Introduction
With the extraordinary success of RX as its blueprint, the latest Silver Series advances the art of
mid-market speaker development with new models and technologies. Features introduced by
the prestigious Platinum and Gold series speakers have been refined, and recent innovations in
driver engineering incorporated across an extended new Silver series. While the Silver 1, 2, 6,
centre and FX retain the form factor of their predecessors, the Silver 8 becomes a full three way
design, and new to the Silver family, the Silver 10 offers an up-scaled floor-standing format,
featuring twin 8” bass drivers for a deeper more dynamic and consistent response in larger
rooms.
New bass and mid-range drivers
Unlike conventional cones, which incorporate a centre aperture for the voice-coil, the dimpled
RST
®
(Rigid Surface Technology) C-CAM
®
cones deployed by the Silver Series take the form
of a continuous uninterrupted radiating dish having inherently greater strength and area. The
voice coil sits beneath and is coupled to a larger motor by an innovative, more efficient drive
assembly.
In addition, the Silver 8 and 10 models feature a newly developed 4” mid-range driver, operating
in its own damped and optimised enclosure to provide accurate mid frequencies. It features
a short voice coil ‘under-hung’ in relation to the magnetic gap to ensure that the coil remains
inside the gap at all times for significantly reduced modulation and extremely low distortion.
New tweeter
Distortion from air compression at the back of a tweeter dome has been eliminated by Silver’s
new 25mm C-CAM tweeter design, which vents into a large rear-loading chamber, producing
much lower resonance and better overall damping. The frequency response from the new
tweeter is more accurate at lower frequencies for a smoother more natural handover with
the mid/bass driver. Meanwhile high frequency extension has been improved and break-up
reduced by improvements in cone geometry and drive mechanism.
Other design features
The new Silver Series retains the single bolt-through driver fixings deployed by RX to reduce
cabinet colouration. Each bolt acts as a rigid brace, but also removes the need for conventional
driver fixings as well, effectively decoupling the driver and front baffle to eliminate a further
source of resonance.
NOTE: Should this bolt become loose over time, or has worked loose during transit,
then please use the supplied hex key to tighten the bolt back up. This only needs to
be a quarter turn on after the strain has been taken by the bolt.
Evolving from Platinum, Monitor Audio’s HiVe port technology is incorporated on all but Centre,
FX and W12 subwoofer models. HiVe uses a straight rifled design to accelerate air flow and
reduce turbulence for clean powerful bass and superior transient response. Polypropylene film
capacitors, air core and laminated steel core inductors have been utilised in the crossovers
to maintain the best possible signal integrity. All models in the new Silver Series offer higher
sensitivity, reduced distortion and higher impedance than their predecessors, ensuring a wider
choice of partnering equipment.
