Barefoot Sound Footprint02 Gen2 3-Way Active Studio Monitor - Pair

The Barefoot Sound Footprint02 Gen2 is a compact, professional 3-way active studio monitor that is slightly smaller and more affordable than the original Footprint01. The Gen2 model combines the signature Barefoot Sound voicing with updated drivers, a tri-amplified 3-way architecture, SPOC analog filtering, and a redesigned cabinet. Combined with an advanced DSP engine with MEME technology and Barefoot's patented Dual-Force technology, the Footprint02 Gen2 delivers transparent sound with minimal distortion, extended bass, and precise imaging. With an impressive price-to-performance ratio, the Footprint02 Gen2 is an ideal mid-sized solution for stereo setups and immersive installations alike.

SIGNATURE BAREFOOT SOUND

Compared to other speakers in the same price point, the Footprint02 Gen2 delivers more precise imaging, unmatched balance, and tight low-end performance at all volume levels. Whether you use it in a stereo setup or a compact immersive system with a dedicated center channel, the Footprint02 Gen2 ensures your mixes translate seamlessly from the studio to consumer speakers and headphones.

UPDATED BAREFOOT DRIVERS

The Footprint02 Gen 2's drivers deliver deeper low-end extension, improved transient response, and neutral performance at high and low levels alike. The Footprint02 Gen2 features dual 6.5-inch aluminum cone woofers that utilize Barefoot's Dual-Force Technology to produce controlled bass down to 38 Hz, plus a 5-inch midrange driver and 1-inch ring radiator tweeter. Built with high magnetic flux motors and precision-extruded aluminum housings, the improved drivers sound better than ever.

TRI-AMPLIFIED 3-WAY ARCHITECTURE

The Footprint02 Gen2 uses a true tri-amped design, giving the low, mid, and high drivers their own dedicated amplification. The Class D amplifiers are deliver 200 watts to the woofers, 150 watts to the midrange driver, and 60 watts to the tweeter, with crossover points at 180 Hz and 3.7 kHz. Even at higher levels, the sound stays clear and controlled, making it easy to work with dense, dynamic mixes.

SPOC ANALOG CROSSOVER FILTERING

Equipped with Barefoot's SPOC (Spectrally Optimized Conversion) technology, the Footprint02 Gen2s uses an analog-style crossover filtering before digital conversion to improve signal-to-noise ratio, digital resolution, and transient response while minimizing latency. As for the sound, SPOC ensures a more detailed high-end and a sense of "air" that helps dial in the details of any mix.

ADVANCED DSP ENGINE WITH MULTI-EMPHASIS MONITOR EMULATION (MEME) TECHNOLOGY

Like all Barefoot monitors, the Footprint02 Gen2 features an advanced DSP engine built for clean, high-resolution sound with ultra-low latency. It also includes Barefoot’s Multi-Emphasis Monitor Emulation (MEME) technology, letting you check your mix through accurate models of familiar references like modded NS10s, classic mix cubes, plus Flat Mode and Hi-Fi Mode. With the included remote, you can switch between emulations instantly and hear how your mix might translate in the real world. Behind the scenes, the DSP manages crossovers, room presets, and driver protection

DUAL-FORCE TECHNOLOGY

Barefoot's patented Dual-Force technology delivers deep, powerful bass that punches well above its weight. Inside the signature sealed MDF enclosure, the two side-firing 6.5 in. woofers are mounted in cast aluminum frames with opposed coupling to reduce resonance and improve low-frequency clarity. This design tightens bass response and prevents cabinet-induced coloration from masking midrange detail or smearing transients, giving you controlled and musical low-end and reliable translation to subwoofers or larger speakers.

PROFESSIONAL DESIGN AND FINISH

Featuring a sealed cabinet design, machined aluminum driver baffle, tensioned bracing, and refined industrial aesthetics, the Footprint02 Gen2 looks as good as it sounds. The upgraded MDF cabinet uses stress-assembly construction, with increased internal volume and a compact design. Finished in a high-quality textured gray polyester coating and sleek industrial finish, these monitors look great in any studio.
