So, we asked ourselves: what would be possible if we took everything we\u2019ve learned over 50 years of designing, engineering and building loudspeakers and brought it all together? There was only one way to find out; and three years later, we\u2019re delighted to present the answer. Hyphn is unlike anything we, or anyone else, has ever created: the most creatively ambitious, technically advanced, and powerful loudspeaker in the history of Monitor Audio Group. It\u2019s a definitive demonstration of the capabilities we\u2019ve developed over our first five decades \u2013 and the shape of things to come.\u201d<\/em><\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><span style=\"font-family: verdana, geneva;\">Rob Barford, Chief Executive Officer, Monitor Audio Group<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<div><strong><span style=\"font-family: verdana, geneva;\">Hyphn MSRP &#8211; $120,000 pr<\/span><\/strong><\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div>\n<p><em><span style=\"font-family: verdana, geneva;\"><span style=\"font-family: verdana, geneva;\">Available Now!

This unique configuration, developed in-house by Monitor\u2019s Audio engineers, comprises a single high-frequency transducer surrounded by no fewer than six 2-inch midrange drivers. The result is exceptional soundstage clarity, allowing the listener to precisely pinpoint individual instruments and vocals.<\/span><\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div><span style=\"font-family: verdana, geneva;\">The high-frequency transducer adopts the new third-generation Micro Pleated Diaphragm III (MPD III) to deliver a larger, clearer and more consistent sound. Developed in-house by Monitor Audio\u2019s acoustic engineers for the Concept 50 prototype, the same technology also appears on the range-topping Platinum Series 3G floorstanding loudspeaker.<\/span><\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div><span style=\"font-family: verdana, geneva;\">The six 2-inch midrange drivers feature Monitor Audio\u2019s Rigid Diaphragm Technology III (RDT III) cones, introduced in 2022 for enhanced clarity.<\/span><\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: verdana, geneva;\">The M-Array is located squarely between Hyphn\u2019s twin pillars, each of which houses a pair of powerful 8-inch bass drivers, facing inwards, in a force-cancelling configuration resulting in almost no vibration force from the drivers, either within themselves or being passed into the cabinet. Large diameter underhung voice-coils reduce harmonic distortion for clean, tight, high-impact bass performance.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\"><span style=\"font-family: verdana, geneva; color: #800000;\"><strong><span style=\"font-size: 28px;\">Power &amp; Precision<br \/>\n<\/span><\/strong><\/span><span style=\"font-family: verdana, geneva;\"><span style=\"font-family: verdana, geneva;\">Hyphn has been engineered to deliver enhanced bass control, response and dynamics, plus exceptional detail through the treble and upper midrange. Crossovers are specifically designed to ensure precise, controlled performance across the full frequency spectrum. It\u2019s also the most powerful loudspeaker Monitor Audio has ever produced.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div>\n<div class=\"text-container galileo-ap-content-editor\">\n<div>\n<div>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.monitoraudio.com\/en\/product-ranges\/hyphn\/hyphn\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><strong><span style=\"color: #800000;\"><span style=\"font-family: verdana, geneva;\">To further explore, click here<\/span><\/span><\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n<div class=\"text-container galileo-ap-content-editor\">\n<div>\n<div style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong><span style=\"font-size: 28px; font-family: verdana, geneva;\"><span style=\"color: #800000;\">The Shape of Geniu<\/span>s<\/span><\/strong><\/div>\n<div><span style=\"font-family: verdana, geneva;\">Hyphn takes its name from the architectural term \u2018hyphen\u2019 \u2013 a link connecting two separate structures. Each loudspeaker consists of two pillars, with the \u2018hyphen\u2019 between them housing the M-Array.<\/span><\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div><span style=\"font-family: verdana, geneva;\">The cabinet is constructed in thermoformed, precision-milled mineral and acrylic stone to create a totally rigid structure. The cabinet features built-in formed port tubes, strengthened ribs and bracing, and an internal and external wall thickness from \u00bd-inch up to 1-inch for bracing around the force-cancelling bass drivers, making the cabinet almost vibration free. This minimizes physical distortion and resonance, ensuring optimum sound clarity and accuracy from the drive units.<\/span><\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: verdana, geneva;\">Hyphn is presented in three luxury finishes &#8211; Pure Satin White, Matte Black, and Matte Heritage Green.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"YouTube video player\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/ierUiZIsmBc\" width=\"890\" height=\"550\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\"><span style=\"display: inline-block; width: 0px; overflow: hidden; line-height: 0;\" data-mce-type=\"bookmark\" class=\"mce_SELRES_start\">\ufeff<\/span><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><span style=\"color: #800000;\"><strong><span style=\"font-family: verdana, geneva; font-size: 28px;\">Key Features<\/span><\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<ul data-rte-list=\"default\">\n<li>\n<p class=\"preFlex flexIn\"><span style=\"font-family: verdana, geneva;\">New flagship Hyphn is the most creatively ambitious, technically advanced and powerful loudspeaker ever created by Monitor Audio.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p class=\"preFlex flexIn\"><span style=\"font-family: verdana, geneva;\">Hyphn is the technical evolution and production version of the highly praised Concept 50 prototype, produced to celebrate Monitor Audio\u2019s 50th anniversary in 2022.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p class=\"preFlex flexIn\"><span style=\"font-family: verdana, geneva;\">The architectural term \u2018hyphen\u2019\u2014a connecting link between two larger structures\u2014was felt to be a suitable name given the radical design of the speakers.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p class=\"preFlex flexIn\"><span style=\"font-family: verdana, geneva;\">Incorporates unique \u2018M-Array\u2019 High and Mid-Frequency technology, with the latest Micro Pleated Diaphragm (MPD III) Transducer and six 2\u201d Rigid Diaphragm Technology (RDT III) mid-drivers.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p class=\"preFlex flexIn\"><span style=\"font-family: verdana, geneva;\">Features two pairs of powerful 8\u201d force-cancelling bass drivers within each speaker.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p class=\"preFlex flexIn\"><span style=\"font-family: verdana, geneva;\">A total of eleven drive units sit within each speaker.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p class=\"preFlex flexIn\"><span style=\"font-family: verdana, geneva;\">Hyphn features a thermoformed mineral and acrylic stone, precision milled cabinet.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p class=\"preFlex flexIn\"><span style=\"font-family: verdana, geneva;\">Available in three luxury finish choices: Pure Satin White, Matte Black and Matte Heritage Green.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p class=\"preFlex flexIn\"><span style=\"font-family: verdana, geneva;\">Designed, engineered and constructed entirely in-house in the UK.<br \/>\n<\/span><\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"color: #800000;\"><a style=\"color: #800000;\" href=\"https:\/\/www.monitoraudio.com\/en\/product-ranges\/hyphn\/hyphn\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><strong>https:\/\/www.monitoraudio.com\/en\/product-ranges\/hyphn\/hyphn\/<\/strong><\/a><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #800000;\"><strong><span style=\"font-family: verdana, geneva;\">Contact Us<\/span><\/strong><\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"font-family: verdana, geneva;\">For more information on the new Platinum Series 3G, please contact:<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: verdana, geneva;\">Rick Lennon, Brand Manager<\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"color: #800000;\"><strong><a style=\"color: #800000;\" href=\"mailto:rlennon@kevro.com\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span style=\"font-family: verdana, geneva;\">rlennon@kevro.com<\/span><\/a><\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: verdana, geneva;\">Casey Carlton, Marketing Projects Manager<\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"color: #800000;\"><a style=\"color: #800000;\" href=\"mailto:ccarlton@kevro.com\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><strong><span style=\"font-family: verdana, geneva;\">ccarlton@kevro.com<\/span><\/strong><\/a><\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Essex, UK &#8211; 2nd May 2023: The production version of the Concept 50 prototype released in 2022, Hyphn is the sum of the Monitor Audio team\u2019s collective experience and expertise.
