Entry-level discreet audio solutions

Combining well-established Monitor Audio acoustic technologies such as Gold-Dome tweeters and Metal Matrix Polymer II (MMP II) bass drivers, our Basics range of in-ceiling and in-wall architectural speakers provide exceptional audio performance – with little intrusion into the interior space. 

In-Ceiling

Offering total placement flexibility, the C165, C165-T2 and C180 in-ceiling models, a 6” and 8” driver size respectively, provide the perfect answer to whole-house integrated audio solutions. With a shallow depth, and patented Tri-Grip fixings, the models are quick and easy to install, and with paintable grilles – they’ll blend in seamlessly. The C165-T2 also cleverly features dual, independent, pivoting 1-inch C-CAM tweeters to enable high-performance stereo sound playback from a single speaker, particularly useful for smaller spaces.

Who is Monitor Audio?

Starting in 1972 with 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.
