The TYPE 30 MK2 (White finish) is positioned as a monitoring solution for medium to large studios, where dynamic headroom, precision across the entire frequency range, and comfortable listening over long sessions are expected. Designed and manufactured in Germany, it stands as a reference speaker capable of handling dense mixes, mastering sessions, or more ambitious immersive environments, while maintaining a very "readable" signature.
This monitoring speaker is aimed at sound engineers, producers, and commercial studios that need to make reliable decisions on spectral balance, depth, and mix translation. Its ability to remain clean at high levels makes it particularly relevant in control rooms with a more distant listening position or to impress clients during "full range" listening sessions without losing detail finesse. It is also suitable for immersive setups (such as Atmos) thanks to separately available mounting options.
The TYPE 30 MK2 features a 32-bit SHARC DSP and the HEDD Lineariser, a zero-phase filter designed to improve temporal coherence. The result: a more stable stereo scene, sharper transients, and easier reading of reverbs, delays, and subtle dynamic variations.
In Closed mode, the speaker favors very controlled listening, particularly useful for judging low-mid articulation and kick/bass precision. In Ported mode, you gain bass presence and extension, practical for validating the foundation of a mix without changing systems.
To adapt the response to the room, the TYPE 30 MK2 offers a Desktop filter (reduces reflections related to furniture), Hi/Low shelving filters, and a Bass-extension mode to increase the low end by up to 20%. It can also integrate into a Satellite-Subwoofer system in linear phase with the BASS 08 subwoofers. Finally, the speaker benefits from continuous feature support via the HEDD Access tool (downloadable separately).
