Its enhanced bass performance makes it the perfect choice as a standalone speaker where a subwoofer isn’t required. Combined with a Radius subwoofer however, the R180 forms part of a formidably powerful stereo or multi-channel home cinema system.

As with the R90, the R180 is supplied with a high quality die-cast metal wall bracket and both black and silver grilles. The elegant and optional Radius floor-stand provides further positional flexibility.

Technology

• Unique drivers designed and tooled for Radius. The new cast bass-mid chassis is made from high-tech glass loaded engineering polymer that provides better damping than metal and increased overall strength.
• 4" MMP II. Monitor Audio's second generation Metal Matrix Polymer cone material now uses a high-pressure injection moulding process to achieve different thicknesses at desired points of the cone geometry for greater stiffness and consistency resulting in superior bass and clearer mid-range frequencies.
• Magnetically shielded drivers allow Radius to be safely used near sensitive microprocessor equipment or video displays.
• High quality crossover uses high grade metalised Polypropylene capacitors for increased clarity. High-grade air core and laminated iron core inductors give lowest possible distortion and low insertion losses.
• Specially developed high grade PCOFC internal cable is used throughout to ensure maximum signal transfer at all frequencies and low signal resistance.
• Single through-bolt driver fixing provides mechanical de-coupling and enhanced mid-band clarity and resolution. The through-bolts also act as rigid cross bracing to give a very solid non-resonant cabinet.
• Sealed cabinet design with rigid MDF construction throughout.
• Smooth radius edges reduce diffraction effects for better imaging.
• Front ported design (180).
• Perforated metal grilles supplied in both black and silver to match individual decor or taste.
• Specially designed die-cast metal wall bracket system (supplied) provides 20 degrees of vertical and horizontal pivoting for easy positioning.
