Roland Ships Flagship DS-Series Monitors - Precision Digital Monitors for Demanding Pros


Roland

Posted 2004-09-17


Roland is proud to announce that the DS-Series Monitors are now shipping. Roland's flagship DS-8/-7/-5 active reference series delivers superb, high-resolution performance with precise imaging, ultra-low coloration, and smooth, balanced energy output. Premium-grade discrete amp circuits and film capacitors provide the purest signal path. The new DS line is ideally suited for professional and project studios, fixed and mobile broadcast facilities, or any other recording/mixing environment where superior, transparent sound quality and accuracy are essential.

Say goodbye to hums, buzzes, or cabling loss from your mixer to the speakers. The DS series offers pristine, 24-bit audio handling (up to 192 kHz) for a truly all-digital signal path. Each monitor is equipped with digital inputs (AES/EBU, coax, and optical) and analog inputs (Neutrik 1/4" /XLR), which enable connectivity to a wide range of recording and workstation environments, including Roland's VS-Series and other new-generation devices and formats.

Only the highest-grade, discrete amp circuits and film capacitors are employed in this benchmark line. The analog, digital, and power components are absolutely isolated, ensuring pure, low-noise performance. With the DS series, you'll enjoy a rich, accurate sound field with exceptional stereo imaging and a consistent "flat" frequency response.

Interference from TV, radio, and other electronic devices is a thing of the past, thanks to the newly designed shielded cabinets that allow the DS monitors to be placed in close proximity to video monitors and computer screens. The power switch is located on the front panel for optimum convenience, and the highly efficient heat-sink power amplifier is fully compatible with IEC60065 safety standards.

Treat your ears and mixes to a new breed of high-performance, world-class monitoring with Roland's flagship studio monitors - the purest and most versatile monitors to ever bear the Roland logo.
