The iconic Studio Series. A legendary speaker range born when music, television, and video tape ruled. An era of bold styles, vibrant colours, early computer gaming and breathtakingly rapid technological innovation that fuelled an unrivalled explosion of popular culture and laid the foundation for today’s digital era.
Glam metal, new wave, synth pop ruled the airwaves, and the birth of the music video revolutionised how artists connected with their audiences. Consumption, individuality and self-expression defined the times.
Studio 89 takes inspiration from this culturally explosive decade but is a thoroughly modern loudspeaker. Inspired by individual expression and the culture that shapes it, Studio 89 is the loudspeaker for the new change-makers.
Studio 89’s radical design is inspired by the individuality and self-expression that made the 1980s such a culturally significant decade.
The implementation of Monitor Audio’s latest cutting-edge acoustic technologies and a beautifully detailed design connect Studio 89 to the artists of today – bringing the sound of the original recording home with more lifelike realism than ever before.
In a nod to the original Studio 15, Studio 89 is resplendent in high-gloss black, with our most technologically advanced metal cone drivers finished in gold. It’s the only model Monitor Audio makes that is available in this luxurious finish.
Studio 89 is fearlessly unconventional. Just like the 1980s. Listen Again.
Studio 89 is compact for good reason. We know space is at a premium within the home, while large room-filling sound is a must. Advances in metal driver cone technology and powerful motor systems mean that the two things aren’t mutually exclusive.
Studio 89 utilises twin 4 1⁄4” bass-mid drivers. These have been specially designed to ensure the three ultra-thin layers of C-CAM, Nomex honeycomb core and carbon weave act pistonically when they are driven by the powerful motor systems, which boast large 85mm diameter magnet structures (the magnet is larger than the cone!) This high-strength magnetic field provides exceptional control over cone motion for pristine performance.
25mm overhung voice coils and a linear cone excursion of 4.5mm allow the drive units to react to even the most dynamic passages with ease, producing an exceptionally large soundstage and presentation into the room.
Studio 89 is a diminutive speaker. Yet its topology ensures that even in large rooms, the soundstage, imaging and detail levels are completely enveloping and remain true to the ethos of bringing ‘studio monitoring quality’ into the home. This is in no small part down to to the ’Point source’ MTM (Mid-Tweeter-Mid) driver Array.
Positioning the MPD III high-frequency transducer between the twin 4 1⁄4” bass- mid drivers, and with a carefully-built third-order crossover to ensure the perfect frequency response across each drive unit for total symmetry, helps control sound dispersion. This complex array of drivers delivers on Monitor Audio’s Transparent Design Philosophy, ensuring that the sum of all Studio 89’s parts are built around total performance.
The resulting high-fidelity sound is of a scale and quality that belies Studio 89’s diminutive size.
Studio 89’s ability to transport the artist’s vision from the studio into your home is the result of Monitor Audio’s Transparent Design Philosophy. An important element in this ability is the advanced acoustic engineering and design of the Micro Pleated Diaphragm (MPD) III high-frequency transducer.
MPD III works with lighting speed and accuracy; its lightweight, pleated design acts like an accordion, producing a wide linear HF presentation into the listening area. Lifelike realism, precision and clarity are produced with ease – from a delicate whisper or note to a growl or shout, every single detail is delivered as the artist intended, in truly spine-tingling high fidelity.
