Honesty
When it comes to your studio
recordings, you want honesty.
tell you that listening to a recording on
just a single set of monitors doesn’t always
paint an accurate picture of the mix.
Since people listen to music at home, in
their cars, on mp3 players, etc., it is critical
your final mix be heard on as many sizes
and types of speakers as possible.
That’s the reason we created these
smaller B1030A monitors, plus they make
ideal rear channel speakers for surround
sound applications.
Ultra-high resolution, ferrofluid-
cooled 1" dome tweeter for
ultimate sound reproduction
In fact, considering how important your
art is, you should demand it! That’s why
we designed the new B1030A Reference
Monitors to speak nothing but the TRUTH.
Oh, they still sound great hooked up to
your stereo or your video surround system,
but they were really built with the studio
in mind — where every note you play
or sing is “under the microscope.”

Built on a Legacy
For the past two years our Research
and Development team has been on a
mission to create the “perfect”studio
monitor. Since the TRUTH B2031A had
already become the industry standard,
our acoustic engineers decided to start
there and see just how far they could
push the envelope.
Our TRUTH B2030A and B2031A
Adjustable to a wide range of
acoustic conditions
monitors have been so wildly successful
that we’ve sold thousands upon thousands
of them to some of the most critical ears
on the planet — ears that demand the
neutral sound of a true reference monitor.

Non-fatiguing, Wide“Sweet Spot”
While some of our competitors’studio
monitors have a highly focused “sweet spot”
(the optimal listening position for a pair of
loudspeakers), our wave-guide is designed to
create a much more generous, broader listening
zone. That means you won’t wear a hole in
the carpet in that one spot where everything
sounds great. You are free to move around
inside the stereo image to find the ideal spot
in the mix for subtle instrument or effects
placement opportunities. You also won’t suffer
the ravages of “monitor-fatigue-syndrome,”
an ailment that comes from listening to harsh
high-mids and treble content for hours on end
— a pretty important consideration for those
all-night mix-down sessions that can really test
your nerves.

What’s Up with the RCA Connectors?
Yes, it is a bit unconventional to put RCA
sockets on a studio monitor — but why not? Now
you can connect B1030A loudspeakers to your
computer, mp3 player or television receiver for
amazing sonic performance. For a truly versatile
setup, use one of our USB audio interfaces (the
UCA222, for example) to connect to/from your
computer. This convenient setup allows you
to monitor your recording projects, and mix
and master them, directly from your computer.
And you can place these speakers right next to
your video monitor, thanks to B1030A’s internal
magnetic shielding.

Hearing is Believing
We could bore you to tears with all
the technical jargon (if you really like that HF dome tweeter, we think you’ll agree
stuff, there’s a special treat at the end),
but hearing the TRUTH will make you a
believer. From the“bulletproof”bass of its competition and own BEHRINGER!
