The perfect match for a Vector system but also ideal as an upgrade for a basic 5.1 speaker set-up, the Monitor Audio V20 is a flexible centre speaker.

Unlike many 5.1 speaker systems that use the same speaker design all-round, the Vector V20 is a dedicated centre speaker. It uses a larger, horizontal cabinet with front bass porting, giving it the necessary characteristics for clear and precise dialogue.

Using the same tweeter as the Bronze range, the V20 starts with an enormous advantage. The C-CAM (Ceramic Coated Aluminium Magnesium) gold tweeter has an extended frequency response that stretches to beyond 30 kHz. Whilst this may be well above our audible spectrum it does have a positive effect on the sound; lower notes that we can hear aren't compressed downwards or harmonically compromised. In short, the treble response is smooth, sweet and detailed. Matching this class-leading tweeter is a Metal Matrix Polymer bass cone. Again, much better than average, this bass cone offers a clear and articulate mid-range with enough bass for the speakers not to sound tinny. Finally, the woofer is held in place using a single, bolt-through design that's also shared with more expensive Monitor Audio speakers. This helps reduce cabinet resonance and gives the speaker a cleaner sound.

It's not just the sound quality that marks the Vector V20 out, it's the style, too. Finished in a 'soft touch' rubberised black skin, the speaker looks and feels far more sophisticated than most. It's practical, too. With the surface being non-slip, it's easy to place on a shelf above or below your TV. Alternatively, a single point fixing also allows the V20 to be neatly wall mounted using a variety of brackets.

Small, smart and sophisticated. The Vector V20 comes highly recommended.

If this is your first order with us, please ensure that the only address you enter is the credit card billing address, as this is the only address to which we can deliver. If you have previously placed an order on our website, you will be offered an alternative delivery address if your order value is
less than £500. Also, ensure you only click the submit order button once, as it will take a minute or so to process.

If after this time you have still to take receipt of your order email webaftersales@richersounds.com providing your order number, name, address, and brief details of what you ordered. We strive to answer all queries within a working day, although at busy times we do ask that you bear with us.
