Product information "Fluid Audio F8S Aktiv Studio Subbass"

F8S Fluid Audio Fader Series

Designed for recording studios, gaming, home theaters and more, the Fluid Audio F8S active subwoofer delivers exceptional bass response in a compact footprint.

Many types of music benefit from bass extension - from Hip-Hop, to House, to Rock. Being able to hear your mix with this bass extension is critical to accurately creating your music. The F8S subwoofer allows you to hear every detail down to 30Hz - and in a compact size.

Mix Engineers want the confidence to know that their mixes translate well on all types of systems. That is why we included a standby footswitch. With a click of the included foot pedal, you can turn the bass on or off, and audition your mix with bass extension and without.

The F8S also has two built-in EQ settings that allow for two different settings - depending on your music: A more conventional Flat response, as well as a "Punch" setting that is perfect for Dance or other mid-bass heavy music.

For further flexibility, the F8S has a variable phase adjustment to fine tune the phase for optimal matching to your L/R monitors (0-180 degrees), a variable low pass crossover filter control (50-200Hz) and a 80Hz high pass filter (used with foot switch) for satellite connections.

Manufacturer "Fluid Audio"

Kevin Zuccaro, the founder of Fluid Audio, has a rich history in speaker design.

A loudspeaker engineer, musician, and recording enthusiast, he began his career at JBL in 1990. Cerwin-Vega and then moved to M-Audio where he played a very crucial role not only in Product Managing the category,

but developing their studio monitor line. Zuccaro was in charge of the entire monitor and microphone division

at Avid before he established Fluid Audio in 2010.

Experience designing transducers, hi-fi systems, and cinema projects earlier in his career gave him a

well-rounded approach to speaker design. Having a passion for music (making and appreciating it)

Zuccaro has always been one to believe that “technology and engineering should serve the Art”, meaning

that that the ultimate goal is a great listening experience - not using technology for technology’s sake.

This also dovetails with his general “less is more” approach and where cost can be saved, this only makes

Fluid products more accessible to the everyday musician (something he can relate to). Never one to subscribe to the “flat on-axis response uber-alles” credo, Zuccaro realized early on that while a flat response

is very important, just as important is getting the phase properly aligned between high frequency and low frequency in the crossover. This creates optimum imaging (the depth of field) and also minimizes coloration.

This is what makes speakers (and monitors specifically) compelling to listen to and more realistic to mix audio on. While there are always compromises in Engineering anything, Zuccaro stresses that making the “right compromises” is the key.
