Part of Black Fortnight Sales.

Half-price Monitor Audio speakers.
Comparable to the Grays eBay Dali deals (Zensor 3 / Zensor 7).

These are passive-speakers and will require an amplifier.
Please do your own research on British manufacturer
Monitor Audio to see whether these speakers will suit you.

Notes: Monitor 100 / 200 / 300 have dual-binding posts (for bi-amping).
C-CAM tweeter stands for Ceramic-coated aluminium / magnesium tweeter.
Colours available for all speakers: Black / White / Walnut.
(I think they look great in white with the orange woofer)

Monitor 300 ($829 on-sale)

    Would these be any good for movies or only for music?

    • +5

      I would have no hesitation in recommending them for silent movies.

    • Do some research online.
      In my opinion cheaper models tend to do better with movies than music.
      Movies usually just demand clarity and deep-bass (powerful subwoofer), music is a bit more complex with reproducing instruments & vocals accurately.

    • They'd be fine for movies, much better than the TV's speakers, but for a "good" movie setup you really need at least a centre channel and sub.

      • Yes have added to notes in description.
        The full Monitor Audio 5.1 package is available on-sale at Eastwood HiFi.

        And since the Monitor Audio C150 Centre speaker is still normal price everywhere, the savings are only $62 for getting the package compared to getting everything separately.

        • If you want to cheap out on centres, buy the bookshelves, turn it on its side and split the pair with another ozbargainer

  • C150 Centre speaker available for $219 Delivered here @ The Audio Tailor.
    Making it cheaper to buy everything in the 5.1 pack separately by $172.
