Open Box Harbinger VARI SM508 8″” Studio Monitor With 3-Voice DSP and Bluetooth Level 1

Harbinger VARI Studio SM508 nearfield monitors were designed from the ground up to solve one of the most persistent mix challenges—making sure your mix translates well across different systems. With three separate DSP voicings and the convenience of Bluetooth input, whether you’re in the middle of a production session or kicking back with some of your favorite tunes, a pair of SM508s is a great choice for your studio, or your living room.

The Perfect Mix Every Time

Job one for any studio monitor is to accurately reflect every detail in your mix. The second job is to allow you to craft a mix that delivers the impact you want on any system your audience might be listening on, from a mobile device to a home audiophile system. In many studios, this is accomplished by having multiple sets of speakers, from giant soffit-mount monitors to tiny 3″ single-driver speakers for comparison. The VARI Studio SM508 uses Harbinger’s Perfect Mix DSP to provide three different voicings—Normal, Reference and Small—that enable you to check for compatibility with every size of system, ensuring that your audience hears exactly what you want them to hear.

Engineered for Superior Sound

In order to deliver the accuracy you need, it’s important that the individual components of the monitor provide exceptional sound quality, even without the magic of Perfect Mix DSP. The SM508 starts with a custom-designed 8″ low-frequency driver and an enclosure that makes sure that what goes in is what comes out. Unlike rear-ported monitors, which are far pickier about placement and need to be kept further away from reflective surfaces like walls, VARI Studio monitors are front-ported, which expands placement possibilities while delivering superior low-frequency response. The high-frequency waveguide is designed and built to precision standards for incredible imaging with highly detailed stereo placement across the entire soundfield.
