blend seamlessly into the enlarged Directiv-
ity Control Waveguide™. Surface disconti-
nuities that cause diffraction are minimized.
The curved walls of the die-cast aluminium
enclosure are thin but rigid, allowing maxi-
mum internal volume while also providing
improved EMC shielding and heat dissipa-
tion for the amplifiers. Locating the reflex
port to the back of the enclosure allows a
generously dimensioned reflex port for mini-
mal port noise and excellent bass articulation
while freeing the front baffle for an enlarged
and optimized DCW™.
The advanced DCW™ is designed to
match the performance of the drivers in
terms of both frequency response and direc-
tivity. This results in a smoother overall fre-
quency response on and off axis. In addition,
the improved directivity control causes more
direct sound and less reflected sound to be
received at the listening position, providing
improved imaging and reducing the effects of
differing control room acoustics. The DCW™
improves the drive unit sensitivity by +2 to +6
dB (depending on the particular application),
thus also increasing the available system
maximum sound pressure level.
Mounting
The 8030A offers several mounting options:
The vibration insulating Isolation Positioner/
Decoupler™ (Iso-Pod™) table stand allows
tilting the speaker for correct alignment of the
acoustic axis. The stand can be attached to
three mounting points allowing vertical and
symmetrical horizontal positioning. On the
baseofthemonitorisa3/8”UNCthreaded
hole which can accommodate a standard
microphone stand. On the rear there are
two M6x10 mm threaded holes for an Omni-
mount
®
size 20.5 bracket.
