HEDD Type 30 MK2 3-way Powered Studio Monitor
The HEDD Type 30 is the company's flagship 3-way active studio monitor, supplying no-compromise monitoring in mid- to large-sized recording and mastering studios. The Type 30 MK2 boasts an innovative 3-way design, with a dual, horizontally arranged 7-inch woofers, plus a dedicated 4-inch midrange driver and HEDD's high-definition AMT tweeter. SHARC-powered DSP delivers ruler-flat phase alignment, supplying you with incredible depth and a spacious stereo image. What's more, HEDD's CoP technology allows you to run the Type 30 MK2 in either closed- or open-port mode for either maximum low-end accuracy or maximum low-end response. You also get three Desk Filter options and two Shelving Filter options to tailor the monitor to your room, plus an Extend mode for deeper low-frequency extension. Finally, high-end, stepped aluminum potentiometers give the Type 30 MK2 a classy, luxurious feel. If you want an active studio monitor with the power, flexibility, and dynamics you need to do your job (and impress your clients), the HEDD Type 30 MK2 provides you with an option that's unbeatable.
HEDD's innovative Air Motion Transformer tweeter
We were blown away by the impeccable transient response and ultra-high-frequency extension yielded by its Air Motion Transformer (AMT) tweeter. Handmade in Berlin, this tweeter is one of the most transparent on the planet. It reproduces high frequencies in an incredibly linear manner; it doesn't distort, and it sounds unbelievably natural. If you're searching for a powered studio monitor that doesn't cause ear fatigue over long studio sessions, the Type 30 MK2 is a sure bet.
SHARC-powered HEDD Lineariser processing
The Type 30 MK2 includes fully integrated HEDD Lineariser processing. This SHARC-powered DSP solves time-related delays with a non-perceivable, short reaction of 14ms. In effect, this gives you outstanding transient reproduction and rock-solid, ultra-wide stereo imaging. What's more, you can synchronize the Type 30 MK2's phase correction with a HEDD Bass subwoofer to compensate for group delay in a satellite-sub configuration. Want to hear your mix without DSP? No problem. The Type 30 MK2's HEDD Lineariser processing can be easily disengaged.
Closed or Ported: the choice is yours
Like most studio monitors, the Type 30 MK2 is based on a ported bass system that produces a huge low-end response and impressive low-frequency extension. But, sometimes you want accurate bass rather than voluminous bass. That's why the Type 30 MK2 includes HEDD's Closed or Ported (CoP) technology. This revolutionary feature allows you to choose between two distinct sounds. For maximum accuracy, insert the included foam plug into the speaker's bass port and choose Closed mode. For high-volume, thunderous low end, remove the foam plug and select Ported mode.
