Monitor Audio Platinum C250 3G Center Channel Speaker

A three-way sealed center-channel loudspeaker with MPD III tweeter, 2.5" RDT III midrange driver, 2 x 6" RDT III bass drivers, and 88 dB sensitivity

The Monitor Audio Platinum C250 3G is a three-way center-channel speaker designed to partner with Platinum Series loudspeakers in a high-performance home theater system. Its sealed cabinet configuration makes it easier to position while delivering the clarity, scale, and dynamic range needed for center-channel duties.

A new MPD III transducer handles high frequencies, joined by a 2.5" RDT III midrange driver and two 6" RDT III bass drivers. Monitor Audio says this driver array increases directivity and dynamic range, helping the C250 3G deliver a powerfully detailed performance.

The Platinum C250 3G replaces both the C150 2G and C350 2G, delivering increased performance from a more compact cabinet arrangement than previous models. It is finished with etched inlays and is available in Piano Black, Piano Ebony, and Pure Satin White.
