Roland DS90 Monitors w/Speaker Modeling
Designed to meet and surpass the expectations of the most demanding musicians and engineers, the DS-90 Powered Monitors were created with the utmost attention to detail. A custom-tuned bi-amplifier system with discrete circuitry and very high-quality components ensures truly exceptional sound quality. A specially designed 6.5-inch polypropylene woofer and a 1-inch soft dome tweeter are incorporated into a bass-reflex cabinet for powerful and accurate bass response. These speakers are driven directly by a 60-watt amp for the woofer and a 30-watt amp for the tweeter, using a fourth-order active crossover. Speaker response is adjustable via HF and LF controls on the rear of the monitor. Connections to the DS-90's include 24-bit digital inputs (optical and coaxial), as well as analog XLR and 1/4-inch TRS inputs. When the digital inputs are used in conjunction with a Roland VS or VM product, users gain access to a true all-digital audio environment-from input to effects to speakers.
