MONITOR MR5S/MR5SW
Compact Two-Way Speaker
The MR5S (Black) and MR5SW (White) are a
compact two-way speaker system designed for
constant-impedance systems. The 5" carbon
fiber woofer, in combination with a 0.75" soft
dome tweeter mounted on a 105° x 105°
constant directivity horn, provide natural,
smooth sound reproduction, ideal for use in
business music systems and indoor/outdoor
background music applications.
The passive crossover is designed to reduce
heat dissipation and optimize the power
response of the loudspeaker. Connections are
made to recessed, gold plated banana
terminals.
The enclosure is constructed of high-
density polystyrene, with integrated mounting
points for use with the optional mounting
hardware, and includes a protective
perforated steel grille.
