It pairs a proprietary 6.5\" low-frequency driver using a mineral-filled polypropylene cone with a highly damped linear rubber surround and a 1.5\" voice coil, with a 1\" ferrofluid-cooled silk dome tweeter, crossed over at 2.5kHz using second-order filters. The silk dome was chosen deliberately to avoid the harshness and ear fatigue associated with metal or plastic tweeters, making long mixing sessions less punishing. Alesis' SuperPort venting technology addresses the choking effect of port turbulence found in smaller near-field designs, giving solid bass transients and low-frequency extension below what comparable monitors of the era managed. Frequency range is 45Hz to 18kHz ±3dB, with a nominal impedance of 4 ohms, sensitivity of 88dB SPL at 1 watt\/1 metre and power handling of 120 watts continuous and 200 watts peak - roughly double the rating of typical near-field monitors of the period. Rear connections are 5-way binding posts accepting large diameter cable or banana plugs, and the cabinets measure 15 x 9.25 x 8.5 inches at 15lbs each, finished in a non-slip rubber textured laminate and supplied as a mirror image left\/right pair for symmetrical mounting.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Alesis","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54835494977873,"sku":null,"price":85.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0775\/6913\/0833\/files\/b474fe28-eeaa-402e-affe-c048ad8e5806.jpg?v=1788965138","url":"https:\/\/www.audiotrader.co.uk\/products\/alesis-monitor-1-studio-monitor-very-good","provider":"Audio Trader","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
