Big, Clear Sound from a Compact Monitor!
The Event ALP 5 active nearfield monitor brings you both accuracy and a big sound that you might not expect from such a small footprint. Thanks to its time-corrected baffle design, the ALP 5 offers improved midrange clarity, and it's innovative molded bass port allows for better bottom end than most smaller speakers. Its 5.25" shielded and damped woofer and 1" shielded high-frequency driver are powered by clean, efficient 50-watt LF and 30 HF amplifiers, respectively. This monitor gives you excellent rejection of RF interference, so the ALP 5 is ideal for use with your DAW system.

Event ALP 5 Active Monitor Pair at a Glance:
  • Superb stereo imaging
  • Quality components
  • Protection

Superb stereo imaging
The molded baffle's time and phase-corrected design incorporates waveguide technology to give the ALP5 superb stereo imaging and exceptional midrange clarity. The large diameter low-air-restriction bass port (above) helps the ALP5 deliver maximum low frequency response.

Quality components
The ALP 5's low frequency driver features a 5.25" magnetically shielded mineral-filled polypropylene cone with high temperature voice coil and damped rubber surround. The 1" magnetically shielded high-frequency driver incorporates a soft
dome neodymium radiator with a ferrofluid-cooled voice coil. These quality components, along with a 50-watt LF amplifier and 30-watt HF amp and 2.6kHz active crossover, make the ALP 5 both accurate and big-sounding.

Protection
Event made sure to build some peace of mind into the ALP 5. You get effective shielding against RF interference (perfect for desktop DAW use with a CRT monitor), output current limiting, and protections against over-temperature and transient spikes.

Event ALP 5 Active Monitor Pair Features:
  • Low-frequency driver: 5.25" magnetically shielded mineral-filled polypropylene cone with high temperature voice coil and damped rubber surround

“Hello all,
I wrote a review and i keep to it. Its been 3 months on these babies and my mixes just keep getting better. Im mixing Ska, reggae, pop vocalists and even death metal. No doubt , you must get to know these speakers like every other speaker. Very much in the style of ns-10s.
Also i read a review that said that they didnt have 1/4" inputs and that isnt true.I have them...” Read More

Sweetwater Expert Advice
 
  "The ALP5 are great sounding monitors for those who do not want to sacrifice quality on a budget. They are very accurate for the price and my customers have been thrilled with their performance."
Dan VanAmerongen

  "All of Event's monitor design experience culminated in the ALP 5 speakers. If you're loking for something fancy, this is not the box or you. It is, however, a great small speaker that's fun to mix with and translates easily to other systems."
Art Hill

  "I'm impressed; very impressed. Event focuses solely on quality, accurate monitoring, and the ALP5s have brought their reputation to the budget studio. I have yet to hear a set of monitors that can play loud and remain accurate. For the home/project studio, the ALP5's deserve serious consideration."
Mark Brody
