Event Electronics is proud to announce the re-launch of its website, focusing on the revolutionary new Opal and led by a challenge to other speaker manufacturers from Event President Peter Freedman.

President of Event Electronics, Peter Freedman, is so confident that the Opal is the most accurate, lowest distortion monitor available on the market at any price, that he has thrown down a challenge to any other speaker manufacturer to prove him wrong.

"The Event Opal is the most accurate, lowest distortion monitor on the planet, and I challenge every other manufacturer in the world to prove me wrong".

Visit this web page and watch Peter put his professional reputation on the line as he personally guarantees that the Opal is the most superior studio monitor available today, regardless of configuration or cost.

The 'Prove Me Wrong' challenge is reinforced by a series of videos on the new eventelectronics.com that explain the innovative technology that enables the Opal to offer levels of clarity and performance previously unimaginable in a two-way nearfield monitor.

After watching the videos and investigating Peter's claims, any attempt to prove him wrong can be submitted to provemewrong@eventelectronics.com.

Additionally, Opal owners can register their speakers for warranty and to receive their StudioEQ precision calibration software and microphone.

The Event Opal is now available at selected dealers worldwide.
