TASCAM Announces VL-A Active Monitors
TASCAM has announced the VL-A Series of reference monitors, their budget lineup, which includes the VL-A4, VL-A5 and VL-A8. The 4″, 5″ and 8″ two-way reference monitors are self-powered and employ balanced TRS/XLR combination inputs.
TASCAM claims the deep-cabinet design with bass ports, front-mounted on the VL-A5 and VL-A8, extends the low end for a deeper response. High and low frequency controls on the VL-A5 and VL-A8 allow the user to tailor the monitors to their own studio. The LF-S8 subwoofer rounds out the lineup with an 8″ ported design to extend the range of the system.
