ESI uniK 08 Studio Monitors - Pre-order now - expected date for release April 2011, price TBC
Unlike the existing nEar series, uniK focuses on fully authentic pristine sound reproduction, utilising higher quality components throughout. Using an 8" kevlar low frequency driver and a powerful newly designed ribbon tweeter with a perfectly plain radiating surface, the 130W driven active loudspeaker shows a pristine level of sound reproduction, making uniK 08 perfect for nearfield and even midfield monitoring in stereo and surround setups.
The monitors provide a very flat frequency response, a tight low end, and of course, uniquely precise mid and high ends. Again, like the 04 and 05 models, the special mechanical design of the front panel minimizes reflections – a difference you notice right away. You have to listen to them to believe!
