    Monitor Audio Speakers

    Does anyone have any experience with Monitor Audio speakers? I just purchased a pair of BR-1's for cheap (floor model but never used supposedly) and I'm curious to hear if anyone else has any opinions on the BR-1's or any other Monitor Audio models. I'm in love with the BR-1's so far. They're one of the flattest speakers I've ever heard except for maybe Genelec, but those are considered studio monitors.
    The only problem I can see from the BR-1's is the very low power requirements (15-70W RMS) as my amplifier is 105W@8ohm, but that won't really even be an issue unless I run the BR-1's at very loud dB-SPL.

    I had a pair of the Monitor Audio silver RS-1s for about six months. Very good speakers for the money. I think that in that price category they have no pair, actually I would say they could embarass speakers twice their price. They were a bit lacking on the bass but that is expected from stand mount speakers, the highs were clean and the mid range was exceptional, i never felt fatigued listening to the speakers. All in all, I think that monitor audio makes good speakers and as long as you stay with the BR-1s or the RS's they offer great value.

      I now use my S9i's for my rears, but they were my fronts, and no complaints here. Replaced them with B&W 801. The Monitor sound was very detailed. I wasn't lacking bass with 2 DD 15's. Overall a very good speaker IMO.

        Thanks guys for the opinions. Just what I figured. I'm sure I'll continue to love them! Detailed sound is what I'm looking for.
