Alesis MONITOR-ONE-MK2
Passive Near-Field Studio Reference Monitors (Pair)

MONITOR-ONE-MK2

With such a successful platform to build on, Alesis' engineers wisely settled for incremental improvements designed to coax even better performance from their monitors.

They started with a new 6.5" polypropylene low-frequency driver for tighter, more accurate bass response. Then matched it with a newly redesigned, 1" pure silk-dome, high-frequency transducer for even smoother, more accurate detail and response, and a broader sound stage.

They improved the overall frequency response (changing from 45Hz-18kHz, to 45Hz-20kHz +/-3dB) and coupled it with more efficient power handling. They also provided magnetic shielding to allow use in close proximity to video and computer monitors.

Perfectionists that they are, however, Alesis' engineers didn't just settle for tinkering under the hood. The cabinet was redesigned for a new and more attractive professional finish, and are now mirror image; left/right pair for symmetrical speaker placement.

But more than just cosmetic improvements, the new Monitor One also features radiused edges for reduced edge diffraction, along with improved porting - thanks to the next-generation of the exclusive SuperPort venting technology - to eliminate the "choking" effect of smaller, shorter ports. The result is a low-frequency response which extends well below comparable near field monitors.
