Monitor Series Speakers With Orange Driver Cones! 

The new Monitor Series from Monitor Audio utilises a black C-CAM dome tweeter derived from Monitor Audio’s Bronze series. With a choice of bookshelf or floorstanding speakers, they arrive in a choice of black, white or walnut

It seems five minutes ago that the company was announcing its new Silver Series, now this new Monitor Series has hit the news services. The series includes:

MONITOR 50

The Monitor 50 is a compact speaker. The usual rectangular cabinet profile has been replaced with a square cabinet which houses the single 133mm MMP II driver and a 25mm black C-CAM tweeter.
