The Edirol MA-15D Stereo studio monitors are ideal for computer-based recording artists seeking a high-quality, powerful set of reference monitor speakers to use in a relatively confined space. The MA-15D's offer a wide range spectrum and crystal clear audio reproduction.
The MA15D's offer a built-in Bass Enhancer. The Bass Enhancer operates on psycho acoustic principles that converts low frequencies into a series of over-tones which the human ear cannot distinguish from the original low frequencies. This allows the listener to perceive bass frequencies outside of the normal range of the speaker cone, without over-driving the woofer. With the Bass Enhancer the MA-15D's offer a strong low-end in a very compact set of reference speakers. In addition the MA-15D's offer a Sub-Out port, to connect a sub for isolating very low frequencies.
The MA-15D reference monitors offer input from digital sources through either the Coaxial or Optical S/PDIF ports, supporting up to 24-bit/192kHz sources. With this, you can connect digital sources directly to your speakers, keeping an unadulterated audio signal all the way to the power amplifier in your speakers. Hear exactly what you have recorded!
Conveniently placed Volume and Tone controls are an important feature of the MA15 speakers. Adjust the volume and tone directly from the front of the speaker. While a large studio setup typically uses a mixer to control output level to the speakers, compact desktop setups can rarely afford the space a mixer requires. This is no issue with the MA-15D's. You can adjust your output Volume and Tone right on the front of the speaker.
You can also connect two different sources directly into the MA-15D's, allowing you to listen to audio from any two line-level sources. For example, you can have both your computer and your stereo connected to the MA15D. The speakers offer independent volume control for each of these inputs, effectively taking the place of a small desktop mixer for monitoring.
You can also plug headphones directly into the MA-15D monitors and mix without disturbing other people. Plugging in headphones automatically defeats the speakers, allowing you to mix without disturbing anyone, without having to disconnect anything in your setup. The Edirol MA 15D monitors are magnetically shielded for close proximity to your computer monitor, and are sold in pairs.
