Manufacturer's description

Introducing the latest technological innovation from Event Electronics: the ALP 5 a time and phase-corrected biamplified monitor that redefines excellence in small footprint studio reference systems.

Event's engineers have spent years designing transducers, studio electronics, and high performance studio monitoring systems—including some of the most popular professional speakers used today. Now, using the latest digital acoustic design tools and high performance driver and power amplifier technology, they’ve developed the Active Linear Phase 5, the new standard for performance and value in biamplified direct field monitors.

The ALP 5 features the time-proven mineral-impregnated 5.25" low frequency driver that’s been at the heart of "small footprint" Event monitor systems from the start, including the Tria™, the Project Studio 5™, and most recently, the Tuned Reference 5™. The unit’s high frequency driver is a direct descendant of the one used in the critically acclaimed Studio Precision series. But the real magic comes in the sonic combination of these two custom-designed components, courtesy of the ALP5 front panel baffle. The seemingly simply baffle is actually a rather cleverly engineered design that creates an elliptical wave guide for the high frequency driver while at the same time aligning the phase and time relationships of the low and high frequency driver components. The result is a monitor that provides significantly greater imaging accuracy and a wider sweet spot than those using traditional designs.

So if you thought pro monitors were beyond your reach; if you thought that getting on the same playing field as Grammy winning multi-platinum producers and engineers was just a pipedream; if you thought you had to settle for Brand X just because your buddy did, think again:

ALP5 has arrived.
