Introduction

As Versatile As Your Application

All studio spaces are different. As such, having the 

right connection types and customizable control over 
your acoustics is necessary. 

Adding an MR10Smk3 studio subwoofer to your system 

only adds to the experience. It not only delivers the 
chest-pounding punch critical for genres like hip-hop 
and dance, but also lets your mains focus on what they 
do best for optimum studio performance.

What’s more, two types of professional input  

connectors are provided [XLR and 1/4"] to  
interface with virtually any application you may have.

Also, the variable crossover allows you to dial in the 

perfect amount of low end for your studio.

Your studio deserves a professional monitoring system 

with the flexibility and performance to up the level of 
your music production.
