The brand new Monitor Audio GX series of loudspeakers have just landed on the shop floor, and we are giving them a good running-in and listening in the demo room, so that we can get a feel for their particular sound quality. Build quality is superb as you would expect of this brand, with quality veneers and innovative curved cabinet design which minimises resonances and internal sound reflections. The perforated metal grille attaches to the baffle magnetically, avoiding unsightly fixings. Of course the Monitor Audio house sound is present - very detailed, clean and with great bass depth and control - our advice would be to partner them with neutral to warmer sounding electronics. Good quality speaker cables are needed to get the best from these speakers, think of Chord Odyssey 2 or Chord Epic Twin as a minimum standard.
