The EVE Audio SC208 Active 2-Way Midfield Studio Monitor is an ultra-wide frequency range in a compact 2-way system. The SC208 is the last in EVE’s two-way system series featuring ease of use and detailed timbre reproduction. With a larger woofer and more powerful amplifiers, the SC208 is used as a main speaker in a lot of professional and home studios. If you're looking for a capable and detailed set of above-average size monitors give this midfield monitor a try. The SMART-knob helps to simply set and save filters and volume. The bass reflex design helps for precise bass reproduction without background noise. With parameter lock, your settings are saved, even without power. With the safe fade-in, get a slow volume increase when switching on to protect ears and equipment.
Tech Talk
With the SC208, you will be able to extend your bass frequency response down to 36 Hz. The custom-made 8-inch SilverCone woofer driven by a sophisticated low-distortion copper cap magnet system with the 1.5-inch voice coil will guarantee that you will not run out of bass response when it comes to the critical listening and comparison of your mixes. The result is a very tight and dynamic bass, along with the usual greater linear excursion provided in every other EVE Audio model. The PWM amplifier, with protection limitations, can deliver a short-term output power of 150W for a maximum output level of 112 dB (SPL at 1m). So you can be sure that there will be plenty of power to make critical and precise judgments over your mixes. The SC208 also uses EVE’s proprietary AMT (Air Motion Transformer) RS2. The RS2 stands for Ribbon System 2, meaning it has a bigger front plate and a larger magnet driving the motion with the utmost efficiency. As with every other EVE Audio speaker, you get both balanced XLR inputs and unbalanced RCA inputs for greater convenience.
DSP and SMART-Knob
All EVE Audio monitors feature high-resolution DSP electronics. A high-quality analog and digital converter from BurrBrown (24bit and 192kHz) converts the analog input signal supplied via RCA or XLR. The DSP provides latency-free filtering while protecting tweeters and woofers against overload across the entire frequency range. When switched on, the volume of the monitor increases slowly to leave enough time to reduce the source volume if the input signal is too loud. Adjustments to the acoustic environment can be made via the front rotary and pressure encoder, the SMART-knob with a rotating LED ring. This knob allows the leveling of system volume as well as the adjustment of filters for room variables (low shelf, mid eq, and high shelf filters). All settings are displayed on the LED ring, providing instant information about the selected values. The brightness of the LED ring can be adjusted for dark studios or video applications. High-quality Class D amplifiers complete the system and deliver enough power to the demands of modern music production. Selected volume and filter settings can be independently fixed with DIP switches that are positioned on the rear of the amplifier to prevent unauthorized or unintentional adjustments.
Understanding the Air Motion Transformer
The Air Motion Transformer (AMT) is a unique driver technology, distinct from other audio drivers. It utilizes a lightweight, hand-folded diaphragm that is thinly coated with aluminum. The current of the music signal flows through these conductive strands. The diaphragm is placed in a powerful magnetic field leading to movement in the folds caused by the Lorenz force. Due to the opposing direction of the current the walls of each single fold work against each other. The air between the folds is squeezed in and out at a ratio of 1:4, compared to the 1:1 ratio of a regular dome tweeter.
