Monitor Audio Radius 270 Slimline floorstanding speakers

Key Features

• 4" C-CAM bass driver - Radius features bass drivers with concave cone profiles, introduced by our top-of-the-range Platinum speakers and applied subsequently to Gold GX. Extensive research and FEA modelling have allowed us to perfect the relationship between the radiating diaphragm and its motor design, introducing larger motor sizes and voice coils for an increased excursion, higher power capability and reduced distortion.
• C-CAM Gold Dome tweeter - optimised to deliver the finest and widest performance within compact Radius cabinets. It benefits from a more efficient rear-venting design, releasing air trapped and compressed at the back of the tweeter dome, and guiding it around the drive assembly to a rear-loading chamber.
• HiVe II port design - Straight from Platinum’s design blueprint, the HiVe reflex port makes its Radius debut. It’s shaped to have the same effect on airflow as a gun barrel on a bullet. Rifled grooves inside the port help to accelerate the flow and reduce turbulence, so air moves in and out of the port more efficiently, for a faster more dynamic bass response.
• Single through-bolt driver fixing provides mechanical de-coupling and enhanced mid-band clarity and resolution. The through-bolts also act as rigid cross-bracing to give a very solid non-resonant cabinet.
• Front and rear ported reflex design

Slimline floorstanding speakers with a big sound

The discreet floorstander

Think floorstanding speaker and you'll probably draw to mind a large and cumbersome box that totally dominates its environment. The Radius 270 is a floorstander with a different take on the style. At just 17.7cm wide and 21cm deep it has a very compact footprint. Smooth good looks also help it blend in with an ability to lose too many floorstanding speakers.

Monitor Audio quality

Despite its sleek good looks, the radius 270 doesn't settle for less than excellence in the sound quality stakes. The latest Radius range comes with gold C-CAM dome tweeters. These give the ideal balance between detail and smoothness. Upper frequencies stay clear and uncongested - even at high volume levels where inferior designs begin to distort. Twin C-CAM woofer units not only provide an insightful mid-range but also help boost the bass to the levels expected from floorstanding speakers. Offering a well-balanced and accurate sound, the Radius 270s suit a wide range of music.

Riffled ports for controlled bass

To boost the bass and speaker efficiency, the Radius 270 speakers are fitted with both front and rear bass ports. The innovative HiVe II port design features riffled grooves to help reduce air turbulence. It's this that helps give the Radius 270 bass that's both fast and powerful.

Luxurious finish

With smooth, seamless edges and neat detailing, the Radius 270 is a premium-quality speaker. Available in real walnut veneer, high gloss black or satin white it's finished to a very high standard and complements the smartest decors.

Beautiful, discreet and powerful-sounding, there are few that match the Radius 270 as all-rounders.

Who is Monitor Audio?

Started in 1972 by the charismatic Mo Iqbal, Monitor Audio began loudspeaker design and production using tried and tested methods available at that time - plastic cone materials, fabric dome tweeters and reflex-loaded braced cabinets. The speakers were welcomed by enthusiasts both in the UK and throughout the World.
