Sold as a pair, it runs to 43Hz in room, which is a lot of bass for a speaker this size. It is also the model the Silver AMS 8G is designed to sit on top of, so it doubles as the front of a compact Atmos system.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003chr\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhy You'll Love It\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eA 6 inch driver in a small box.\u003c\/b\u003e Most bookshelf speakers this size use a 5 inch cone.

Be realistic about sensitivity though, because 86.5dB is the lowest in the range and these will sound flat on an underpowered amplifier. In a small to medium room with a decent integrated they are excellent, and they scale into a full Atmos system later without being replaced.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003ePro Tip:\u003c\/b\u003e These are called bookshelf speakers but they are not designed to live inside a bookshelf. A ported cabinet against a rear wall or boxed in by shelving will boom, so use stands and leave a hand's width behind them if you can.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003ctable\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd colspan=\"2\"\u003e\u003cb\u003eConfiguration\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eType\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e2-way bookshelf speaker\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eSold as\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePair\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMid-bass driver\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e1 x 6 inch C-CAM RST III\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eTweeter\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e1 x 25mm C-CAM Gold Dome with UD Waveguide II\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eBass alignment\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePorted, Silent Flow Port Technology\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePort tuning\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e52Hz\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd colspan=\"2\"\u003e\u003cb\u003ePerformance\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eFrequency response (in-room, -6dB)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e43Hz to 35kHz\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eSensitivity\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e86.5dB (2.83Vrms at 1m, free-field)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eNominal impedance\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e8Ω\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMinimum impedance\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e3.8Ω at 240Hz\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eCrossover frequency\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e2.6kHz (LF\/HF)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMaximum peak SPL\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e110dB (AES75, Z-weighted)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eContinuous power handling\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e100W (CTA 426-B)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eRecommended amplifier power\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e50W to 200W into 4Ω, 25W to 100W into 8Ω\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd colspan=\"2\"\u003e\u003cb\u003ePhysical\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eDimensions (H x W x D)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e335 x 185 x 332 mm, with all accessories fitted\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWeight\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e8.2 kg each\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eFinishes\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eHigh Gloss Black, European Walnut, Satin White\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd colspan=\"2\"\u003e\u003cb\u003eWarranty\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWarranty\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e5 years\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e","brand":"Monitor Audio","offers":[{"title":"High Gloss Black","offer_id":48347102544130,"sku":"MON-S50XXX-8G-SPK-BLK","price":1439.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true},{"title":"European Walnut","offer_id":48347103002882,"sku":"MON-S50XXX-8G-SPK-WAL","price":1439.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Satin White","offer_id":48347103035650,"sku":"MON-S50XXX-8G-SPK-WHT","price":1439.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0064\/4376\/1716\/files\/monitor-audio-bookshelf-speakers-mon-s50xxx-8g-spk-blk-1254967659.jpg?v=1787113990","url":"https:\/\/www.customht.com.au\/products\/monitor-audio-silver-50-8g-bookshelf-speakers","provider":"CHT Solutions","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
