The new Monitor Series is a new family of speakers from Monitor Audio. Monitor say: ‘ Their orange driver cones offer a contemporary focus to the sleek proportions and bring fun and functionality across the range’.

Utilising a Black C-CAM dome tweeter derived from Monitor Audio’s Bronze series with a choice of bookshelf or floorstanding speakers, and a centre and subwoofer, the Monitor Series delivers, say Monitor, ‘detailed audio resolution in both two-channel and multi-channel configurations’.

Monitor Series Speakers

Bookshelf

MONITOR 50

The Monitor 50 is a compact speaker designed for use in a bookshelf type environment. The usual rectangular cabinet profile has been replaced with a square cabinet which houses the single 51/2” MMP II driver and a 25 mm black C-CAM tweeter. Whilst the cabinet is rear ported, the output is well-damped and is suitable for positioning close to a wall. A single set of high-quality gold-plated binding posts provide the connections for an amplifier.

MONITOR 100

The larger Monitor 100 is a bookshelf/standmount speaker. To maintain the compact proportions, the cabinet is again rear ported. The driver size steps up to a 61/2” MMP II bass driver and is complemented by a 25 mm Black C-CAM tweeter. The Monitor 100 has two sets of binding post terminals, to facilitate bi-wiring or even a bi-amp set up.

Floorstanding

MONITOR 200

The slender Monitor 200 is the smallest floor-stander in the range. Two 51/2” MMP II drivers are housed in separate cavities and each driver has different tuning to optimise the small cabinet air load . The twin drivers operate together at bass frequencies, whilst only the top driver is crossed over to the black C-CAM tweeter higher up in frequency.

MONITOR 300 (pictured)

The Monitor 300 houses three 61/2” MMP II bass drivers: two dedicated to bass and one to mid-range frequencies. The increased driver and cabinet size are recommended for in medium to large rooms. Monitor say: ‘The Monitor 300 is a true all-rounder’.

Centre Channel and Subwoofer

MONITOR C150

The compact Monitor C150 centre is ideal for cabinets and shelves. The sealed enclosure ensures it can be positioned right up to a wall without any detrimental effects. It features twin 51/2” MMP II drivers.

MONITOR MRW-10

The powerful Monitor MRW-10 subwoofer houses a 10” long throw MMPII bass driver, capable of delivering bass down to below 30Hz. The rear ported enclosure provides optimal output from the powerful 100 W class D power amplifier. The amplifier has many features dedicated to a home theatre system. EQ settings provides a level of adjustment for room and tastes. All filters and features are controlled in the digital domain using an advanced DSP based architecture.

Finishes

The Monitor Series is available in a choice of three finishes: black, walnut or white.
