Tired
of floor-ceiling reflections and vertical resonant modes wreaking
havoc with your monitor response?
Now you can achieve the broadband acoustic improvement
offered by ASC TubeTraps
in your MonitorStands. This is a specially adapted set of TubeTraps
designed just for monitors. The MonitorStand has no built-in reflectors,
unless they are specifically requested. Each Stand is custom sized
to fit your studio requirements, and can be ordered with top and
bottom, or just bottom configurations.

Studio monitors are nested into a Monitor Stack,
comprised of specially built TUBETRAPS. A typical monitor on a stand
is located about half way between the floor and the ceiling. The
floor/ceiling bounce returns back to the monitor in a phase. This
imposes a phase cancel effect on the speaker’s efficiency,
typically, the first cut is 74 Hz for 8’ ceilings, then, the
engineer boosts 74 Hz in the mix unnecessarily.
The
Monitor Stack upsets the vertical symmetry in the room. The lower
Trap absorbs bass, the upper Trap is short of the ceiling and vents
bass. The combination eliminates the phase cancel effect and the
engineer works in a linear environment.
Whether part of an ASC
ATTACK Wall system or in a stand-alone configuration,
ASC MonitorStands give you more than just simple support for the
physical placement of your monitoring system.
The ASC MonitorStand dramatically improves the
monitor and room accuracy.
