Kali’s Ultimate Speaker
Kali’s founding principle is to deliver the best possible product for the price. Their speakers have always been praised for their accuracy, translation, and ease of use. The SM-Series builds on these ideals, and incorporates the best available materials, components, and manufacturing.
The result is a high performance studio monitor that is ready for the most demanding mixing and mastering applications.
With onboard processing for room calibration, each speaker can be programmed with delays, trims, and EQs to deliver accurate response in your room.
Drivers:
1-Inch Aluminum-Dome Tweeter
The SM-Series’ aluminum-dome tweeter delivers excellent dynamics, resulting in clear high frequency response without distortion. The tweeter uses a unique geometry to reduce high-Q ultrasonic resonances, eliminating harshness that can make metal tweeters fatiguing over time.
4-Inch Profile-Optimized Midrange
The SM-Series midrange is optimized not only for its own frequency band, but also for its role as the tweeter’s waveguide. The shape is precision engineered for ideal directivity, and peak-to-peak excursion is limited to under 1mm to prevent intermodulation distortion.
Flux Stabilized Woofer
The SM-Series woofer incorporates features that reduce magnetic flux modulation, bringing distortion down dramatically.
Paper is used for both the woofer and midrange cone material. Kali’s testing has shown that, despite its humble nature, paper is ideal in terms of stiffness, weight, and natural damping characteristics.*
