Recording Magazine Writes: "I was hearing<br />
spatial information <strong>and</strong> <strong>mid</strong>range details that had<br />
previously escaped notice. Ambiences came across with<br />
stunning realism <strong>and</strong> a 3-dimensional vision that<br />
conveyed actual or synthesized soundstages with<br />
unmistakable clarity. Imaging, especially front-to-back<br />
placement, was more stable <strong>and</strong> vivid than any monitor<br />
remotely <strong>near</strong> this price I have ever heard. In short, these<br />
<strong>Truth</strong> <strong>Audio</strong> TA-1P monitors sound fantastic." REVIEW<br />

"Although I have produced many great<br />
records the <strong>Truth</strong> TA-1Ps reminded me<br />
of many flaws in my mixes that could<br />
have been perfected only if I had a pair of<br />
these when I worked on these projects.<br />
This could be a project saving tool for all<br />
studios to own."<br />

<strong>Audio</strong> Media Writes: Bass: Warm <strong>and</strong> well<br />
balanced: even in the extreme lows the bottom was well<br />
balanced Kick Drum: Meaty <strong>and</strong> well defined: there was a<br />
nice punch to the transient peak <strong>and</strong> the ‘point’ was well<br />
defined. Snare: Snappy <strong>and</strong> in your face: the TA-1Ps<br />
shine on transients. Crunch Guitar: Great! The <strong>mid</strong>-range<br />
details I spoke of above are in evidence here. Even with a<br />
lot of guitar-cabinet speaker compression, the individual<br />
detail sounded great on clean guitars. Acoustic Guitars:<br />
Nice highs <strong>and</strong> good detail. Vocal: Airy with good balance<br />
<strong>and</strong> detail. Drums: Very good; the lower toms could be<br />
tubby but not on every example. Synth Pads: Lush with good air. Percussion:<br />
Good transients <strong>and</strong> definition. Cymbals: Nice airy details <strong>and</strong> transients.<br />

Michael Deni Responds About his <strong>Truth</strong> Monitors<br />
"Hi Shannon, Happy Holidays. I have had the TA-1Ps for a couple days now.<br />
I've logged about 5 hours on them so far. I have been reluctant to review them<br />
to the other Studio Owner/Engineers I am affiliated with simply because I want<br />
to add credibility to when I tell them how these things <strong>Truth</strong>-fully kick ass. Up<br />
until now I have been lied to or brutalized by every <strong>near</strong><strong>field</strong> monitor I have<br />
worked with. A wise man once said, "The <strong>Truth</strong> will set you free." :) As I keep<br />
logging time on these it is as if I am waiting to reveal a flaw or a compensation<br />
point. I still can't rule out finding something like that simply because I haven't<br />
used them in enough situations, but so far the have exceeded my<br />

expectations. One thing really nice to me is now having the ability to detect low<br />
frequency rumble or to run accurate High-pass filters. I presently do not mix<br />
with a sub-woofer. My mixes always made trips back to the board after hearing<br />
them on 5.1/7.1 systems. After my preliminary translation tests, I am predicting<br />
hours of time saved simply because how well the TA-1Ps translate. I will add<br />
that just because a NF monitor is accurate doesn't mean they won't make you<br />
jump out of a window if you listen to them too long. Usually the trade off for a<br />
warm sound is a hyped speaker. Not with the <strong>Truth</strong>. I look forward to your<br />
success." Michael Deni /Deni Digital<br />

"I have never heard this much low end generated by<br />
a <strong>near</strong><strong>field</strong>. I visited your booth four times during the<br />
NAAM Show <strong>and</strong> brought someone back with to hear<br />
these things every time. The lows are balanced<br />
perfectly with the <strong>mid</strong>s <strong>and</strong> highs <strong>and</strong> the cabinets<br />
are very non-fatiguing. I don’t know how you did it but<br />
these things sound incredible."<br />

to hear if the mix that you just did in your million<br />
dollar recording studio is truly GREAT. The TA-1P's<br />
make accuracy in mixing a reality. (nice slogan, huh)<br />
I'm also using a Hafler Transnova 9505 power amp. I'll be switching over to a<br />
Krell 300 soon. If you have another suggestion, I'd like to know. Thanks. By<br />
the way, check out Destiny's Child newest album, Survivor. I have one song,<br />
Independent Woman, <strong>and</strong> a few recording credits. All tracked on my TA-1P's!"<br />

"Out performs any initial expectations.<br />
The TA-1P Close Field blows me away.<br />
Blind folded I would swear these were<br />
dual 8-inch drivers. <strong>Truth</strong> has something<br />
going on with these speakers. Every time<br />
I listen to them I get something from them<br />
that I don’t seem to get from anything<br />
else. Everything I left with from my<br />
sessions translated perfectly!"<br />

Review By Rob Shrock<br />
“Considering that that I can work long hours as well as<br />
create good mixes on the <strong>Truth</strong> <strong>Audio</strong> TA-1Ps, I consider<br />
these monitors to be both an asset <strong>and</strong> a bargain.<br />
Although I believe in multiple monitoring setups for critical<br />
mixing, I would have no problem working with the TA-1Ps<br />
alone. The designers have hit their mark: the TA-1Ps<br />
reveal the truth in your mixes without tiring your ears in<br />
the process.” [Complete Review]<br />
PC RECORDING.COM<br />
"When I first listened to the TA-1Ps, I was instantly hit with<br />
details I had not heard before, particularly in the vocal <strong>and</strong><br />
acoustic guitar ranges. Mind you, some of the details<br />
showed some errors I had made on my guitar but I was pleased to hear them<br />
before final mixdown. The<br />
TA-1Ps are strongest in the <strong>mid</strong>-range with very clear <strong>and</strong> precise imaging <strong>and</strong><br />
defined discrete separation of different instruments in the recording."<br />
