Help Advice please. Has anyone tried Monitor Audio platinum PL II with your nap 250dr.
I know they need a hefty amp to drive them so may end up getting the 300dr later, I currently have 282 / super cap Dr and nap 250dr and currently using 25 year old monitor Audio Studio 50s which I’m pleased with but feel I could do better given their age now. You just don’t hear of naim & Monitor audio together on here but I think they look stunning and have read that they are a fantastic sounding speaker but not sure if they’re more suited to movies than music.
It’s going to be a leap in the dark if I go for them as can’t audition so the only thing I’ve got to go on is based on my existing speakers they should be better.?
My Room is 5m x 4m with ceiling height at 2.8m carpet down on floorboard’s and long curtains solid walls
I’ve had the MA gold 100 5G which are part of the series below Platinum…and they were excellent . Super build quality and sound. I expect the Platinum range to be even more presentable.
Built in China?….but what isn’t….apart from Naim !!!
Movies or music?..…they are 100% for sound, wherever it come from .
I don’t think you’ll be disappointed.
I auditioned a pair of the Platinum 300 PII’s last year - they sounded fantastic and look amazing, but required a bit too much space around them for my room (5m*8m). Probably the most present bass I’ve ever heard in a speaker that price point.
The replacement (300 3G) were also really nice, although I preferred the aesthetics of the PII;s…
