    Default Monitor Audio Reference 705 PMC

    Does anyone know anything about these speakers, I’ve been on the Monitor Audio site and can’t find anything

    Not surprised you cannot find them on the MA website, they have been out of production for many years.

    I had their smaller siblings the 703s and they are a great speaker but the 705 has the additional bass driver for more welly.

    Some user reviews http://www.audioreview.com/product/s...o/705-pmc.html
    CD player = Marantz CD6006
    DAC/pre = Rotel RC 1572
    Power amp = ADA PF201
    Speaks = Quadral Chromium Style 6

    I sent an email off to Monitor Audio for some info this afternoon, by 4pm they had sent me the years of production , technical specs and brochure, ok I sent it from my work email address and we are AV integrators but even so, well done MA on such a quick and thorough response

    Monitor Audio speakers were always nicely put together, with some gorgeous wood finishes. Although my surround speakers, MA Radius, are gloss black, which is just black and glossy.

    Why the curiosity Mike? You thinking about getting some?
    I just dropped in, to see what condition my condition was in

    Forget the past, it's gone. And don't worry about the future, it doesn't exist. There is only NOW.
