Product Information
”It’s well worth every one of its five stars, too.” ’What Hi-Fi?’ – 5 Star review. Tested as part of Apex speaker package.
Flexible speaker
The Apex A40 works well as a centre or satellite speaker. The design facilitates vertical or horizontal mounting. Freestanding or wall-mounted, the Apex A40 is flexible enough to adapt.
Top quality drive units
Featuring Monitor Audio’s iconic gold C-CAM tweeter dome, the treble response is tuned for a crisp, low distortion sound, that’s free from harshness. The compact bass cones feature distinctive RST (Rigid Surface Technology). Inspired by the Japanese art of Origami, the lightweight cones are made more rigid by the precise pattern of surface dimples. It makes the bass and mid-range natural-sounding and effortlessly flowing.
Punchy bass
Thanks to the twin, HiVe II High Velocity bass ports, the Apex A40 delivers deep, fast-flowing bass that’s always in time with the action. The highly rigid, die-cast alloy cabinet also helps in offering a vibration-free, ultra-low distortion housing. Front-mounted ports mean the speaker can be used in a cabinet or close to a wall.
Luxurious finish
Available in metallic black high gloss or metallic pearl white high gloss, the Monitor Audio Apex A40 enhances any system. Rounded edges keep the style smooth, made all the smoother by magnetically attached grilles, with no visible fixings.
Style and sound come together in harmony, with the Monitor Audio Apex A40.
Designed for uncompromising bass impact, delivered with clarity, the Monitor Audio Vestra W12 transforms your listening experience.
Deep bass from a sub that’s easy to place
The Monitor Audio Vestra W12 is the brand’s mid-size Vesta subwoofer and is perfect for using in medium-sized rooms. Featuring a 12 inch cone, driven by an impressive 500 watt amplifier, it effortlessly reaches down to the lowest notes for cinematic rumble. Although powerful, the sealed cabinet makes this sub room-friendly, as the port-less cabinet can be placed anywhere in your room. With three pre-set DSP modes and a range of other controls, it’s easy to customise the sound to your exact preferences. Choose between black or white finishes for the style that best suits your room.
C-CAM technology for deeper, punchy bass
Featuring Monitor Audio’s renowned C-CAM (Ceramic-Coated Aluminium Magnesium) driver technology, the Vestra W12 hits harder. The cone material is lightweight and resistant to flex, making it ideal for fast, punchy bass with ultra-low levels of distortion. The high excursion driver is instrumental in helping this sub reach the lowest notes – right down to a ground-shaking 17Hz.
Mighty power – 500 watt amp built in
Keeping the mighty bass under tight control is a similarly hefty, high current Class-D amplifier. With around 500 watts of clean power to hand, it has little trouble in keeping the bass cone in check. It also gives the sub the potential for party-level volumes, without placing additional strain on your main amplifier.
Customise the sound – with three pre-set EQ modes
With Music, Movie and Impact modes you can easily change the characteristics of the subwoofer to match your mood. For the most subtle sound, choose Music. A more dynamic sound can be achieved with the Movie mode, making it ideal for the most intense action movies. If you're in party mode and want to maximise the bass beat, then switch to Impact for the most powerful sound possible.
Easy to tailor to your system and room
As well as the three pre-set EQ, the Vestra W12 has a range of controls to enable seamless integration with your system and room. For system flexibility, you can connect via stereo RCA or LFE RCA inputs. Dedicated volume and frequency controls allow for smooth pairing with your existing speakers. A 0/180 degree switch configures the sub for front or rear room placement. Finally, a 12 Volt trigger socket makes it easy to incorporate the subwoofer into a home automation system.
