Samson SE8 Overview
Each Resolv SE8 Two-Way Active 8" Studio Monitor from Samson features 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.
