Frequently Asked Questions
Bluetooth 5.0 offers noticeably lower latency than older versions, making it suitable for basic monitoring, but serious tracking still benefits from wired connections.
While the 5.25” woofer performs well, the bass extension isn’t as deep as larger monitors; sub-bass frequencies will be less impactful.
The +/- 6dB EQ adjustments are subtle; they allow for minor corrections but won't fundamentally change the monitor's character.
