Air and Space: R80 V2 Studio Monitors
AMT Design for a Wide Soundstage and Exceptional Transient Response

Clarity Above All

The R80 V2 monitors provide an unparalleled level of detail in audio reproduction. You’ll capture every nuance, from the faintest breath in a vocal performance to the delicate finger sounds on a classical guitar. Whether you’re working with brass, woodwinds, or intricate reverb tails, the R80 V2 ensures that your mixes sound pristine. With surgical precision, it allows you to identify and address problem areas in your tracks, making it ideal for mixing or mastering high-resolution audio.

Air and Transient Response

Powered by a dedicated 65-watt Class A/B amplifier, the R80 V2's custom-designed 6.8-square-inch Air Motion Transformer (AMT) delivers impeccable high-frequency reproduction. Its ultra-thin (< 0.01 mm) Kapton® membrane responds instantly to voltage changes, ensuring wave cycle-accurate transient reproduction. This means you'll experience an authentic sense of air, space, and dimensionality in your audio.

Wide Soundstage with Focused Dispersion

The AMT design provides 8 to 13 times the projection area of traditional tweeters, while the R80 V2's unique housing focuses this dispersion on the horizontal axis. This creates a wide sweet spot with reduced reflections from your desk, ceiling, and floor, minimising phase and coherence issues. The result? Consistent, reliable sound that adapts to different listening environments with ease.

Precision in the Low End

The R80 V2 features an 8-inch woofer made of custom-woven composite material, designed for consistent dispersion across its frequency range. Paired with a dedicated 75-watt Class A/B amplifier, the woofer provides deep, distortion-free bass even at high volumes, delivering non-fatiguing performance that keeps you mixing for longer.

Enhanced Versatility

Building on the legacy of the original R-series, the R80 V2 introduces more control. It features analog acoustic tuning options, including Low Cut, Mid Frequency, and High Frequency adjustments. A three-way Acoustic Space switch lets you compensate for speaker placement near walls or in corners. The new Class A/B amplifier also provides a warmer and smoother frequency response.

Comprehensive Connectivity

The R80 V2 offers the classic PreSonus monitor connectivity options, with balanced XLR, balanced ¼-inch TRS, and unbalanced RCA inputs. Whether you're connecting it to an audio interface, mixer, monitor controller, or other line-level sources, the R80 V2 fits seamlessly into any setup.

Accuracy Redefined

Designed for lifelike audio reproduction, the R80 V2 reveals the room in your recordings and offers transparency and transient precision. Whether you're mixing high-resolution audio or simply need reliable monitors, the R80 V2 ensures that every detail in your mix is clear, preventing potential trouble spots from slipping past your critical ear.
