EVE Audio SC4070 Active 4-Way Main Studio Monitor with 6.5-Inch Woofer and 32 Hz to 25 kHz Frequency

With no compromise, the TEC-Award winning EVE Audio SC4070 Active 4-Way Main Studio Monitor offers a new benchmark for versatility and clarity. It features a frequency range of 32 Hz to 25 kHz, a 6.5-Inch woofer size and 116 dB maximum sound pressure level. It delivers a new level of sound balance, precision and a surprising reproduction of bass frequencies with absolute ease. The SC4070 active studio monitor supersedes SC407 but continues to build on its predecessor, further redefining expected levels of sonic performance and accuracy for this truly world-class no-compromise monitoring system. SC4070 features an advanced tweeter or mid-range section and enhances the capability to reproduce low frequencies with two 6.5-inch woofers connected to a very powerful amplifier array. Twin woofers allow reducing distortion even on high SPL and deliver an incredible tight and homogenous bass reproduction and very linear overall response.
More than Just a Speaker
Even if the focus is on the sound the monitor offer a holistic solution that is well thought out from A to Z.
Smart-Knob
Simply set and save filters and volume.
Bass Reflex Design
This allows for precise bass reproduction without background noise.
Parameter Lock
Your settings are saved (even without power).
Safe Fade-In
A slow volume increase when switching on protects ears and equipment.
Adaptable By Design
These 4-way monitors are symmetrically designed. The eye catching central and massive silver aluminium plate is more than just an attractive design characteristic. It not only houses the midrange woofer and AMT tweeter but is rotatable to make the monitors equally suitable for vertical or horizontal positioning. Room adaption filters and volume control are accessible via SMART-knob with LED ring to indicate all settings with outmost precision. A sophisticated cabinet completes the sleek design. The beveled and ultra-stiff front plate reduces unwanted resonances and diffraction.
Tech Talk
The 4-way monitoring system SC4070 features two 6.5-inch SilverCone woofers with a specially made 1.5-inch voice coil to extend the bass frequency response down to 32Hz. Both woofers work simultaneously up to 280Hz. An especially developed 4-inch SilverCone midrange unit joins these high-quality bass drivers that endows these speakers with a greater linear excursion and clear and accurate midrange. The bass and mid woofers in the SC4070 feature the very low distortion copper cap magnet system. The combination of the unique glass fibre coated diaphragm and a very stiff but light honeycomb structure reproduces sound spectacularly detailed and clear. The proprietary Air Motion Transformer AMT RS3.1 completes SC4070. The core of those AMT tweeters is a folded membrane that works in a powerful magnetic field of a large neodymium magnet. Due to design changes like new materials, improved inner damping construction and a more efficient magnet field SC4070 delivers a higher sound pressure level with virtually no distortion even at high output levels. This AMT RS3.1 can achieve to reproduce a frequency response up to 40 kHz. Each chassis in SC4070 is fitted with its own PWM amplifier for total short-term output power of 1000 W. With a max output level of 126dB (SPL at 1m, half space, and pair) mixes can be judged precisely, whatever their intended output level is. The SC4070 combines perfectly powerful bass with very transparent midrange and crystal clear but silky-smooth high frequencies and is predestined to be the perfect work piece for mid to large size control rooms where quality and consistent power output are important variables. As with every other EVE Audio studio monitor you get both balanced XLR input and unbalanced RCA input for greater convenience.
The Air Motion Transformer
The tweeters base on the ribbon tweeter technology. The brand EVE Audio reinvented the own version of the AMT which the speakers are well known for.
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. This results in higher resolution and dynamics in the tweeter section, along with a very low distortion level, allowing superior sound quality with enhanced detail and clarity.
Powering On and Off Standby Mode
Press and hold the control three seconds in order to put the monitor in Standby mode. The volume will decrease gradually while the LED ring lights up once around the Volume control. Afterwards, the LED on the right end will remain dimly lit and the power consumption is reduced to 1 watt.
Volume
The volume can be adjusted by turning the knob. Depending on the LED mode selected, the volume will be displayed as a dim and bright circle or as a dim and bright point.
Mute
To put the monitor in Mute Mode, turn the Volume control counter clockwise until you reach the minimum level. When the LED on the left end lights up dimly the Mute Mode is activated.
Settings
Press the SMART-knob once to enter the Settings menu. Here you can set different filters as well as the LED ring's behavior. The LED of the currently active function blinks.
