About the Silver 8

The Silver 8 is a three-way floorstanding speaker from Monitor Audio's Silver series, designed with a 3-way driver configuration including a 1" C-CAM gold dome tweeter with a damped rear chamber and innovative dome venting for improved clarity and bandwidth, a specially designed 4" midrange driver with an under-hung voice coil for low distortion, and dual 6" C-CAM/RST long-throw bass woofers with a concave dished cone profile for better damping and midbass clarity. The drivers use bolt-through mounting to increase cabinet rigidity and reduce resonance. The cabinet is bass reflex with twin ports, finished in MDF with wood veneer (Walnut or other finishes available). It has a sensitivity of 90 dB, impedance of 4 ohms, and a frequency response from 32 Hz to 35 kHz. The speaker supports bi-amping and is recommended for amplifiers delivering 80 to 200 watts. Dimensions are approximately 41-3/4" high, 9-5/8" wide, and 14-3/16" deep, weighing about 51.3 lbs. The Silver 8 offers a natural midrange presence and clear, extended highs, suitable for users seeking a high-quality three-way floorstanding speaker without the need for a subwoofer. It has a 5-year parts and labor warranty. The speaker was reviewed positively for its fit, finish, and sound quality, with a price around per pair at launch, though current prices vary in the used market.
