HF Driver as speakers. The amplification includes 20-watt and 10-watt amplifiers designed to achieve high sound quality.

●Analog Input

In addition to an XLR connector, which provides for

balanced input, a 1/4" TRS phone jack accommodating either balanced or unbalanced input is also provided. This assures broad-ranging connectivity.

●Digital Input

The DS-30A is provided with digital input connectors (coaxial and optical) that support 96 kHz sample rate and 24-bit digital audio.

Digitally input signals are reproduced faithfully through 24-bit D/A conversion, thus preventing noise or a drop in sound quality.

You can use the monitors with a wide variety of equipment and applications through selective use of the analog and digital settings.

●Magnetically Shielded Low- and High-Frequency Drivers

This allows you to use the speakers next to CRT displays.
