Monitor Audio has announced two new limited-edition loudspeakers based on its Silver Series 7G range - the Silver 300 7G Limited Edition and the Silver 100 7G Limited Edition. Both models are presented in a new Carbon Black Metallic finish and individually numbered, combining subtle design updates with proven acoustic engineering. The Silver Series 7G platform, introduced in 2021, sits at the heart of Monitor Audio's mid-range catalogue, bridging the gap between the Bronze and Gold lines. It introduced several key innovations, including Rigid Surface Technology II (RST II) and a new generation of Ceramic-Coated Aluminium Magnesium (C-CAM) drivers. These limited-edition versions keep that same foundation while refining both aesthetics and detail to mark the series' ongoing success.

Wharfedale has unveiled the new Evo 5 Series - a comprehensive update to the multi-award-winning Evo 4 line that builds upon its success with a series of technical and acoustic refinements. The British manufacturer describes the new generation as a natural evolution rather than a reinvention, with changes to the cabinets, crossovers and drive units designed to deliver higher-end sound without higher-end pricing. As before, the series includes both standmount and floorstanding loudspeakers, with the larger models employing true three-way configurations featuring dedicated midrange domes. The familiar layout, however, conceals deeper engineering improvements. The cabinets are slightly larger to increase internal volume, while new crossover designs and upgraded components contribute to a more immersive soundstage and smoother frequency integration.

Monitor Audio has unveiled the Bronze Series 7G, a complete reimagining of the brand's long-running and award-winning entry-level range. The new generation builds upon over two decades of heritage, fusing British engineering precision with a modern design ethos to create loudspeakers that redefine the standard for accessible high-fidelity. Handmade with care and developed under Monitor Audio's Transparent Design Philosophy, the Bronze 7G range represents both a sonic and aesthetic evolution, designed to deliver an immersive experience for music and film lovers alike.

British audio specialist, Q Acoustics, introduces its new trio of high-performance active subwoofers, Q SUB series.

Whatever the size of your home cinema room or the power of your system, Q Acoustics has the right-sized model to fill your space with powerful, impactful, but nuanced and controlled bass.

Each model addresses a clearly defined user requirement, adds innovative acoustic technologies, and is crafted to celebrate and exude the distinctiveness and quality customers expect from the Gold Series. Building on over three decades of heritage, Gold Series 6G represents the start of an epic new chapter - a new way to experience the joy of sensational sound.

Triangle Electroacoustique is one of the oldest French loudspeaker manufacturers. Although the latest anniversary models, still available for sale, were introduced on the occasion of the company's fortieth birthday, at this point we are already halfway to another round anniversary (Renaud de Vergnette founded Triangle in 1980). We all know the story - the music lover and hi-fi equipment enthusiast thought that the speakers available on the market didn't perform as well as they could, so he set himself the goal of creating speakers delivering a clean, dynamic, and natural sound. Many audiophiles can also point out several elements characteristic of the brand's sets. Paper midrange drivers, horn tweeters, high efficiency, an interesting anti-vibration system with a large spike, and extravagant finishes. I can list these features from memory after reviewing the Comète 40th Anniversary Edition, Magellan Cello 40th, Borea Active BR02 BT or the Capella wireless monitors. However, no single product will tell us about the company's history, philosophy, and plans, so I decided to talk to Elodie Deveau, Triangle's Sales Manager.

Focal presents Aria Evo X, a line of high-fidelity loudspeakers for the home to follow in the footsteps of the Aria 900 range, which has enjoyed a decade of success. With revamped technologies and a brand new finish, the Aria Evo X loudspeakers step it up another notch in terms of both sound and design. The French brand has developed this new range as a continuation of the Aria philosophy - to deliver a pure listening experience by providing the best loudspeakers in their category.

The new 5000 stereo and home cinema loudspeaker series from Q Acoustics redefines how a speaker can look and sound. Showcasing genuine advancement in driver design, the introduction of the leading-edge C3 Continuous Curved Cone profile in the mid/bass driver elevates the 5000 series beyond its class and will form a technical platform for years to come. The series also inherits innovative cabinet and driver technology from the company's flagship Concept range for an exceptional sonic performance. The 5000 series brings sophistication to any listening room with its contemporary and minimalist design lines.

Founded in 1998, Amphion has been designing and constructing loudspeakers from the very beginning, distinguished by something that many commercially available designs lack - extremely low sensitivity to imperfections in the acoustics of the listening room. Thanks to well-thought-out technical solutions, the brand's sets can fill any space with high-quality sound, or at least that's what Finnish designers, their foreign representatives, satisfied customers, and installers claim. Not to mention the dozens of musicians and sound engineers who trust Amphion's professional monitors to provide them best results in commercial or home studios and appreciate these monitors for their reliability, transparency, and truthfulness.

Danish loudspeaker manufacturer introduced a grand yet shallow high-performance in-wall speaker designed for true Hi-Fi reproduction in high-end/high-performance home-cinema installations and stereo set-ups. Featuring no less than eight drive units, all developed in-house, this in-wall speaker offers the very best sound experience. The M-675 is our new addition to the Phantom M series offering a step up in size and sound quality compared to the smaller models in the Phantom M range, the M-250, and the M-375. The Phantom M-675 ensures a coherent, powerful, and musical listening experience - all of which offer the spacious and detailed signature DALI sound. Once installed, DALI's wide dispersion philosophy will provide a room-filling sound - reproduced exactly as the artist recorded it. No more, no less.
