The most important features at a glance
The SC3010
For large recording and mastering studios, film and television post-production facilities, cinema applications and in-wall installations, nothing beats our main monitors SC3010 and SC3012.
The SC3010 systems feature a very powerful amplifier array, with one amplifier per driver. All drivers, and especially our proprietary AMT RS6 tweeter, are developed to deliver high sound pressure levels, extremely low distortion and an optimized directivity. Together with the ultra-stiff plywood front plate and a special inner construction to lower resonances, they offer a smooth directivity, highly defined mids, pristine high frequencies and a powerful and tight low end.
The SC3010 systems are also built with in-wall installations in mind. In this case, simply adjust the filter controls to "inwall". A set of high-density foam is provided to close the backfiring bass ports.
The silver module housing the midrange driver and our AMT RS6 tweeter can be rotated by 90 degrees allowing you to set up the speakers either horizontally or vertically.
Even if the focus is on the sound - our monitors offer a holistic solution that is well thought out from A to Z

The smallest of the biggest
The SC3010 is the smallest of the biggest in our range of main monitors and able to reproduce the entire audible frequency range with an ultra-low level of distortion.
One 10" double coated low resonance metal diaphragm bass woofer, with a long excursion, provides for an extraordinarily clean low frequency reproduction down to 30 Hz (-3 dB) and easily reproduces all audio content, even at higher than usual SPL's.
The SC3010 also features our newly developed 5" midrange unit. Its glass fibre layered Rohacel™ sandwich diaphragm delivers a clear and detailed midrange frequency reproduction. Both the 10" SilverCone woofer and 5" SilverCone midrange are equipped with our very low distortion copper cap magnet system.
Exclusive to SC3010 – and its larger sibling SC3012 – is our large Air Motion Transformer AMT RS6. This AMT is 2.5 times bigger than the RS1, RS2 and RS3 Air Motion Transformer units, and it is a crucial part of the system as it helps to couple the middle and high frequencies with great precision. Our team was able to engineer the RS6 to set its crossover frequency at 1800 Hz, a very important frequency for human hearing and subsequently, music production.
W&W Studio
The W&W studio feature a custom wrapped pair of SC3010 and a TS110 fitting them in the spectacular all-white room.
Judge your mixes more precisely
Each driver is provided with its own separate PWM amplifier that is able to deliver a short-term output power of 250 W per tweeter and midrange channel and 800 W for the low-end driver. With a maximum output level of 114 dB (SPL @ 1 m), you will definitely be able to judge your mixes precisely, whatever their final intended output level is.
The SC3010 is a three-way system that combines powerful bass reproduction with a very transparent and present mid-range and crystal clear high frequency reproduction. Make no mistakes: whether you're producing your new hip-hop hit or mastering the contemporary works, the SC3010's will be there for you and they will tell it like it is. Bad mixes no longer have a place to hide.
As with every other EVE Audio speaker, you get both balanced XLR inputs and unbalanced RCA inputs for greater convenience.
Our tweeters base on the ribbon tweeter technology. We reinvented our own version of the AMT which our speakers are well known for.
Understanding the Air Motion Transformer
The Air Motion Transformer (AMT) is a unique driver technology, distinct from other audio drivers. It utilizes a lightweight, hand-folded diaphragm that is thinly coated with aluminum. The current of the music signal flows through these conductive strands.
The diaphragm is placed in a powerful magnetic field leading to movement in the folds caused by the Lorenz force. Due to the opposing direction of the current the walls of each single fold work against each other. The air between the folds is squeezed in and out at a ratio of 1:4, compared to the 1:1 ratio of a regular dome tweeter.
This results in higher resolution and dynamics in the tweeter section, along with a very low distortion level, allowing superior sound quality with enhanced detail and clarity.
Press and hold the control three seconds in order to put the monitor in Standby mode. The volume will decrease gradually while the LED ring lights up once around the Volume control. Afterwards, the LED on the right end will remain dimly lit and the power consumption is reduced to 1 watt.
The volume can be adjusted by turning the knob. Depending on the LED mode selected, the volume will be displayed as a dim/ bright circle or as a dim/bright point.
To put the monitor in Mute Mode, turn the Volume control counter
clockwise until you reach the minimum level. When the LED on the left
end lights up dimly the Mute Mode is activated.
Press the SMART-knob once to enter the Settings menu. Here you can set
different filters as well as the LED ring’s behavior. The LED
of the currently active function blinks. Click the different filters above to find out more about them!
The High-Shelf Filter helps you adjust frequencies above 3kHz in 0.5dB increments. You may need it in the following situations:
Distance from Speakers: High frequencies weaken as you move further from the speakers. If you sit far from the speakers, boost the high frequencies. If you're close, like in a desktop setup (about 1 meter or 3 feet away), you might need to reduce the high frequencies.
Room Acoustics: In a room with few reflective surfaces ("dead room"), boosting high frequencies can create a more balanced sound. Conversely, in a room with many reflective surfaces, reducing the high frequencies is advisable.
Adjust the High Filter accordingly and achieve the best sound quality based on your listening position.
The Mid Filter is a bell filter centered at 1kHz. It allows you to boost or cut the midrange by up to +/-3dB in 0.5dB increments. Here's what you should consider:
Frequency Balance: The midrange is crucial for balancing lower and higher mid frequencies. Use the Mid Filter to fine-tune the balance between the fundamental and harmonic frequencies in your music.
Room Acoustics: The acoustics of your room can affect how midrange frequencies are perceived. Sound energy from the monitors may reflect off surfaces like walls, floors, and ceilings, altering the sound. Adjust the Mid Filter to compensate for these reflections and achieve a balanced sound.
The Mid filter is available on SC2070, SC3070, SC4070, SC3010 and SC3012.
The desk filter allows you to boost or cut you low-mid frequencies in 0.5dB increments:
Narrow-Band EQ: Depending on the model the filter is centered between 160 and 200Hz. When turned down, it reduces the low-mid boost often caused by reflections from mixers and similar surfaces. Decrease the filter gain to lessen this effect.
EQ at 80Hz: When turned up, it enhances the lower frequencies, giving more punch to the sound.
The Low-Shelf Filter allows you to boost or attenuate frequencies below 300Hz in 0.5dB steps. Here's when to use it:
Attenuating Low Frequencies: If your room's acoustics cause a boost in low frequencies (due to room modes or speakers being close to walls), you can reduce them with the Low-Shelf Filter.
Boosting Low Frequencies: If the low frequencies are too weak, you can enhance them to achieve a balanced frequency response.
Adjust the Low-Shelf Filter accordingly to address any issues in the low frequency range caused by your room's acoustics.
The LED Mode determines how the LED ring displays the volume level. There are four available modes:
Bright Ring: All LEDs up to the selected volume level light up brightly. As the signal gets louder, he brightly lit ring extends.
Bright Point: Only the LED corresponding to the selected volume level lights up brightly. As the signal gets louder, the brightly lit point moves further up.
Dim Ring: All LEDs up to the selected volume level light up dimly. As the signal gets louder, the dimly lit ring extends. The LEDs light up brightly momentarily when you adjust the volume.
Dim Point: Only the LED corresponding to the selected volume level lights up dimly. As the signal gets louder, the dimly lit point moves further up.
In all modes, the LEDs indicate volume levels, adjusting in four steps. Intermediate steps are shown by the brightness level between two adjacent LEDs.
