Monitor Audio Platinum PL300 II Floorstanding Speakers

The Platinum standard
Standing at the top of Monitor Audio’s impressive speaker range, the Platinum is their magnum opus. Everything that Monitor Audio has developed over many decades of speaker manufacturing is refined to the highest standards, making the Platinum range a true reference from which to judge others.Everything becomes clear with the Platinum 300
As medium-large floorstanding speakers, the PL300 IIs suit a wide range of rooms – from medium-sized to large, open plan spaces. There astonishing frequency response lets you hear every element of music, for a true reference in stereo sound. Alternatively, for the ultimate home cinema system, PL300II speakers can be used as front speakers – with centre, subwoofer and effect speakers available to match.Ultimate top-end performance
Designed especially for the Platinum range, the PL300II features a MPD (Micro Pleated Diaphragm) tweeter. Working by squeezing the pleats, like a super-fast accordion, gives the treble a sensational response – right up to a class-leading 100,000Hz. What this means is you get totally uncompressed harmonics for a spacious and life-like top-end performance. If it’s in the recording, the PL300II will reveal it.

Dedicated midrange
As a 3-way speaker, the PL300 II features a drive unit dedicated to the midrange. With aluminium front and carbon fibre rear, sandwiching an aluminium honeycomb structure, the midrange driver delivers perfect motion and the lowest levels of distortion. What this means is vocals sound so realistic that they could be in the room with you.

Effortless bass
Featuring underhung, edge-wound voice coils improves the thermal efficiency allowing for unsurpassed dynamics. This means relentless, powerful bass, without the distortion that can afflict other speakers – especially at higher volumes. Twin, long-throw woofers mean that the bass response isn’t just tight and dynamic but it’s also deep, too. With a frequency response that drops all the way down to 28Hz, you’d need a very high-end subwoofer to improve on it.

Ultra-low distortion cabinet
To reduce cabinet distortion to a minimum, Monitor Audio use a variety of cabinet construction techniques. The resin front baffle is designed to be as acoustically ‘dead’ as possible for the least resonance. The laminated MDF cabinet is ultra-stiff and shaped for the lowest distortion possible.

Hand-finished cabinet in luxury materials
Matching the peerless sound quality is the luxurious finish. Choose between Ebony high gloss real wood veneer or the timeless appeal of Piano Black gloss lacquer. Both look absolutely sumptuous. As a finishing touch, the front baffle is hand-upholstered in high quality Inglestone leather, supplied by Andrew Muirhead.
