About the Studio 1
The ProAc Studio 1 is a stand-mount, two-way passive loudspeaker originally designed for both home hi-fi and nearfield studio monitoring, typically used on quality stands for optimal performance. It presents a nominal impedance of 8 ohms and offers a frequency response of approximately 40Hz to 30kHz, with recommended amplifier power in the 30 to 150 watt range and a maximum input around 100 watts. The cabinet is a compact rectangular stand-mount design (approximately 8" wide, 9.5" deep, 16" high) offered in real wood veneer finishes consistent with ProAc's usual cherry and natural veneers. The Studio 1 has been widely used as a nearfield monitor in professional studios as well as in high-quality domestic hi-fi systems, predating the later Studio 100 and SM100 models.
