High Quality In-Ceiling Sound from Monitor Audio

Monitor Audio likes to pass their custom installation speakers around the room when they visit our facilities for training, and I'm always impressed when they land in my hands. The enclosures have the solidity and heft that I've come to associate with the company's high-quality design and manufacturing. The CS180 is packed with technology to deliver smooth, enjoyable sound. It's an excellent choice for a custom-installed stereo or home theater system.

High Performance Drivers Yield Extraordinary Sound

The CS180 offers impressive performance thanks to Monitor's ingenious driver designs. Take, for example, the advanced gold dome tweeter. It's the same one that Monitor uses in many of its traditional cabinet-style speakers, crafted from a high-tech aluminum/magnesium alloy and treated with an anodized layer of gold for even smoother sound. The tweeter pivots, so you can aim the highs toward your favorite listening spot. An 8" polymer cone woofer dishes out detailed mids and tight bass. And Monitor's Tri-Grip® mounts make it simple to fasten this slim speaker into your ceiling or wall and ensure a tight seal.
