Sehr guter Zustand
Keine Probleme
Habe ich erst vor einem Jahr neu ausgepackt, und sehr genossen, habe mich jetzt jedoch zu einem Upgrade entschieden
Are you looking at the older Monitor 2 Gold bookshelf speakers, rather than a later Gold-series model? At €300, this is a strong deal: it sits well below the €429 median of six recent sales and above the €227 25th percentile, making it comfortably attractive without being an implausible bargain.
These are well-regarded vintage monitors, valued for their handsome real-wood cabinets, sweet, easy-to-live-with balance and relatively undemanding amplifier requirements. They make particularly good sense in a compact or second system where musicality matters more than deep bass or extreme volume. Before committing, confirm the exact model, that both tweeters and mid/bass drivers are working cleanly, and that the grilles and original terminals are intact; at this price, a clean, complete pair would be a worthwhile buy.
Independent perspective — not a price guarantee. Always verify condition, accessories and provenance before purchase.
Monitor Audio, a British hi-fi mainstay, traces its origins to 1972 when founder Mo Iqbal established the company in a modest factory near Cambridge, England. Starting with hands-on loudspeaker assembly in a garage-like setting, it quickly professionalized, moving to Rayleigh, Essex, in 1976 for in-house manufacturing. This heritage of meticulous British engineering has endured through expansions, including a 2004 shift of production to China while retaining design leadership in Essex, alongside strategic acquisitions like Roksan in 2016 and Blok in 2019.
The brand excels in loudspeakers across diverse categories, from high-fidelity two-channel stereo models to advanced home cinema systems, architectural installations, outdoor speakers, and lifestyle solutions. Signature innovations like the patented C-CAM Gold Dome tweeters, introduced in the 1980s and continually refined, define its sound. Complementing these are amplifiers, streamers, and integrated audio systems, reflecting a broad portfolio that prioritizes proprietary driver technologies and precise enclosure design over peripheral gear like turntables or headphones.
Positioned as a mid-to-high-end powerhouse, Monitor Audio commands respect for delivering audiophile-grade performance at accessible price points, blending relentless innovation with timeless British craftsmanship. Over five decades, it has solidified its status as a global juggernaut, appealing to discerning buyers seeking refined, dynamic sound without boutique exclusivity or vintage nostalgia.
