Product Description
Magnat Monitor Reference 5A Floor Standing Active Two Way Speakers Black
Anyone who has ever wondered if there are multifunctional and fully active speakers in full dimensions, can now answer their question with a YES.
COMPACT, BUT WITH SOUND OF A MUCH MORE MODEL
The tweeter dome has a diameter of 25 mm and is driven by the proven, powerful ferrite magnet. Below are two 170mm speakers. One serves the all-important vocal range as a bass-midrange speaker, while the second is designed purely for reproducing bass frequencies. The use of materials really makes an impact here – the Monitor Reference series floor speaker extends to a frequency of 28Hz. Nevertheless, the 5A has a subtle visual appearance and can therefore be placed in any living room environment.
There is even more amplifier power here: Each channel has 60 watts of continuous power (or 120 watts of peak power). An HDMI input, Phono preamp, Bluetooth® with aptx® Low Latency, as well as analog and digital connections complete the configuration here as well.
Magnat Monitor Reference - Active speakers with timeless appearance and high technology configuration
Good speakers are essential when it comes to playing high quality music. But what if these speakers also incorporate the necessary electronics, such as the Magnat Monitor Reference? Not only do they make listening to music a real pleasure, but they also ensure easy and intuitive operation. Instead of having a range of technology, all you need to do is turn on your TV, smartphone or tablet and they are ready. Of course, there is also a connection for turntables, which are becoming increasingly popular again, as well as all the other devices used to provide video and audio in our homes.
MAGNAT MONITOR REFERENCE - ALL MEDIA, NOT MORE ELECTRONIC DEVICES
Fully active stereo speakers like Monitor Reference now offer everything you need in terms of inputs, which is a lot more than just a few years ago. Bluetooth® connectivity allows smartphones, tablets and computers to connect quickly and easily, but mostly wirelessly. Whether you're playing games, watching YouTube or listening to any streaming service - you can enjoy the right sound in optimum quality in no time, because Bluetooth® (version 5.0) is built-in with aptx® Low Latency. The name reveals that the sound is played without any delay, which is especially important when watching movies and series.
All signals are transmitted in a simple way from a TV to speakers via the HDMI Audio Return Channel (ARC), the same applies to everything connected to the TV. Whether you are using a set-top box or game console, as soon as the corresponding input on the TV is selected, movies, series and games are played in full audio. And thanks to the CEC, ie control via the HDMI port, you can easily control the volume using the remote control of your TV.
VINYL AND MORE – MAGNAT MONITOR REFERENCE IS EQUIPPED FOR EVERYTHING
On the current topic of discs: The built-in, high-quality voice preamp allows a turntable with an MM pickup (MM stands for Moving Magnet), for example the MTT 990, to connect directly to the speakers. There are also additional analog and digital inputs that allow any existing source to be connected to the screen reference speakers. Signals up to 24 bits and 192 kHz can be processed via the optical digital input. This means that music can also be played in high resolution quality.
PREMIUM TECHNOLOGY ON BOARD
Of course, the active speakers of the Monitor Reference series are also equipped with our most tested components. After all, we do not want to compromise on sound. The tried and tested 25 mm tweeter dome with radiation optimized sound has already been proven in several other series. Medium and low frequencies are reproduced by 125 or 170 mm speakers, with the larger model complemented by a pure 170 mm woofer. Low-resonance paper cones are driven by powerful, magnetic systems optimized to prevent distortion.
The amplifier, which is integrated in one speaker, operates with low distortion and the highly efficient Class D technology to provide - depending on the model chosen - between 25 and 60 watts of continuous power (RMS) and between 75 and 120 watts peak power - of course per channel. High quality crossovers ensure the optimal balance between the individual frame. Thanks to the phase optimization, the sound emitted by all the speakers reaches the listener at the same time. The supplied remote control allows you to easily select the desired input and volume. They can also be adjusted via the practical buttons on the back of the speaker.
ONE BEGINNING - THREE SIZES
If we have made the decision extremely easy for you so far, you now have to choose between three different sizes. Magnat Monitor Reference 2A is available in library speakers. The Reference 3A is another compact but even more powerful model, and the 5A offers the desired mix of materials in a floor-standing speaker. The choice of color is easy to decide as the REFERENCE series is only available in a classic black finish.
