SC205
The SC205 Studio Monitors are a two-way system featuring Eve Audio's 5" SilverCone drivers. With an extended frequency range and an amazing output level, the SC205 can effortlessly fill your control room with impressive sound.
Threads embedded in the base plate make it possible to mount the SC205 on standard microphone or speaker stands. Threads in the rear panel allow the SC205 studio monitors to be wall mounted as well.
Tech Talk
The SC205 work with 5" SilverCone chassis, which offers an amazingly deep bass response due to its membrane in honeycomb structure. Like the slightly smaller SC204, the SC205 are also driven by a 1" voice coil. In conjunction with a low-distortion copper cap magnet system, they provided a large linear excursion of the fiberglass-reinforced diaphragm and a dynamic range that is unique - measured by the size of the speaker. In addition to the unsurpassed transparency of the audio signal, which comes from the combination of the AMT tweeter and the PWM amplifier, the SC205s amaze with powerful and precise bass response.
Eve Audo's AMT tweeter is an in-house development of existing models on the market and follows Eve's company philosophy that first-class products can only be achieved with first-class components. The accuracy and detail in the high frequency range combined with the precision in the low and midrange range recommends the SC205 as an ideal studio monitor.
DSP / SMART-KNOB
All EVE Audio monitors feature a high-resolution DSP electronics. A high-quality analog/digital converter from BurrBrown (24bit/192kHz) converts the analog input signal supplied via RCA or XLR. The DSP provides latency-free filtering while protecting tweeter and woofers against overload across the entire frequency range. When switched on, the volume of the monitor increases slowly to leave enough time to reduce the source volume if the input signal is too loud.
Adjustments to the acoustic environment can be made via the front rotary/pressure encoder, the SMART-knob with rotating LED ring. This knob allows the levelling of system volume as well as the adjustment of filters for room variables (low shelf, mid eq and high shelf filters). All settings are displayed on the LED ring, providing instant information about the selected values. The brightness of the LED ring can be adjusted for dark studios or video applications.
High-quality Class D amplifiers complete the system and deliver enough power to the demands of modern music production. Selected volume and/or filter settings can be independently fixed with DIP-switches that are positioned on the rear of the amplifier to prevent unauthorised or unintentional adjustments.
BASSREFLEX-DESIGN
The rear-facing bass reflex channel is, as usual with EVE Audio, designed for low airflow noise and enhances the powerful and precise bass reproduction.
Low frequencies propagate omnidirectionally. The radiation of low frequencies is spherical and the wavelength very large. For this reason, the differences in the position of the bass reflex channels in relation to the wall are negligible.
