Resplendent in a choice of premium quality real wood veneers and high-gloss lacquer finishes, the ravishing new RX series relies on Monitor Audio’s most prestigious science for its class-leading sound quality.Techniques and materials refined for Monitor Audio’s flagship Platinum and Gold Signature series speakers are deployed comprehensively throughout each of the seven RX designs, which combine in matching stereo and multi-channel systems to provide a dynamic audio accuracy as jaw-dropping as any you’d enjoy at more elevated price levels. Few speaker brands can match the impeccable standards of build quality that Monitor Audio apply to even their budget designs

Each design’s optimally damped and rigid acoustic architecture is wrapped in a shimmering skin of lustrous real wood or mirror-like high gloss, so that systems of two, five, seven or more Silver RX speakers will blend or contrast beautifully with any interior according to taste. For music or home theatre applications, our Silver RX speakers have the perfect mix of virtues for 21st Century HD entertainment.

A feat of ergonomic brilliance by our design team has engineered the greater poise and power of a large three-way loudspeaker into the svelte RX8. Its ultra-slim front profile conceals a deeper cabinet, which provides the volume needed for seismic levels of bass from dual 6” bass drivers. A single 6” bass/mid driver delivers naturally vibrant midrange sound, while a newly developed C-CAM® gold dome tweeter smoothly extends high frequency performance to a point way beyond the upper limit of the audible spectrum. Sheer control, open dynamics and wide bandwidth illuminate the sound of the RX8: a very big speaker disguised as a very slender one.

•New C-CAM® tweeter design with damped rear chamber, providing improved clarity and wider operating range for HD audio formats
•Dual 6” C-CAM® bass and bass/ mid-range drivers incorporate RST® technology, for better damping and improved mid-range clarity.
•New cast polymer bass chassis design for better rigidity and lower reflection properties.
•Dual Chamber Bass Reflex with Differential Tuning.

Monitor Audio is a British owned specialist in hi-fi loudspeaker design, incorporating stereo and surround sound systems as welll as a range of sonically matched installation speakers for ultra discreet high quality sound around the home and even outside.

Whatever your taste and budget, you’ll discover a Monitor Audio speaker that, with a combination of superior design and build, answers your desire for great sound. Since hi-fi was in its infancy, Monitor Audio has dedicated all their technical expertise, innovation and craftsmanship to the creation of world-class loudspeakers.

Monitor Audio has become the world’s foremost expert in developing metal dome drivers. Metal is not the easiest material to work with, which is why many of their competitors choose paper or plastic. But it does have amazing properties for more life-like sound reproduction. The C-CAM® drivers used in many of their speakers are very light, rigid and strong. These properties leave them light enough to respond to the finest musical nuance and tough enough to stay in shape while resisting the extreme bending forces of deep bass frequency reproduction.
