MONTANA MONITOR
MUSICAL REALISM FROM A COMPACT DESIGN
Despite its moderate size, the MONTANA Monitor is a true high-performance loudspeaker. In fact, its name is somewhat misleading, since this loudspeaker offers a performance normally associated with much bigger and more expensive loudspeakers.
The MONTANA Monitor has an amazing degree of dynamic impact, bass extension and the ability to paint a dramatically large and holographic sound panorama with oustanding imaging and resolution.
In a sense, the MONTANA Monitor is a compact version of the floor-standing and through many years Stereophile Recommended MONTANA SP3.
Like any MONTANA loudspeaker, the MONTANA Monitor is a sound transducer that will give you an amazing sense of beeing present where the music is performed. True craftmanship, hand assembled components, a rock solid cabinet, an extremely wide variety of finish options and a truly remarkable musical pleasure is what you get in one affordable package, i.e. the MONTANA Monitor.
For many audiophile music lovers, the MONTANA Monitor is a highly affordable entry into the universe of musical realism!
The MONTANA Mini Monitor acheived a rave Danish review in January 2007. The reviewer sums it all up like this:
"Here we go again! Yet another aha-experience. These loudspeakers from Montana are simply phenomenal,
not only at the price. The soundstage reminds me of its big brother, the XPS. Such a soundstage reproduced by
a small loudspeaker like the Monitor priced at DKK 15.900, is simply fantastic. This is a rare bargain.
Conclusion: What can I say? Buy them, buy them, BUY THEM! If you are looking for supermusical monitor
loudspeakers capable of reproducing the whole frequency range. I have rarely listened to a pair of loudspeakers that so amazingly makes you forget everything about size. Aha, size is not crucial! The soundstage is only one good reason why you should audition these loudspeakers. Get going!"
