C88 Reference - 3-way Coaxial Main Monitor

The C88-Reference is an exceptional compact full-range main monitor that offers outstanding performance. With its unique coaxial structure, it is specifically designed for close listening distances, even as close as 3 feet. This makes it perfect for those who prefer to be in close proximity to their speakers while enjoying their audio experience.
 

One of the standout features of the C88-Reference is its two 8-inch bass drivers. These drivers confidently handle the lower octave frequencies, ensuring a rich and powerful bass response. Additionally, the carbon fiber membrane used in the construction of these drivers ensures distortion-free reproduction of higher frequencies, without adding unnecessary weight to the overall design.

In terms of the tweeter, the C88-Reference boasts our own specially designed 1-inch tweeter. This tweeter is engineered to provide exceptional neutrality and minimal distortion, resulting in a clean and accurate sound reproduction. Positioned slightly in front of the bass drivers, the tweeter’s waveguide construction optimizes sound radiation and eliminates any unwanted disturbances. This means that even at higher volumes, the movement of the bass drivers does not interfere with the projection of the treble frequencies, ensuring a seamless and balanced audio experience.

The C88-Reference has been put through rigorous testing and has emerged as the top performer in a coax monitor comparison conducted by the highly regarded trade magazine Stereoplay. It has garnered high praise from Klaus Laumann, who commends its ability to create a finely staggered image, deliver a live character, exhibit perfect timing, and offer excellent resolution. These accolades further solidify the C88-Reference as a truly exceptional main monitor that delivers unparalleled performance.

B88 Reference Subwoofer


The B88-Reference is a compact mono subwoofer designed to enhance the bass performance of the Reference series and third-party monitors.

The acoustic advantages of the B88 Reference

  • Universally applicable with high-pass outputs for active satellite speakers
  • Subwoofer in a flow-optimized steel case
  • DSP (digital signal processor) for exact crossover and equalization and delay
  • High sound power in the bottom octave (from 28 Hz)
  • Satellite outputs with suitably softened signal
  • Delay and level on the subwoofer adjustable
  • Volume and filter adjustable via KSD-RC

With its integrated digital signal processing and two power amplifiers, this subwoofer takes your existing audio system to the next level. The two 250W PWM power amplifiers work in conjunction with two high-performance eight-inch chassis, providing a controlled and powerful reproduction of deep bass frequencies. Say goodbye to unwanted roar or pumping and enjoy stress-free, detailed sound.

The B88-Reference features two XLR outputs for connecting satellite monitors, delivering a suitably softened signal above 80Hz. The built-in digital signal processor ensures a linear frequency response, while internal filters allow for fine-tuning to match your room and application. You can even adjust the delay directly on the amplifier to compensate for any spatial offset between the B88-Reference and the satellites.

Thanks to its specially designed high-performance chassis housed in a flow-optimized steel enclosure, the B88-Reference produces an extremely controlled and „dry“ bass signal, free from typical ventilation noises.

Whether you need a mono subbass extension or a third way for your stereo sound setup, the B88-Reference has got you covered. It also excels in transmitting the LFE channel in 5.1 or other 3D audio configurations. Plus, with the optional KSD remote, you can easily make adjustments to gain, phase/delay, and six parametric EQs, giving you complete control over your audio experience.
