Congratulations on your Kali Audio IN-Series Studio monitors! These monitors were designed to deliver exceptional accuracy in all sorts of recording, mixing, and production applications. The unique coincident architecture of the midrange and tweeter make the IN-Series an extraordinarily innovative system. Combining reference level accuracy, very low distortion, and wide bandwidth with a hyper-realisitic 3-D image, the IN-Series will reveal an exceptional level of detail in every mix. Features 3-Way Coincident Architecture The IN-Series features an 5-inch woofer in the IN-5, and an 8-inch woofer in the IN-8. Both have a 4-inch mid-range driver, and a 1-inch soft dome tweeter. The mid-range driver and the tweeter are coincident, meaning that they share the same acoustic center. You might have heard the terms “coaxial” or “concentric” to describe this arrangement. Those terms are technically correct as well. Because of the coincident placement of the mid-range and tweeter, and the crossover of the woofer to the mid-range IN-Series monitors act as an acoustic point source. This gives them an ideal directivity characteristic for a studio monitor. You will be able to hear a very lifelike stereo image, with details placed clearly and consistently. Off-axis lobing that is unavoidable in a 2-way system is virtually eliminated with the IN-Series monitors Substantial work was done to optimize the mid-range driver not only for its own acoustic performance, but also for its role as the waveguide for the tweeter. The shape is very precise to allow for controlled directivity at mid range to tweeter crossover, ensuring accurate summing both on- and off-axis. Excursion on the midrange is limited to less than 1mm peak to peak, so that the oscillation of the mid-range does not have a negative effect on the tweeter. Specifcations IN-5 IN-8
