Shown in Burgundy cloth, with Gunmetal steel. Monopulse have just re styled the Models 42A and 82A - for more details see photos.

This is a hi-fi loudspeaker designed for users who don't want compromise. The HF units, separately suspended on the quarter-inch steels, give absolute precision of impulse and time alignment. These HF units are ferrofluid-cooled, with 28mm treated-textile domes and neodymium magnets, and are rated at 500 watts for 10ms.

Steel bars on the front are for vibration damping. Here they are fitted externally (at additional cost) in matching finish as an option. Otherwise they are fitted internally.

There is long and tightly controlled bass from the big, 200mm, LF drivers. Add a smooth treble from those 28mm diameter, ferrofluid-cooled HF units.

So for Hi-Hi News, "High frequencies were richly detailed, ensuring that instruments buried way down in the mix are clearly discernable as individual".

And for Hi-Fi + it is "the sheer speed and integrity of its music making."
