Product Description
The HEDD TYPE 40 is HEDD’s flagship active main monitor, taking over from the TYPE 30 MK2. A 3-way design with Klaus Heinz’s hand-built Air Motion Transformer (AMT) tweeter and a high-excursion woofer in a fully closed cabinet delivers high monitoring levels with a tightly focused, precise low end. 1300W of DSP-controlled amplification per side. The HEDD Lineariser (FIR-based, zero-phase) time-aligns the drivers for sharper transients and more accurate imaging. Runs solo as a full-range main in 20–30 sq m rooms, or scales with up to three TYPE 40 XTD extension modules per side. The mains are sold here as a matched L/R pair.
THE TYPE 40 SYSTEM
The TYPE 40 System is a digital, modular monitoring system built around the full-range TYPE 40 Main, an active three-way reference monitor. Developed for studios that need a compact solution that can provide more output, low-frequency reach, and listening distance than near field monitors without the size and complexity of a traditional large-format main system. By combining the TYPE 40 Main monitor with up to three XTD modules, studios can install the capacity they need today and expand later, as needed, while benefiting from a range of features including cardioid bass control, closed or ported, and time-aligned monitoring.
TIME-ALIGNED MONITORING
Onboard DSP for the TYPE 40 System means every Main monitor and XTD module is time-aligned with three available modes: 'zero phase' corrects amplitude, phase response, and time-aligns the drivers for precise transient reproduction and stereo imaging; 'flat' corrects frequency response without phase linearization; and 'off' provides the lowest possible latency for tracking and real-time performance.
