Key to the Silver RX range is Monitor Audio's Ceramic-Coated Aluminium Magnesium (C-CAM) metal alloy driver cones, which offer delicacy and dynamism in equally, while Rigid Surface Technology (RST) aims to reduce cone break-up and improve midrange clarity.Īlso inside is a new wider bandwidth, 25mm C-CAM gold dome tweeter pushing high frequency reproduction to over 35kHz, crucial for squeezing out the extra detail in Blu-ray and SACD/DVD-Audio discs. The RX6s might be stumpier than many floorstanders at just 850mm high, but they're deceptively heavy – you get the sense that there's tons of technology inside just bursting to make itself heard.Īnd indeed there is.
