The new Monitor Audio Platinum Series 3G series offers a choice of four premium models designed to satisfy both two-channel or multi-channel home theatre system configurations. The series consists of the Platinum 100 3G stand mount, Platinum 200 3G mid-sized floor stander, and the formidable, flagship floor stander, the Platinum 300 3G. Each speaker works independently in a high-performance two-channel system, or, with the addition of the Platinum 250 3G centre-channel as part of a high-performance AV system. However you choose to configure them, they will propel the listener into a truly immersive and high-fidelity experience, allowing both music lovers and film aficionados to experience utter perfection.
The Platinum 300 3G’s combination of MPD III transducer, 4” RDT III mid-range driver and two 8” RDT III bass drivers allow it to deliver exceptional scale and depth. The worthy flagship of the Platinum Series 3G, this loudspeaker is quite simply the best in its class.
The Platinum 300 3G, the flagship of the Platinum Series, represents the absolute pinnacle of what is achievable at its price-point in terms of both performance and design. The combination of the innovative new MPD III transducer and the RDT III mid-range and bass driver cones, allows the speaker to deliver exceptional scale and depth. With a totally immersive soundstage and believably lifelike performance, 300 3G’s presentation of music and film is astonishing. The Platinum 300 3G’s expertly crafted design and innovative acoustic system performance, ensures that it will remain relevant for a lifetime.
Re-defining what is achievable for high-end home audio, each model in the Platinum Series 3G features the new 3rd generation Micro Pleated Diaphragm (MPD III) high frequency transducer. Developed by Monitor Audio’s acoustic engineers when creating the company’s ground-breaking ‘Concept 50’ prototype, this breathtakingly accurate tweeter was unveiled earlier this year for their 50th Anniversary celebrations.
