Design for Sound
The super-compact S150 is constructed from a high-tech mineral-filled polymer for excellent rigidity and damping to form the ideal acoustic environment for a cluster of four specialised drivers, comprising a proprietary gold dome C-CAM tweeter flanked on angled baffles by dual 3”-CAM metal cone bass drivers augmented by a rear-firing Auxiliary Bass Radiator (ABR).
The C-CAM drivers are powered directly by dedicated class-D amplifiers, generating forty watts in total, fed by a high resolution DAC and optimised by intelligent digital processing to ensure the ideal balance of detail, dynamics and dispersion within Bluetooth range.
Brimming with Monitor Audio’s flagship technologies, the beautifully specified, space-efficient Airstream S150 delivers an irresistible blend of style, performance and effortless convenience to music lovers seeking excellent design innovation with instant audio gratification.
