Barefoot Sound Footprint 03 – Pair
Barefoot Sound Footprint 03 – Pair is a pair of active studio monitors with a 6.5-inch low-frequency driver with an aluminum diaphragm, triple Class D amplification totaling 260W, proprietary SPOC and MEME technologies.
The three-way studio monitor with three amplifiers, Footprint 03, maintains the exceptional sound quality and design features of its predecessors, Footprint 01 and Footprint 02, but with more compact dimensions and an affordable price.
Unlike traditional sealed enclosures, the Footprint 03 utilizes a phasor inverter, providing superior fast-phase-inverted HF/MF sound while maintaining Barefoot's signature enclosure design standards. The polyethylene coating "Footprint Gray," special assembly methods, and the substantial weight of the enclosure contribute to stability and damping, eliminating vibrations for unparalleled listening quality.
At the core of the Footprint 03 innovations are a 1-inch ribbon tweeter, a 3.5-inch MF driver with an aluminum cone, and a front-facing 6.5-inch LF driver with an aluminum cone. All drivers are carefully designed to enhance sound quality. Advanced magnetic systems, copper damping rings, and improved heat dissipation ensure minimal distortion, increased excursion, and reliability even with prolonged use.
New technologies such as SPOC (Spectral Optimized Conversion) and an innovative digital signal processor enhance resolution, reduce latency, and optimize frequency characteristics. The MEME technology seamlessly integrates Footprint 03 into various applications, making this compact model a powerful tool for studio monitoring.
