Monitor Audio's acclaimed Studio 89 has received another excellent review courtesy of Andrew Burns from HomeTheaterReview.com. Winner of the "Highly Recommended" Award, Andrew praises the speakers in his review, highlighting their clean and accurate bass definition, spacious soundstage, non-fatiguing sound and smooth mids.
"I can honestly say the performance of the Studio 89's is what impressed me the most. I've listened to quite a few different speakers with small drivers, and they never had the same heft in the low end, articulacy in the bass and mids, nor the ability to get loud enough to give the neighbors a reason to come knocking on my door."
"...the bass is full, agile, and tight. Not once during my usage did I find myself thinking about throwing a sub into the mix."
"I could hear each note from the acoustic guitar playing as if it was in the room with me. I found the soundstage filled my listening space and enveloped me into the music with a clean and clear presentation, never once with a hint of harshness or too much top-end sparkle."
"I really enjoyed my time with the Monitor Audio Studio 89's, whether I had music playing or was enjoying a movie night with some freshly buttered popcorn. I can assuredly say that I wouldn't mind having a pair of these for myself."
