PreSonus R80 AMT Studio Monitor (Single) - SPECIAL PRICING!
Product description
style:8" Driver
The R80’s custom 6.8-inch Air Motion Transformer (AMT) ribbon tweeter responds to the subtlest waveforms and the highest frequencies, resulting in a greater sense of “air” and “space” that is characteristic of audiophile recordings. Custom coated, woven, 8-inch Kevlar LF drivers produce a more dynamic output than conventional designs, thanks to the rigid cone’s ability to maintain a more constant dispersion pattern across its frequency response range. The result is transparent sound with narrow vertical dispersion, which reduces undesirable reflections, and broad horizontal dispersion for a wide sweet spot. Driven by a 150W Class D amplifier, the biamped R80 delivers an open, clear, and less fatiguing listening experience. Acoustic Space controls help compensate for room anomalies, and an onboard highpass filter to easily to add a subwoofer, making the R80 an ideal choice for any professional listening environment.

Accuracy Defined
The PreSonus R80 features a custom 6.8-inch Air Motion Transformer (AMT) tweeter that responds to the subtlest waveforms and the highest frequencies. This allows you to hear the 'air' and the greater sense of space that is characteristic of audiophile recordings. The R80's transparent and highly accurate sound makes it ideal for use in both commercial and home recording studios as well as broadcast and post-production environments.
The responsive nature of the R80 AMT monitor design provides lifelike sonic reproduction that will allow you to hear the room and breath in your recordings. The transparent sound and responsive transient reproduction make them an ideal solution for anyone who is mixing high-resolution audio.

Superior Transient Response
In order to dampen resonance peaks at higher frequencies, conventional dome tweeters are injected with fluid to raise their mass, sacrificing transient response time. By contrast, the custom-designed R80 AMT tweeter uses an incredibly thin, folded Kapton membrane (< 0.01-millimeter) with an inlayed aluminum circuit functioning as the voice coil, allowing the tweeter to move at the same instant as the electric current. The resulting reactive response time provides marked clarity and superior transient reproduction. |
Clean Stereo Image
Unlike a traditional 1-inch dome tweeter, which provides a mere 506 x 506-millimeter projection area, an unfolded AMT tweeter diaphragm provides 8 to 13 times the projection area so its sound coverage is much larger. For example, the 4,400 x 4,400-millimeter PreSonus R80 tweeter provides coverage equivalent to that of a 3-inch dome tweeter. This enables R80 monitors to provide a much wider stereo soundstage than traditional designs. |
Consistent Performance
The PreSonus R80 provides a wide lateral dispersion and very limited vertical dispersion. The narrow vertical dispersion helps to reduce reflections from the ceiling and desktop that can cause phase coherence issues. The broad, even horizontal dispersion creates a wide sweet spot. Because they are less subject to room-anomaly interference, the R80s react more predictably and sound more consistent from room to room. |

Transparent Sound
The PreSonus R80 utilizes an 8-inch, custom-coated, woven Kevlar low-frequency driver. This rigid cone maintains a more consistent dispersion pattern across its frequency response range. Biamped and driven by a 150W Class D amplifier—making the R80 one of the most powerful monitors in its category—these monitors deliver an open, clear, and less fatiguing listening experience. |
Have it Your Way
PreSonus R80 monitors offer user-adjustable contour features for optimizing the monitors for your mixing space. This enables full integration into any studio environment. A four-position Acoustic Space switch helps to compensate for the boundary bass boost that occurs when the monitor is placed near a wall. A high-frequency driver level control helps to further mitigate room anomalies. An onboard highpass filter makes it easy to integrate a PreSonus Temblor or other subwoofer into your monitor setup. |
Making Connections
With three different types of audio inputs, it’s easy to feed audio to R80 monitors from a mixer, an interface, a media player, or almost any other line-level source. The R80 provides balanced XLR, balanced ¼-inch TRS, and unbalanced RCA line-level inputs. |
