    Fulcrum Acoustic has announced a new addition to their TQ install product line called the RM Reference Monitor series. The RM22 and RM25 are a departure for the company, in that these new products weren’t intentionally developed for public consumption. “After 23 years of designing professional products within narrowly defined requirements, I decided to launch Fulcrum’s R&D effort by designing a couple of no-holds-barred, ‘how good can it sound’ loudspeakers. From that effort sprang the technologies that ultimately led to… View this story

However, any production manager can tell you the advantages of digital consoles: footprint, size, weight, repeatability, consistency and… View this story
