The twotwo.8 flagship model is the largest and most accomplished of the twotwo series, employing a large 200mm (8") bass driver and a substantial ATL cabinet to create a completely unflappable midfield monitor with astounding dynamics, clarity, and depth. This model showcases the stunning precision that can be achieved with PMC's advanced DSP technology, class-leading amplification, unique ATL cabinets, and bespoke drivers. The twotwo.8 takes everything in its stride, revealing every nuance and detail of the source as a true monitor should. This is a genuinely professional monitoring tool that can be relied upon with total confidence.

From PMC – the producer of true reference loudspeaker monitors – the twotwo series combines PMC’s world-class design pedigree with sophisticated digital signal processing and active amplification to create a range of stunningly accurate, versatile, and compact two-way reference-grade monitors. The range comprises three models: the twotwo.5, twotwo.6, and twotwo.8, all designed and built in Britain using state-of-the-art technologies and components. The result is an unrivaled level of clarity, transparency, and accuracy for professional compact monitors.

Twotwo series models all share the same core design and features. The model number refers only to the approximate size (in inches) of the bass driver, with larger numbers denoting increasing cabinet volume, greater bass extension, and higher SPL capabilities. PMC’s attention to detail is evident throughout the design of the twotwo series, but a feature new to the compact range is their ability to operate in either vertical or horizontal orientations without compromising stereo imaging or tonal accuracy. This makes them ideally suited for nearfield monitoring of music and speech in situations where space is at a premium, such as in outside broadcast vehicles, small radio on-air studios, and television sound control galleries, project music studios, video editing and post-production suites, and for A&R evaluations.

True compact reference monitors with ATL™ bass loading technology boast class-leading connectivity, both analogue and digital up to 192kHz. The monitors feature cutting-edge audiophile high-efficiency dual Class-D amplification and a powerful DSP engine controlling driver response, crossover & EQ. These monitors are versatile in positioning, perfect in both vertical and horizontal orientations, and include precision drivers designed and built by PMC for dynamics and neutrality.

The twotwo series were also requested for ASCAP's (American Society of Composers, Authors & Publishers) annual songwriting event at industry veteran Miles Copeland's Chateau Marouatte. This is a testament to the trust and preference of world-class songwriters and producers who have experienced the high-quality performance of the twotwo series in a professional setting.
