MPN #FOLSHAPE65
Shape 65 is the reference of the Shape line. As a nearfield monitor, it enables extraordinary quality in the lowest to the highest Hz at an ideal listening distance is 3' (1 m)
Simply a must, this monitor will express its full potential from a listening distance of three feet away (1 metre).
The three monitors are all made in France and integrate five innovations to maximise acoustic transparency. Designed to meet the needs of nearfield monitoring, Shape monitors combine an ingenuous design and numerous settings optimised for the acoustics of small listening rooms.
These innovations provide remarkable acoustic transparency. These new work tools distinguish themselves through the wide and extremely precise stereo image. The bass register is articulated and controlled. The lower mid-range and mid-range benefit from extreme neutrality, and without any masking effects, making equalisation of these essential registers much easier. Finally, the new tweeter is what's at the source of the very high definition. It efficiently reveals any hissing, and it's also very precise in the very high end.

Worth the upgrade
Upgraded from the HS7 to these and I am very happy with my choice, thanks to Mario for helping me pick the best product for my needs. Flat frequency response, smooth highs, tight low-end. No need for subwoofers with these in my medium sized studio. For those of you who are on the fence because of the auto standby mode, it personally hasn't bothered me at all and know that there is a way to deactivate it.
