It benefits from the latest MPD III transducer, 2.5” RDT III mid-range driver, and twin 6” RDT III bass drivers, which combine to increase directivity and dynamic range. It’s designed to deliver increased performance in a more compact cabinet arrangement then previous models (it actually replaces two models, the C150 2G and C350 2G), and when placed at the centre of a home theatre system, the Platinum C250 3G’s impact and ability to propel a listener to the very heart of the action is undeniable.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"text-align: start;\"\u003e\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0225\/9777\/files\/Monitor-Audio-Platinum-300-3G-wide_20362530-51ce-487b-8e2e-a1a31a7b53f5.jpg?v=1663722942\" alt=\"Monitor Audio Platinum C250 3G Centre Speaker\" style=\"float: none;\"\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003ePlatinum 3G - Objects of desire\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003ePlatinum Series 3G is a culmination of ground-breaking acoustic innovations brought together in a number of expertly crafted designs that celebrate the rich legacy of the Platinum Series.

Firstly, a new rear layer featuring two uniform layers of carbon fibre skin helps reduce cone breakup, as does an optimised rubber surround. Finally, a cone edge treatment extends the passband of the drivers. When combined, these innovations significantly increase the useable bandwidth, enabling improvements to the crossover and final response of the speaker. The result: Platinum 3G mid and bass drivers boast the lowest distortion of any Monitor Audio speaker in its history.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"text-align: start;\"\u003e\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0225\/9777\/files\/Monitor-Audio-Platinum-300-3G-wide2_18369d4e-a43f-4d95-af37-9f2de94a3ac3.jpg?v=1663722959\" alt=\"Monitor Audio Platinum C250 3G Centre Speaker\" style=\"float: none;\"\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003ePERFORMANCE\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePlatinum II offers you genuine audiophile performance with stunning design and materials specification.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn the pursuit of ever lower distortion, no detail has been overlooked.
