Product Description

Since 1995, Unity Audio Ltd. has been synonymous with distributing professional monitor brands. Finally, we have decided to design and manufacturer our own range of professional monitors from scratch to overcome some of the shortcomings found in most commercially available monitor systems and will deliver what true professionals expect: a brutally honest tool on which you can base the most critical decisions without a second guess or hesitation. This goal has been achieved with The Rock by assembling a team of professionals with impeccable credentials in the areas required to produce a new standard of monitoring.
 
Front baffle and cabinet by studio designer Kevin Van Green

To add density, mass and rigidity to the design, the front baffle is manufactured from Corian and then bonded to a plywood baffle. The closed cabinet design provides for a more accurate, smoother, deeper bass response made from top-grade 12mm, 9-ply Baltic Birch, rather than cheaper, commonly-used MDF. An ingenious bracing system has also been designed to stop cabinet flexing.

Superior folded ribbon tweeter

German manufacturer ELAC have designed a new folded ribbon tweeter, which features a new neodymium magnet system, giving higher efficiency, superior linear frequency and phase response along with the smoother, less fatiguing results associated with the use of ribbon tweeters.

Woofer

Again, German manufacturer ELAC have created a 180mm woofer with a 0.2mm aluminum foil that is chemically bonded to a rigid pulp fiber cone.

Custom discrete active amplification by Esoteric Audio Reasearch (EAR)

Rather than pick an off-the-shelf amplifier we have the best amplifier Guru in the business, Esoteric Audio Research designer Tim De Paravicini, who has created an amp especially for this monitor. A true 100W discrete bi-polar low-feedback amplifier with custom-wound transformers and dedicated LF & HF sections with overload/clip protection, resulting in a very fast, clean, and astoundingly accurate reproduction.
