  • Monitor Audio Soundframe 3 On Wall

    The SoundFrame series consists of three sizes of speakers that complement any room. SoundFrame 3 On-Wall is the most compact speaker of the three and it can be used on its own, as a rear to complement the SoundFrame 1 On-Wall and SoundFrame 2 On-Wall, or with a sub-woofer.

    Individual images for the grille cloths can be selected from our library or bespoke speakers can be created using your own high resolution photographs. The cabinet frames are available in high gloss white and high gloss black lacquer.

    The SoundFrames can be fitted either in-wall or on-wall and with or without a frame using the Frameless grilles option.

    The SoundFrame 3 On-Wall has a 2-way configuration with a pivoting 1-inch tweeter module and a 4-inch C-CAM driver.

  • Monitor Audio Bronze 50, Bookshelf Speakers

    These are effectively the replacement for the Bronze 2 as the new range has evolved upwards in size and quality. That means they have some big boots to fill.

    The old Bronze 1s tended to be the speaker of last resort if you really simply didn't have the space for some Bronze 2s. A little thin sounding, they lacked the luscious depth of the bulkier Bronze 2s. A great speaker for a satellite type setup with a matched subwoofer but struggled on their own to produce room-filling sound.

    With the new 6th Generation Bronze baby bookshelf, they've fixed that up. It boasts a larger cabinet, increasing the resonanting chamber to give it a deeper more sonorous sound. The old Bronze 1 has been reborn as a Bona Fide stereo bookshelf.

    On demo now.

  • Acoustic Energy AE100 Mark 2, best British compact loudspeaker?

    The first mini yet mighty speakers that Acoustic Energy released were the AE1 in 1987 that immediately redefined the state of the art of extracting a large sound from small loudspeakers. I particularly recall the retail impact of the AE1 in Melbourne at the the time as I was losing sales of large box JBL and Infinity and Yamaha speakers to this curious then largely unknown English brand.

    Their new version of the AE100 is no different. A reworked cabinet design means a larger internal volume for a richer, deeper sound. New, redesigned drivers (that are made in-house at Acoustic Energy) give more definition and accuracy. A new waveguide design also accompanies the new tweeter for better sound dispersion.

    Cunningly the cabinet of this small speaker is made of exceptionally high density material rather than the normal MDF of loudspeakers in this category, and in doing so realise a greater internal volume in a cabinet of the same size with lower resonance properties. The result is deeper bass with less colouration than other products of this size and price.

    All-in-all this is a substantial redesign with marked improvements over the original AE100.

  • Monitor Audio Bronze 100, Bookshelf Speakers

    The new Bronze 100 Bookshelf speakers are the large bookshelves in Monitor Audio's 6th Generation of the ever popular Bronze Range. They replace the Bronze 2s but have been completely redesigned from the bottom up, not just tweaked here and there.

    We're very sad to see the last of the Bronze 2s walk out the door because they've been such an awesome speaker for so many of our customers...in fact they were Carlton Audio Visual's best selling speaker if their generation

    So the Bronze 100s have very large shoes to fill. Are they up to the task?

    Yes they are. Actually, we think they're better.

    An even bigger sound but with more tightness in the bass and that bit of refinement in sound that was lacking with the Bronze 2. There's no front firing port on the new Bronze 100 but this is a good compromise with this speaker and goes a long way to improving the sound. If you are worried about speaker placement being too close to a wall, a couple of foam bungs in the ports will solve that.

     

    Actually the Bronze 100s are really good at low volumes and retain an even frequency balance across a wide spectrum of volume operations. Just generally many speakers are tuned so that they are only offering a full and balanced sound over a relatively narrow volume range. The Bronze 100s are a slightly unfashionable size but this gives them a particular advantage in this respect. They are one of the great all round loudspeaker designs for their sensible asking of the monies.

  • Pro-Ject Speaker Box 5 S2, Bookshelf Speakers

    These are a simple but beautifully thought out and designed set of speakers. I spoke to their Heinz Lichtenegger, the head of Pro-Ject about them, and he passionately described the design ethos behind them as the crusade to get good stereo sound to the masses.

    Even more than the high end gear, Heinz seems particularly invested in getting good 'mecahnical' rather than electronic sound to the broader population countering the mono trend for little bluetooth speakers. A turntable and and well placed set of Speaker Boxes bring a much richer experience to the listener.

    He went on to explain that he asked his architect about what shape he should choose for a new set of speakers and was met with 'there's everything right abut the box shape of a set of speakers, why change it?'. The box serves a function and is an instantly recognisable form. There is no need to redesign the envelope if it works just fine. 

    What the architect said though is keeping the form the same doesn't mean you can't look at the details that make a good thing great. Like kitchen bench tops and other furniture in the house, our interactions with things are based on the haptic touch of a product. We're more likely to go up, touch, use and appreciate something if it has round edges and feels nice! That's why the effort was put in to make the smooth edges on the speakers and the satin feel of the finish.  

    And more than the aethetics and texture of the speakers. These little boxes make a big sonorous sound. I was actually pleasantly suprised by what they could do.

    These units are part of the Colourful Audio System by Pro-Ject and are on demo in our new Pro-Ject room on Lygon st.

    Check out the Colourful Audio System here.

    They are available in Walnut, Satin Black, Satin White, Satin Yellow, Satin Green and Satin Blue.

  • Legend Acoustic Joey 14

    The Joey bookshelf speakers have been a favourite of Carlton AUdio Visual since Dr Rod Crawford made his first set many years ago. For a speaker that is just under $1000 per pair, they have a clarity of tone and precision that is simply unrivalled.

    Adding to that, these are hand crafted here in Australia and finished off with real hard wood Aussie veneers.

    Rod, not only uses the best parts available in his speakers, he also knows HOW to use them. He was Linn Acoustics head speaker designer for many years and has degrees upon degrees from the best universities in the world. On top of that he has a deep passion for sound and music. You'll often catch Rod at classical music concerts up and down the East coast of Australia or chatting about the intricacies of speaker design to anyone who is interested. 

    His passion results in a speaker that is much better than it's meagre price point.

    You'll need a good amplifier to bring out the most of these. But when you give them the kind of power they deserve, they will reward!

     These are available in Jarrah, Light Oak and Black

  • The Rega Kyte loudspeaker ... design heresy

    A price repositioning by Rega means these beauties are $999 for the pair.

    A design that has has torn up the rule book for loudspeakers. Possibly the only new thing in speaker design in this market area since the original Wharfedale Diamond in the mid eighties. This loudspeaker has made no concession to fashion or aesthetic but is a really interesting design that images well outside the box with a full well balanced tonality,

  • Monitor Audio Silver 50 (7G)

    Monitor Audio are continually updating their speakers and making discernible improvements to the sound and finish of their products.

    Their latest refresh sees a new slant on the ever popular Silver range. An updated mid/bass driver and wave guide on the tweeter are the major improvements to the sound. But the apple is not falling far from the tree. For those who have always loved the sound of the silver range, you won't be shocked by drastic changes in the core sound. Simply slight improvements in clarity and presentation.

    The same goes for the finish of the cabinets. There are changes to the colours. The walnut is richer and less red. I think it looks more natural. We also see the wide spread availability of the White and Ash (likened to the old natural Oak) finishes in Australia as well as a Gloss Black and an Oak Black finish.
