Developed to give you the optimal nearfield listening the compact Nord Piano Monitor system lets you experience the true character of our renowned piano sounds with impressive depth and dynamics – a natural extension of our instruments. The NORD PIANOMONITORV2 are made by Audio Pro for Nord. The red, powered speakers can be directly mounted to the Nord Piano 4, Nord Grand, and Nord Stage 3 Rev B by using optional Monitor Brackets. Additionally, these same brackets can be used to mount the speakers to microphone stands. The left speaker houses most of the electronics: this is where you connect the single power cord and the L/R input from the keyboard. There is a speaker out jack that connects to the right speaker (not unlike many computer speaker systems). The left speaker also has a power switch, a standby switch, a sub out RCA jack, and an additional 1/8-inch Auxiliary In jack to connect an additional source (such as an iPad). There is also an Aux Volume knob for easy mixing. Surprisingly, these monitors pack 80W each, so you should be able to hear yourself quite well! Each monitor speaker houses a ¾-inch tweeter and a 4½-inch woofer.
