 ProDesk™ SAT 5 Active Satellite & SUB 8 Active Subwoofer

Owners Manual for 2.1 (Stereo) Applications Issue 1, rev 3

9. Technical 

Information

As mentioned in the introduction of this manual, Blue Sky International’s high 

performance to cost ratio is based on a philosophy that says that inexpensive 

products should NOT be made from “inferior” components.  This counter 

intuitive attitude means that the highest quality components and manufacturing 

techniques available are used in all aspects of the development and production 

of this reference quality monitoring system.  The specifi cations say it all, these 

speakers are not toys - they are tools.  We hope this new set of tools serves you 

for a long time and that all the components, engineering and manufacturing 

resources that have been used to make them shines through in every day use. 

This next section outlines the components, specifi cations  and  performance 

data that make this product such a uniquely high value. 

In order to continually improve all of its products Blue Sky reserves the right to 

change these specifi cations without notice.
