Description

A member of Kalis flagship Santa Monica series, the SM-5-C is unlike any other Kali studio monitor yet. This studio monitor is their first passive design and features 3-way, bi-amped architecture. It comes equipped with a 5-inch woofer and low-noise, front-facing port for deeper low-end extension. Meanwhile, a coaxial 4-inch midrange driver houses a 1-inch aluminum tweeter. Together, the midrange and tweeter deliver a crisp, clear sound with astounding imaging. There are also built-in mounting holes, enabling flexible placement in any studio including as an overhead in an immersive audio system. However you deploy this speaker, you can trust the SM-5-C to produce a complete and accurate representation of any source material.

Custom-designed drivers reveal every detail of your mix
For the SM-5-C, Kali Audio pulled out all the stops. The speaker comes loaded with three drivers: a 5-inch woofer, a 4-inch midrange, and a 1 coaxial tweeter. The flux stabilized woofer delivers deep, powerful, and distortion-free bass. From there, the 4-inch midrange and coaxial titanium tweeter deliver lifelike imaging, thanks to the midrange drivers optimized waveguide profile. Each driver is engineered to handle high SPLs with ease without sacrificing their smooth response and vanishingly low distortion. The three drivers, together with the low-noise port tube, deliver immaculate stereo imaging with a smooth response. Whether youre using them in a stereo setup or as part of an immersive audio setup, the Kali Audio SM-5-C will impress you with its clear and crisp sound.

Thoughtful touches elevate the design
Digging deeper into the SM-5-Cs design reveals several features that enhance sound quality. First, the low diffraction baffle eliminates on-axis diffraction, which results in spectacular stereo imaging. The 3-way coincident architecture features optimized crossovers for less distortion and optimal directivity. While the crossover network is optimized for bi-wire use, it performs admirably in single-wire setups. As if thats not enough, Kali also offers tuning files for LEA Connect series amplifiers to optimize the amps response to fit your system.

Mounts wherever you need it
Aside from mounting it on a speaker stand the SM-5-C comes with mounting holes. The mounting holes are located on both the bottom and top of the monitor and are laid out in a 4.25- x 2-inch bolt pattern. Its lightweight chassis and baked-in mounting possibilities make the SM-5-C the perfect choice for immersive sound setups. Kali Audio recommends mounting the SM-5-C studio monitor with a U-bracket from Triad-Orbit.
