EVENT 20/20BAS Active Studio Monitor Pair Description
Limited Time: Price reduced to $899, save $200 now!
First released in 1995, the original 20/20 nearfield studio monitor was universally acclaimed and launched the Event brand worldwide. A year later Event released a powered version, the 20/20bas, to critical acclaim from engineers, musicians and the media alike. The very first pair of 20/20bas speakers were used by Francis Buckley to mix Quincy Jones' Q's Jook Joint album for which he won the 1996 Grammy Award for Best Engineered Album.
The new 20/20bas V3 retains the character of the original EVENT 20/20 series, while incorporating massive acoustic performance advancements achieved over years of additional research. EVENT has designed and implemented an amplifier based on the topologies found in its flagship Opal monitoring system that delivers dramatically lower distortion artifacts, high dynamics and increased output.
The 20/20bas V3 has much a lower distortion floor than many other studio monitoring systems, providing higher dynamic range which is maintained as the output level is increased. This behavior is due to the incomparable “soft clipping” nature of the 20/20’s Class AB topology; audio playback is unfettered and remains unmasked by the distortion and inter-modulation artifacts produced by less sophisticated amplifier designs.

These speakers are another level. You'll hear everything you want in the same way you'll hear it on other systems. Luxurious sound and you can use them for hours and hours with pleasure. I was tired of my old, colored,and lying KRK's sounding like a box. Powerful drums, and powerful and real bass response. Goes down to 35 Hz indeed. I made even a test and the bass appeared exactly on the 35 Hz sine wave. You can even hear a little bass reaction on the 30 Hz sine wave ... So no unwelcome surprises in the low end when checking on other systems. Perfect mids and highs ! Warren from ZenProAudio loves his job and loves the people. Professional communication and quick responses. Thanks !
