C-CAM® Bass Drivers

C-CAM® Bass Drivers

Refined over many years by Monitor Audio, Ceramic-Coated Aluminium/Magnesium is used as a driver cone material for all our speaker designs from the mid-market models up. Originally developed by the aerospace industry for jet engine components, C-CAM's properties are ideal for loudspeaker cones being extremely rigid, yet light enough to yield high overall efficiency. C-CAM bass drivers are able to resist the bending distortion imposed by sudden and extreme bass excursions to reproduce very clean, deep and dynamic bass frequencies. Conventional cone materials are more likely to flex in operation, producing a significant level of audible distortion.

"We've seen the the RSW-12 before - it's part of the award-winning RS6 AV surround speaker package......dramatic levels of extension and drive; fast, agile balance; great timing and punch... beautifully finished in real-wood veneer...the results border on the awesome for the money...this is one sub you won’t to hide."

Silver RSW-12

"The secret is in the solid engineering and plenty of flexibility in the controls, and that's just what Monitor Audio has pulled off in the design of this beauty...The stiff, heavy, sealed enclosure helps, as does the hefty amp: 500 watts is claimed, and it certainly sounds like it...the MA is a fast and articulate listen: beats pound out with accuracy and impact, the rhythm accurately timed...the results border on the awesome!"

Silver RS - RSW-12 - Review

"It might be the most expensive, but the Monitor Audio Silver RS1 AV is undoubtedly a class-leading set-up...The sound is spacious and lends itself to creating a fantastic atmosphere...the package can be powerful and forthright, but is versatile enough to adapt to more subtle moments...if you want cinema sound, then the Monitor Audio is the pick of the bunch."
