Barefoot Sound Footprint03 3-way Powered Studio Monitors

260W Powered Studio Monitor with 6.5" Subwoofer, 3.5-inch MF Driver, 1" HF Driver, MEME Voice Emulation, and Spectrally Optimized Conversion (Pair)

The Most Versatile Footprint Yet

Footprint03, the next evolution of Barefoot Sound Footprint studio monitors, comprises a 6.5-inch, 3-way active studio monitor pair equipped with newly designed drivers and reimagined DSP. Footprint03 is also the first pair of Barefoot monitors outfitted with patented SPectrally Optimized Conversion (SPOC) technology, delivering clearer sound than ever. As the most compact Footprint monitor yet, the Footprint03 fits seamlessly into small studio spaces; it also has rear VESA mounts for smooth integration in immersive audio setups. And like all Barefoot offerings, this monitor pair retains built-in MEME (Multi Emphasis Monitor Emulation) technology, eliminating the need for multiple sets of reference monitors. Put your best foot forward with the Footprint03 and enjoy clear, accurate, and revealing sound in the most compact and affordable package yet.

Note: The Barefoot Sound MEME controller is included with your purchase. Please contact your Sweetwater Sales Engineer if you have any questions.

Updating Barefoot’s sonic signature

Barefoot Sound took a slightly different approach to speaker design when devising the Footprint03. Unlike other Barefoot monitors that leverage Dual-Force subwoofers, the Footprint03 brandishes a single front-firing 6.5-inch subwoofer and a side-firing port. And thanks to the port’s high degree of damping, the speaker delivers impressive transient response and reduced chuffing. The other drivers include a new 3.5-inch aluminum cone midrange and Barefoot’s signature 1-inch ring radiator tweeter. After listening to it ourselves, Sweetwater can confirm that the Footprint03 delivers pro-studio sound in a compact package.

Patented SPectrally Optimized Conversion

The Footprint03 is the first Barefoot monitor to feature the company’s SPOC technology. SPOC splits the high and low frequencies and runs them through separate conversion channels. The lows are attenuated to better fit the ADC (analog-to-digital converter); meanwhile, the high frequencies proceed through the processing steps at full resolution. Barefoot Sound tells Sweetwater the Footprint03’s all-new DSP and SPOC technology turn the monitor’s already sensational converter into something unattainable by any other means.

Loaded with MEME technology

With the Footprint03, you’ll never need a secondary set of reference monitors. Barefoot Sound’s MEME technology enables you to audition your mixes through spot-on models of common reference sources, such as standard consumer playback systems, vintage NS10s, and classic mix cubes. Thanks to MEME technology, you’ll no longer have to wrestle with a crowded workspace, external power amplifiers, or vintage speakers with hard-to-find replacement parts to get a tried-and-true set of alternate reference monitors.
