Samson SE8 Overview
EachResolv SE8 Two-Way Active 8" Studio MonitorfromSamsonfeatures 100 watts of power, a dedicated power amp and an electronic crossover. The 8" woven carbon-fiber woofer provides tight and controlled low-frequency response, while its 1.25" soft dome tweeter gives the high frequencies a natural sound without unwanted resonance. The Resolv SE8 also includes a 4-position high-frequency lift control, allowing the monitor to be optimized for different mixing environments.
This Resolv's enclosure is constructed of solid MDF. Inset into the panel is a time-aligned waveguide that allows for a wide listening area with minimum diffraction. The SE8 is AV shielded for seamless operation near CRT monitors and other sensitive electronics. The rear panel has balanced XLR and 1/4" TRS jacks, as well as an unbalanced RCA input. Additionally, the front ports are slotted with rounded inner edges, helping reduce port noise at high SPLs.
Three Types of Inputs
The Samson Resolv SE8 has balanced XLR and 1/4" TRS inputs, allowing connection to professional-grade equipment. It also has an unbalanced RCA input, in case you'd like to plug in a turntable or iPod.
