The compact Monitor 50s are designed to be placed in a bookshelf type environment and they deliver a surprisingly powerful performance for such small speakers. The Monitor 50's modern square cabinets complement the 5,5" MMP II drivers and 1" black C-CAM tweeters. By placing the tweeters in the top corner of the speakers, it has been able to reduce the size of the cabinet and give a unique appearance. The compact dimensions, driver technology and rear port allow the speakers to perform in the most confined locations. As the cabinet is rear ported, the output is well damped and is suitable for placement close to a wall. A single set of high quality gold plated binding posts provide the connections for a suitable amplifier.
