The Dangerous Monitor SR is the companion expansion module for the Monitor ST (#H78436), adding full 5.1 capability. The Monitor SR can be configured for 7.1, 91. 10.2 and other extended surround formats. (The Monitor ST is a transparent input source switcher, speaker switcher, cue system, talkback system, headphone amplifier all controlled via remote.) Requires the Monitor ST.

Any surround recording or mastering rig should be upgraded with transparent monitoring and control. Think DAWs like: Digidesign, Apogee, Lynx, RME, Prism, Lavry, Benchmark¦ and reference monitors like: Dynaudio, Focal, Genelec, JBL, Tannoy¦

Suggested Applications
Perfect solution for home to commercial recording, post-production and mastering facilities. Bundle it with any surround recording interface, converter or monitors of choice.

Elevator Pitch
Would you drive with a bucket of paint dumped on your windshield? Why monitor with band-pass filtering circuitry? The Monitor SR (with ST) provides mastering quality, transparent 5.1 monitoring via the worlds sexiest lossless remote control. Remember: The monitor path is the single-most important element in any studio. Every decision from mic placement to mastering is made based on what level of detail this component reveals. Do not cut corners here.

What's Included:
¢ Pair of ribbon cables to link the SR and ST together
¢ 1 shielded CAT5 cable for remote link
¢ Mastering grade components
¢ External power supply, cable


The Dangerous Music Legacy:
œAudio Integrity: non-negotiable. This is the credo upon which Dangerous Music is founded. Conceived and designed by end users”not by engineers in lab coats--the results are products that resurrect dynamic range, punch, intelligibility, and emotion. These high-fidelity, uncompromised signal paths are achieved by harnessing over 20 years of Chris Muths design wizardry; creator of infamous custom black boxes for world class facilities like Hit Factory, Masterdisk, Absolute Audio, and Sterling Sound Mastering. Then the critical listening skills of golden-eared luminaries are applied, with the result being musical tools that fulfill the actual needs of todays flexible DAW-based studio.

Audio Transparency: A virgin canvas for painting sonic landscapes utilizing your own personal arsenal of plug-ins and outboard gear.

DC-Coupled: No transformers that color your sound or filter caps that smear stereo. Instead, DC coupling with massive voltage rails and Mogami point to point wiring for simple, electronic elegance. Bandwidth from DC to light.

Hand-Assembled In USA: Avoids 6,000 miles of oceanic circuit board rattling, while keeping Americans employed.

Stringent Quality Control: An exceptionally low failure rate keeps you in the studio mixing, not at the UPS store shipping repairs.

Warranty: 2 years, because its built to last a lifetime.
