TYPE 30 MK2
3-Way Powerhouse with on-board Lineariser® and CoP
"With absolutely neutral timbre and the infamous high-frequencies of the AMT, the monitor meets even the highest demands."
3-Way Powerhouse with on-board Lineariser® and CoP
The TYPE 30 MK2 is HEDD’s 3-way flagship for no-compromise monitoring in mid to large recording and mastering studios.
With two horizontally arranged 7" woofers, one 4" driver for the midrange, and HEDD's very own high definition Air Motion Transformer (HEDD AMT), it offers all the power, flexibility, and dynamics you need to do your job (and impress your customers).
Working on a SHARC-DSP, the TYPE 30 MK2 is packed with HEDD newness: The onboard Lineariser® takes care of the time alignment of the different drivers, giving you better insights into the stereo image and overall staging. CoP technology lets you pick your favorite speaker mode: Eiter closed (for no compromise accuracy) or Ported if you prefer to work at higher SPL and in musical genres, where access to very low-frequency areas is a must.
And there is more: The TYPE 30 MK2 offers Desktop filters (for positioning them on a meter bridge for example) and Bass / High-frequency Shelving options to further adapt the speakers to your room. And a distinct Bass-Extension mode lets you access even lower frequency areas, adding real subwoofer feel. All these controls are accessible via stepped aluminum potentiometers.
We have the Type 30 MK2 available in both, black and white.
HEDD Air Motion Transformer
Our AMT was designed to deliver impeccable transient response and ultra-high frequency extension. This unique driver is handmade in Berlin to ensure the highest quality possible.
Our design of the Air Motion Transformer is known for transparent and linear high frequencies that do not distort the natural sound reproduction in any way.
HEDD Lineariser®
Our HEDD Lineariser® is fully integrated into the HEDD Type 30 MK2 monitors. With the phase linearity enabled we can solve time-related delays with a non-perceivable short reaction of 14ms. Effectively, this improves transients and imaging precision. For the first time, the phase correction can be synched with our HEDD BASS subwoofer range to compensate for group delay in a sat-sub system. Of course, the HEDD Lineariser® is optional and can be disengaged.
CoP: Closed or Ported
Like most monitors, the Type 30 MK2 speakers are based on a Ported base system that allows for a voluminous bass response with impressive extension. However, the same speakers can transform into a functionally new design with the flip of a switch and the use of the included plugs. The newly introduced Closed operation mode benefits from the extensive research that went into our reference monitoring system, the HEDD Tower Mains. With sealed bass ports, the Type 30 MK2 exceed expectations of bass precision and offers a new level of texture details and low-end harmonics.
