Barefoot Sound is proud to announce that the Footprint® 03C tri‑amplified, 3‑way monitor has been selected as a finalist in the Studio Monitors category of the TEC Awards.
The TEC Awards, hosted annually by NAMM, are among the most respected accolades in the audio world. They honour excellence in product innovation, design, and technical achievement across music, film, television, live events, and beyond.
Why the Footprint03C Stands Out
Flexible stereo or center‑channel use — the 03C can act as a center speaker alongside a pair of Footprint 03s, or be deployed as a matched left/right pair itself.
Advanced tri‑amplified 3‑way design — it uses a 1″ ring radiator tweeter, a 3.5″ aluminum midrange, and dual 6.5″ forward‑facing woofers.
Precision engineering — features such as enhanced magnet/motor systems, copper shorting rings, and improved heat sinks help reduce distortion, extend driver excursion, and preserve performance under demanding use.
Sealed‑box architecture — ensures tight low‑end control and accurate reproduction even in smaller rooms.
