07 PROTECTION / LIMITERS
Protection / Limiters
Peak Limiter
The Low and High frequency channels have individual
Peak Limiters designed to protect each driver from high
amplitude, short duration audio input signal spikes that
might cause damage due to over excursion of the voice
coil. These limiters are implemented digitally within the
DSP in such a manner that they have zero effect on the
audio signal below their thresholds. The front LED indica-
tor light will flash RED when a Peak Limiter on any of the
driver channels is triggered. The duration of such events
is only a fraction of a second. Therefore, the LED flash
may appear pink or orange as the eye naturally blends
the normally aqua-blue color of the LED with the red.
RMS Limiter
The Low and High frequency channels have indi-
vidual RMS Limiters designed to protect each driver
from long duration, high amplitude audio input sig-
nals that might cause thermal damage due to the voice
coil. These limiters are implemented digitally with-
in the DSP in such a manner that they have zero ef-
fect on the audio signal below their thresholds. The
front LED indicator light will flash RED when an RMS
Limiter on any of the driver channels is triggered.
Caution: Signals large enough to trigger any of the
limiters can generate very high sound pressure levels
that may result in permanent hearing damage.
Over Current
In the event of a large audio input signal that might dam-
age the amplifiers or power supply due to current over-
load, the power supply is designed to enter into Over Cur-
rent protect mode. This state typically results from a large,
broadband input signal burst that flat lines the limiters on
all four channels simultaneously. While the fault persists
the amplifier power rails shut down, the speaker goes qui-
et, and the front panel LED turns red. Once the audio input
signal is turned down the speaker should reboot within a
few seconds. If the speaker fails to reboot or the LED light
goes out completely, dis-connect the audio input cable
and power cycle the speaker. Verify the signal level is at-
tenuated be-fore reconnecting audio input cable.
Caution: Signals that cause Over Current protection
to trigger can generate very high sound pressure levels
that may result in permanent hearing damage.

08 SIGNAL FLOW DIAGRAM
Signal Flow Diagram

The acoustic center of the Footprint03 is located at the
LED indicator just above the tweeter. The Footprint03 is
designed to work equally well as a nearfield or mid-field
monitor. The minimum recommended listening distance
is 3.0 feet (91 cm). This provides enough distance so the
sound waves from the individual drivers can coalesce and
the speaker sounds like a single source. While speaker
positioning can often be dependent on the nature of the
room, a good starting point is to create an equilater-
al triangle between the two speakers and the listening
position. The speakers should be angled inward, so the
tweeter axes aim towards the listener’s ears, crossing a
few inches behind the head.
Posititioning
09 POSITIONING
A “typical” placement scenario might have the speak-
ers positioned 1.5 feet (46 cm) from the front wall, the
LEDs at ear level and the speakers and listening position
forming an equilateral triangle with 4.0 feet (120 cm)
sides. However, every room has its unique characteristics.
Therefore, the optimal listening distances, speaker height
and distances from walls are matters for experimentation.
The Footprint03 is well equipped to work at a variety of
listening distances.

10 POSITIONING
We generally recommend angling the speaker axes in
towards the listening position to create an equilateral
triangle as described above. This yields the most accurate
high frequency response and the sharpest stereo image
at the center listening position. In some cases, however,
the listener might change positions frequently. Or there
might be multiple listeners. In such situations it may be
desirable to have a wider and less focused stereo field
which provides better coverage over a range of listening
positions. This can be achieved by aiming the speaker axes
more forward such that the axes cross further behind the
center listening position. The figure below illustrates the
general principle and is not meant to be an exact measure
of speaker angles or optimal listening positions.
Since the Footprint03 has such wide off-axis disper-
sion, the horizontal angle relative to the listener can be
changed by up to 10 degrees with less than 1 dB variance
Widening the Stereo Field
While the amplifier modules that drive the Footprint03
are very efficient, the speaker still generates a signifi-
cant amount of heat that must be dissipated. This heat is
transmitted to the air via convection from the rear ampli-
fier plate. In order to ensure proper airflow, a minimum
of 2.0 inches (51 mm) clearance should be maintained
between the speaker and any large obstructions like
walls. An ambient room temperature below 30°C (85°F)
should be maintained. Over-temperature may cause the
speaker to overheat and shut down.
Cooling
in the frequency response across the audible spectrum.
Angling the speakers forward in this manner will somewhat
defocus the center stereo image while providing generally
better imaging over a range of listening positions. For some
users this may be an acceptable compromise.

MEME™ (Multi Emphasis Monitor Emulation)
Barefoot MEME (pronounced “meam” like “team”)
technology allows you to box up your secondary
reference monitors for good. Despite the numerous
advantages of high-resolution monitors like the Foot-
print01, many engineers still rely on their NS10s and
mix cubes as secondary references. These speakers have
long traditions and people find them familiar and useful
for focusing in on certain aspects of their mix. However,

HI-FI
While it does not emulate any one speaker in particular,
this setting is indicative of “hi-fi” in the colloquial sense
of the term. The midrange is a bit scooped and highs are
a little accentuated. The bass response is altered to have
less damping, yielding a hybrid character somewhere be-

it’s also a fact that crowding your console with those
extra boxes degrades the sound field of the primary

runs, and consume more studio space. MEME offers an
elegant solution by emulating the sound and transla-
tion characteristics of those other classic monitors.

and the slower, fatter sound of a ported speaker. The re-
sult is a sweeter more forgiving sonic character.

MEME Voices:
MEME™ Voice Selector Connection:
The MEME Voice Selector switch box is connected to
the MEME IN jack of the speaker via any standard 3.5
mm stereo phone cable. The switchbox is passive and
requires no batteries. Two or more speakers can be
connected to the switch box by daisy chaining cables
from the MEME OUT of one speaker to the MEME IN
of the next speaker. The Footprint03 MEME IN and
MEME OUT jacks are opto-isolated to prevent ground
loops between devices.
Barefoot MicroMain Gen2 series monitors with
MEME can also be connected to the MEME OUT of
the Footprint line.
Example: 5 channel MEME™ Voice control layout.

SpOC™ (Spectrally Optimized Conversion)
SpOC (Spectrally Optimized Conversion) is introduced to the audio world through the Footprint03. The
Barefoot Sound patented technology incorporates an analog crossover section prior to the analog-to-digital
conversion, allowing us to pass the high frequencies into the converter unattenuated. This yields 5-bit higher
resolution or a 15 dB signal-to-noise ratio. Exclusive to monitors featuring SpOC, this technology achieves a
more transparent signal not found in any other monitor in its class.
12 TECHNOLOGY
The Barefoot Sound Digital Signal Processor (DSP) is introduced in
the Footprint03 - a pivotal advancement that revolutionizes the audio
performance of Barefoot speakers. At the heart of this cutting-edge
technology, DSPs play a critical role in enhancing and optimizing audio
signals, elevating the listening experience to unparalleled heights. With
a remarkable reduction in latency, from 10ms down to an impressive 3ms,
this DSP ensures a near-instantaneous response, eliminating any per-
ceptible delay for seamless audio reproduction. By optimizing the drive
level, the DSP enhances the low-end frequency response, delivering
deeper and more impactful bass. Additionally, distortion is significant-
ly reduced, allowing for enhanced clarity and sonic accuracy, enabling
audiophiles and professionals alike to experience every nuance of the
sound with pristine detail.
Digital Signal Processor (DSP)
The Footprint03 features three Class D amplifier modules, each dedicated to powering a specific driver. The
tweeter channel is driven by a 60-watt amplifier, while the midrange and woofer drivers are supported by
separate 100-watt amplifiers. The amplifiers have a total harmonic distortion (THD) rating of less than 0.005%
when delivering the maximum power to each driver. This configuration ensures a well-balanced and powerful
audio performance, with each driver receiving the appropriate signal level for optimal sound reproduction.
