Description
The Monitor Audio Hyphn is a unique loudspeaker, created at a particular point in time through a combination of three specific factors: a deep understanding of the science of how we hear sound; solid engineering principles; and the creative freedom that comes with being an independent business. Featuring the new M-Array high- and mid-frequency driver array and four force-cancelled 8” bass drivers per speaker, Hyphn is capable of delivering an unrivalled listening experience.
Born of Passion, Vision & Knowledge.
Hyphn is born of collaboration between our designers and engineers, who set out to build the best loudspeaker anyone has ever heard. An ambition that’s easy to express, but a lot more challenging to achieve. Hyphn is intended to be a ‘statement loudspeaker’ both technically and visually. It is also designed for ‘real’ rooms, taking into account and addressing all the inherent constraints and compromises that entails.
Hyphn is a statement of intent.
Hyphn is a peerless, definitive, uncompromising demonstration of the Monitor Audio Group’s current design, engineering and manufacturing capabilities, and its future ambitions. It is unlike anything Monitor Audio, or anyone else, has ever created: the most creatively ambitious, technically advanced and powerful loudspeaker in the company’s history. It delivers a dramatically enhanced listening experience, with a visually striking presence.
Key Features
- The unique M-Array configuration features a single MPD III Transducer surrounded by six RDT III dedicated midrange drivers.
3rd generation MPD III high-frequency transducers reduce distortion, flatten frequency response and lead to wider, cleaner more consistent and lifelike sound. - RDT III cone produces piston-like control even under the most extreme performance, providing a more precise, lifelike tonal balance and lower distortion.
- Newly optimised Mid-range drivers ensure a completely smooth frequency transition with Tweeter.
- Carefully engineered crossovers produced to ensure the most exact and controlled sound performance across full frequency spectrum.
- Hyphn is available in three incredible finishes: Matte Black, Matte Heritage Green and Pure Satin White.
