From KSD Studio Monitors

The KSD C55 Reference features a dedicated 5.5” coaxial-driver and a dedicated 5.5” woofer, delivering exceptional sound performance. With maximum neutrality and minimum distortion, every sound and every impulse is reproduced precisely and musically. The featured drivers are custom made to KSD spec and proprietary to KSD. The C55 Reference radiates as a true points source and the coaxial design allows the greatest freedom in listening distance and placement, supporting both vertical and horizontal orientations.  Six parametric user EQs in the FIRTECTM processor allow perfect adaptation to the listening room and distance.

 

Left and Right units available with either Natural Cherry, Black or White front panels.
