Introduction
Thank you for purchasing the PreSonus®
Sceptre™ S6/S8 CoActual™ active studio
monitor. PreSonus Audio Electronics has
designed the S6 and S8 utilizing high-
grade components to ensure optimum
performance that will last a lifetime.
The S6 and S8 self-powered near-
field monitors differ in cabinet and
driver size, crossover frequency, low-
frequency extension, and maximum
sound-pressure level; all other specs are
identical. Both models are based on CoActual™ Speaker
Coherence Alignment and TQ™ Temporal Equalization
Technology from Fulcrum Acoustic. The design starts with
a horn-loaded compression tweeter mounted coaxially
at the center of a cone woofer to provide true point-
source imaging, which is generally considered to be a
superior driver configuration, especially for near-field
monitoring. Complementing the coaxial drivers is a 32-bit
floating-point DSP engine that optimizes the drivers’
performance. The result is that you hear every nuance
of your mix with astonishing clarity and coherence.
