Great brand, I was never disappointed by the Monitor Audio products

[@bpalpha]

Extraordinary. I’ve seen a lot of Monitor’s speakers reviewed, but not this series.

[@moonytheloony6516]

My favorite tweeter is the folded ribbon tweeter.

[@user-zb6el4ks2b]

i bought these without even a demo to replace my kef ls50 meta , they look amazing in the piano ebony and the sound is sublime , the kefs do not come close to these for sound , i have a roksan attessa streaming amp driving these for my front speakers , only had a day now and have more base than the kef , i have svs 3000 micro sub which i need to try with them maybe just for the really lows ... and now i have hear they are been discontinued , that is why here in the uk i purchase new with 5 year warranty for £950 ( 1180 dollar ) best thing i bought this year .............

Hello User, we're glad you are loving the sound. It's all about the music 🙂

[@edmundgil6008]

Just beautiful… every finish is stunning. I would have liked more of a sound impression and comparison, maybe with the outstanding Silver and Bronze lines. Maybe for another time! Thank you!

[@GramophoneMD]

More transparent, faster and airier top end thanks to that MPD tweeter.

[@jean-pierreserret301]

how would these compare with the GR Research X-LS Encore?

[@S_M_0009]

👍👍👍

[@biliescu]

Still a huge fan of EMIT. This looks closer to it than anything else. Am I mistaking?

[@GramophoneMD]

Hello Biliescu, you're not wrong. Pretty much all ribbon style or pleated diaphragm tweeters owe a nod to the original EMIT. Of course a lot of progress has been made in ribbon style tweeter technology since then, with various upgrades in frequency response and power handling. Enjoy your day

@@GramophoneMD Thank you!

[@MegaPalesz]

Beautiful speakers!I bought the Gold 100!!!I am fantastically satisfied, the much more expensive speakers are not much better!

[@GramophoneMD]

Glad you like them!

[@scaf_007vs3]

To anyone who might be able to offer input: regarding treble presentation, would these more or less be somewhat polar opposite of say a Sonus Faber equivalent? I've only ever heard monitor audio some 20 years ago or so, and we all know how much has changed since then!

[@GramophoneMD]

Polar opposite? Not really, but yes they are different. Sonus faber has an elevated mid treble and then a roll off in the more sibilant frequencies onward. These are a bit more flat across the treble.

[@scaf_007vs3]

@@GramophoneMD I appreciate the response as im sure you guys are quite busy! When you mention the mid treble, would you attribute this across the majority of the Sonus Faber lines? As in the Lumina line, sonetto, Olympic nova, Homage Tradition, and even their reference products? I guess more specifically I have some interest in anything from the Olympica nova up to possibly IL Cremonese but it would certainly take a bit more research on my part and more $$$ saving depending on how "serious" I become. I have Dynaudio Confidence C1 right now, which I love, but it's always nice to try out different quality brands. When It comes down to it, I'm curious about the Sonus Faber "house sound". I'm not opposed to having some coloration so long as the sound is generally transparent and faithful to what's "there" if you catch my meaning. Again, thanks for taking the time for my previous comment. Any information is welcome, and keep up the wonderfully well made and very informative reviews! Very professional and many of us appreciate when you go the extra mile to share your knowledge! Thank you

silk soft dome tweeter

[@chrisrichards2827]

I think that the MPD tweeter is probably the best tweeter on the market right now very natural accurate and very fast
