Monitor Audio has built an enviable reputation for superb small speakers, winning the EISA Award for its bookshelf model last year and building on this performance for its latest, sixth-generation series in 2020. They’re admirable performers across a wide range of musical styles, with a killer combination of bass weight and sweet treble from the brand’s in-house-designed Ceramic-Coated Aluminium Magnesium (C-CAM) drivers, and a reflex port ‘rifled’ for smoother airflow. Their contemporary looks and easy-to-drive nature add to the appeal of these very sophisticated little speakers.
