The Silver On-Wall 8G replaces it with something far more capable, and the numbers make the case: it reaches 44 Hz in-room at minus 6 dB, where the FX stopped at 81 Hz.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp style=\"margin:0 0 0.9em 0;line-height:1.55;\"\u003eThe layout is a straightforward two-way: a single 6-inch C-CAM mid-bass driver with RST III cone geometry does the heavy lifting, and a 25mm C-CAM Gold Dome tweeter takes over at 2.9 kHz. Silent Flow port technology handles the bass alignment, tuned to 47 Hz.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp style=\"margin:0 0 0.9em 0;line-height:1.55;\"\u003eMonitor Audio also designed it to work either way up, so you can stand it vertically as a left or right channel, lay it horizontally under a screen as a centre, or hang a pair at the sides for surrounds. One model covering all three jobs simplifies a system build considerably.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2 style=\"font-size:1.25em;margin:1.4em 0 0.35em 0;font-weight:600;\"\u003eMeasured on the Wall, Not in Free Air\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n\u003cp style=\"margin:0 0 0.9em 0;line-height:1.55;\"\u003eHere is a small detail that says a lot. Every other Silver 8G speaker lists its sensitivity measured in free space, but this one lists 88 dB measured installed, against a wall, because that is the only place it will ever be used. Monitor Audio published the number that actually applies to you.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp style=\"margin:0 0 0.9em 0;line-height:1.55;\"\u003eThe load is friendly too: nominal impedance is 8 ohms and the minimum only drops to 5.5 ohms, the gentlest curve in the Silver 8G range. If you are asking an AV receiver to drive seven or nine channels at once, that matters more than a headline wattage figure.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp style=\"margin:0 0 0.9em 0;line-height:1.55;\"\u003eThe eighth-generation driver work is all present. RST III cone geometry increases rigidity and cuts colouration through the vocal range, where an on-wall speaker earns its keep. The Gold Dome tweeter gained a vented rear chamber, an updated compression ring, and a ring neodymium magnet, and it sits in the Uniform Dispersion Waveguide II for consistent dispersion at any volume.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp style=\"margin:0 0 0.9em 0;line-height:1.55;\"\u003eThrough-Bolt Technology anchors the driver to the rear of the cabinet at a set torque, bracing the driver and stiffening the enclosure at once, while internal bracing and damping do the rest.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2 style=\"font-size:1.25em;margin:1.4em 0 0.35em 0;font-weight:600;\"\u003eWho Is This On-Wall Speaker Best For?\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n\u003cul style=\"margin:0 0 0.9em 0;padding-left:1.4em;line-height:1.6;\"\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePeople who have run out of floor space\u003c\/strong\u003e — A wall-mounted cabinet solves the problem a stand cannot.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAnyone building a full Silver 8G system\u003c\/strong\u003e — It works as a front left and right pair, a centre, or surrounds.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOwners of a multichannel receiver\u003c\/strong\u003e — A 5.5-ohm minimum is easy on an amplifier driving many channels at once.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eListeners who want real output from a wall speaker\u003c\/strong\u003e — 44 Hz and 112 dB peaks are well beyond typical on-wall territory.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAnyone with a proper spot for speakers already\u003c\/strong\u003e — At 18 inches tall and nearly 20 pounds, this is no discreet slimline panel.
