Please take the trouble to complete the registration form that came with your moni-

tions please address them to your Quested representative, who will then refer back to
the designer and manufacturer if necessary. In this way, you will be assured in obtain-
ing the best possible performance and long term reliability of your system.
This manual covers the VH3208 3 way passive monitor.
Please read this manual, which we have kept as concise as possible, it really will help
you and covers important safety considerations.
The VH3208 is a 3 way passive monitor and can be used sofit mounted or free stand-
ing. They are suitable for use as main monitors in smaller control rooms or as mid field
reference monitors in larger rooms. The bass drivers are fully magnetically shielded and
a fully magnetically shielded tweeter is available as an option, although in practice this
is rarely required as the VH3208 can be used in close proximity to TV and computer
monitors in its standard form. If you require the shielded tweeter please contact your
dealer or distributor.
Typical applications include post production suites, broadcast, audio visual, project
studios, surround sound, midfield reference monitors and main monitors in small to
medium sized control rooms.
A pair of VH3208 are ideally driven by a Quested AP800 amplifier, but other amplifiers
with a power output of between 200-700 watts RMS per channel can be used.
The low frequency performance is more than adequate for most situations, but can be
further extended by combining it with the VS1115 15” sub bass to extend the
frequency response down to 20Hz. The VS1115 is also ideal when a discrete sub
channel is required for formats such as Dolby 5.1
