Woo!! Thx Clare - anything about the Gold Range?

 

[Clare Newsome]

I'd give them the chance for one major range-revamp at a time, Vinny!

I know, im secretly hoping that the GS range never gets replaced so I dont have to go through the hassle of replacing my setup

Exciting times for MA fans

Thx again

Is it? I'm constantly being told the Silvers (not Phil) are deficient. . .then again I might return today with my tail between my legs.

Well lets just see what the new range is like and you can judge for yourself then

The RX8 in Piano Black look superb for the money, always a big factor for me.....

We wait for the sound characteristics next.......

 

[Andrew Everard]

Pair of RXs coming in for review later this week, I'm told...

So jaxwired was right! It was a good time to sell RS6s then...

Is the blog with pics up yet?

 

[Clare Newsome]

Give us a chance - we only got the go-ahead to publish info within the past 90 mins (and we're still hunting pics!)

We'll post on this thread when blog is up...

UPDATE - PICS JUST PINGED INTO MY INBOX

That's alright, no problem - lunch-breaks are for wimps, anyway...

 

[d_a_n1979]

They do look very interesting

What will be interesting to know is how well they compare to the RS range (for me the RS6's are very hard to beat currently unless you spend c£1k plus so the new range will have to do exceptionally well)!

I was shown the new Monitor Audio Silver RX speakers last week. They look (especially in piano black/white) and sound stunning.

Thanks

Rick @ Musicraft

 

[jaxwired]

Very cool. And in keeping with MA tradition, they look quite sexy! Can't wait to hear 'em.

I'm surprised that companies don't have their web sites ready when they do a press release for a new product...

 

[vinod_david]

Already Musikraft says 'stunning sound', hope RX6 goes 1 or 2 steps ahead from its brother RS6 and silence critics and RS6 haters all over

 

[vinod_david]

Thanks Mr. E (MA fan) for the blogs and pics.

 

[Clare Newsome]

I'm really pleased we're going to have a chance to review at least some of the new Monitor Audio RX speakers before our Awards issue.

The speaker category is hotting up nicely - review of the new Wharfedale Diamond 10 speakers in our new issue, and still plenty of new kit to come - think we get some world exclusive Dalis next!

Drat. Blast. Etc.

I have RS6's, so I'm disappointed that they've been replaced. I don't really care about having the old model, but I'm not ready (pesky credit crunch!) to add the rest of the speakers I need to complete my surround set-up. If stocks of the current range run out quickly, as I imagine they will, I'm kinda stuffed.

Ah well, if anyone spots some clearance deals on the current range, I'd be very appreciative if they pop the details in the bargain section!

I think you have nothing to worry about. RS range was so popular that there will be second hand speakers available for some time to come.

I'm counting on that fact!!!
