Reimagined for today Studio 89 takes inspiration from the culturally explosive 1980s and Monitor Audio’s iconic Studio Series, but is a thoroughly modern loudspeaker. Inspired by individual expression and the culture that shapes it, Studio 89 is the loudspeaker for the new change-makers. Studio 89 is a compact bookshelf model that houses many of the advanced acoustic technologies found in both Platinum Series 3G and Monitor Audio’s statement speaker, Hyphn. Powerful twin 4 ¼” RDT III C-CAM bass-mid drivers provide punchy, articulate and controlled bass that seamlessly blends with the MPD III high-frequency transducer. The sonic package delivers exceptionally lifelike HF clarity and taught MF/LF bass precision for a truly high-fidelity presentation. Studio 89’s cabinet is finished in a deep high-gloss black paint with gold-coloured drive units. This is a reference to the iconic Studio 15, which was the only model within the original Studio Series available in this stylish combination. Studio 89 delivers a breathtakingly big sound, from a beautifully finished compact box.
