Acoustic system Monitor Audio CSS230

This superb speaker system is the lowest profile speaker in Monitor Audio's range. The speaker is only 50 mm deep, yet the model can provide a maximum sound pressure of 103.8 dB and withstand power input up to 60 watts when using a crossover.

A feature of the Monitor Audio CSS230 model is that the engineers installed not one large bass driver in the speaker cabinet, but three 76-mm mid/bass drivers with cones made of proprietary C-CAM alloy.

A dome tweeter in the center of the speaker is responsible for high frequencies.

Manufacturers claim that this design allows you to develop the same sound pressure, but does not take up much space and weighs less than a similar speaker with one speaker.

Acoustics Monitor Audio CSS230 can be installed both open and closed - depending on the design of walls and ceilings.

To turn a closed speaker into an open one, you need to remove the rubber cover on the rear panel.

Also in the Monitor Audio CSS230, Tri-Grip mounting technology and magnetic grill fixation were used.
