Audio engineers and producers looking for a high-quality portable set of powered studio monitors will be impressed with the reProducer Epic 5, a pair of professional studio monitors that are beautifully detailed, highly portable, great-sounding, and custom made for small spaces and uncompromised low volume listening.

Each monitor utilizes dual 150W (Peak) Class-D amplifiers to power the custom 5.25" superfast woofer and custom metal calotte tweeter with resonance chamber, which combine for a frequency response of 56 Hz to 33 kHz with an SPL of 109 dBC. The trapezoidal MDF enclosure is sealed and features a bottom-firing 6.25" coated passive radiator, which moves in opposition to the woofer to disburse its air and energy. A set of aluminum spikes raise the monitor off the flat surface to give the radiator room to breathe. The included silicone pads further isolate the monitors while providing protection to your desktop, meter bridge or speaker stands.

The rear panel features a toggle switch that selects either a +4 dB balanced XLR input or a -10 dB unbalanced RCA input, as well as a toggle for engaging standby power. A pair of trim controls are available offering ±5 dB of high and low frequency control, which helps mitigate acoustic problems within your room. The pair of monitors ship in a lightweight carrying case.
