EN.
General : The PL300 is the former flagship model of Monitor Audio from the United Kingdom. The PL300 is the largest model in the highly regarded Platinum series. The later Platinum series of the 2nd and 3rd generation also had a PL500 model, but this 1st generation PL300 was the largest model at the time and the best loudspeaker Monitor Audio made.

Technology : The Monitor Audio PL300 features Monitor Audio's own C-CAM (Ceramic Coated Aluminium Magnesium) drivers and tweeter. This material is an alloy of aluminium and magnesium that is then coated with ceramic. This material is light and extremely stiff, so extremely little distortion occurs and the music signal is reproduced easily and accurately. The ribbon tweeter is also made of C-CAM material and this tweeter is used from as low as 1,800Hz, but this tweeter can reproduce frequencies up to 100kHz(!). The cabinet is very solid and low in resonance, and both loudspeakers weigh almost 50Kg each. The first Platinum series of Monitor Audio was introduced in 2007 and immediately set new standards in loudspeaker technology and musicality. In 2016 the Platinum series was renewed into the 2nd generation. But the first Platinum series is the blueprint on which all new reference models of Monitor Audio are based.

Listening : The Monitor Audio PL300 sounds spacious and refined. Details are reproduced with great ease without forcing themselves forward and dominating the core of the music. The character of the sound itself is neutral and friendly. Little coloration, an honest reproduction, but without the sound being described as 'bare'. Voices and instruments sound clean and 'live'. Despite their friendly character, these Monitor Audio PL300 can also hit hard when needed. Thanks to the stiff and distortion-free drivers, the bass sounds tight and well defined, and drum solos and electronic music are reproduced very convincingly. This makes the Monitor Audio PL300 suitable for many types of listeners, because at both low and high volumes the musicality remains intact and the details and space in the recording are clearly audible.

This set of Monitor Audio PL300 is in good condition and is supplied in the original packaging.
