The front baffle has a beautiful glossy surface finish. Four color variations are available: Jet Black, Navy Blue, Mustard Yellow, and Bordeaux. The color variations include Jet Black, Navy Blue, Mustard Yellow, and Bordeaux, which can be selected to match the connected devices and the interior design.

About the color variations
JET BLACK: Jet black. JET BLACK: Jet black, as if ink had been poured on the surface.
NAVY BLUE] Dark blue. A deep, dark blue.

MUSTARD YELLOW] A warm yellow like mustard.
BORDEAUX] A deep reddish purple color like wine.

The woofer (for bass) and tweeter (for treble) are 2-way configurations, with an emphasis on quality.

A 7.5cm-diameter glass-fiber diaphragm woofer and a 1.9cm-diameter silk-dome tweeter are used to achieve clear sound quality.
This compact active speaker system consists of a set of left and right speakers. The active speaker side (right side) is connected to the passive speaker side (left side) with the supplied speaker cable (1.5m).
The woofer is equipped with an up-rolled rubber edge that produces a powerful sound.
Wooden enclosure for natural sound. The rear bass-reflex system delivers heavy bass in a compact body.
The active speaker (right side) incorporates a high-efficiency 15W+15W digital amplifier, and various inputs and volume controls are integrated to enhance operability.
Both RCA pin and stereo mini input terminals are provided for connection to a wide range of devices such as PCs, TVs, and portable players (stereo mini cable <0.8m> included).
The speakers can be used as audio monitors for DTM and DJ, as active speakers for PC audio, for powerful TV viewing, and for easy, high-quality music playback through connection to various portable players and smartphones.
By attaching the included foot (rubber foot for angle adjustment) to the bottom of the PA-3 and tilting it, the PA-3 can be installed in various ways according to the usage scenario.

A buzzing sound is generated when the power is turned on and off, but this is not a malfunction.

This compact active subwoofer has a height of 18.5 cm, the same as the PA-3, and a width of 20 cm, the width of one pair of the PA-3.
The compact body incorporates a variety of technologies to achieve powerful bass while matching the size of the PA-3.
(1) The speaker diaphragm is made of a heavy, rigid glass fiber material with a large mesh mesh, which allows for high output reproduction of solid heavy bass sound even in a compact body.
(2) The center cap is also made of the same high-rigidity glass fiber material as the diaphragm, and its φ64mm concave shape ensures that it will not collapse under the large amplitude of the subwoofer.
(3) The enclosure is sealed to achieve both a compact body and speedy bass. Furthermore, the front baffle has a corner wood structure to firmly support the speaker section, enabling reproduction of realistic low frequencies.
(4) A four-layer voice coil, which is heavier than the usual two-layer voice coil, is used. This optimizes low-frequency reproduction by controlling sound pressure in the mid- and high-frequency range.
The compact body is generously equipped with a high-efficiency 50W high-power digital amplifier. The power supply is built into the main unit, eliminating the need for an AC adapter, which tends to get in the way during installation.
The amplifier is equipped with a FREQUENCY knob for adjusting the crossover frequency (60 to 150 Hz) and a phase switch for inverting the phase, allowing adjustment according to the main speakers connected and the listening environment, such as PM0.3 and PM0.1.
The RCA through jacks are equipped to output the input signal to the main speakers even when the power switch is turned off, allowing listening with the PA-3 alone.
If there is no signal input for about 15 minutes, the auto-standby function operates to suppress power consumption to 0.5W or less, and returns to normal operation when signal is input again (with ON/OFF switch).
The PC-1e(B) volume controller is included as standard equipment, enabling direct and quick volume control with the dedicated hardware, unlike complicated volume control with a mouse or keyboard when connected to a PC.

Allows you to control the volume of the speakers all at once at your fingertips. Improves usability when listening to music or watching DVDs on a PC or other device.

The metal body is made of a solid metal material. The knob is machined from aluminum and has a moderate weight to fit comfortably in the hand.

The small size does not get in the way on the desktop.

Passive type, which does not require a power supply for easy use.
