Introduction

Congratulations and thank you for purchasing this high performance Monitor Audio CP Series loudspeaker.

In over thirty years, Monitor Audio has become synonymous with high performance, technical excellence, innovation and superior aesthetic design. Our heritage of investment in high-end metal driver and cabinet technology is powerfully expressed by a versatile award-winning range of speakers, which set class-leading standards of sonic excellence and aesthetic appeal. Our now legendary attention to detail ensures that we build the complete loudspeaker for every application, as truthful and transparent as possible.

We invest as much care, expertise and research in the smallest loudspeaker as we do in the grandest. In every case, the materials and technology we apply are broadly similar, endowing each speaker with the same accurate tonal signature. Irrespective of architecture or interior design, Monitor Audio’s range gives you the freedom to supply high quality sound from a versatile mix of floor, stand, wall and flush-mounted speakers. With Monitor Audio, a home can look and sound beautiful.

Speaker Location

We strongly recommend that these speakers be installed professionally so that positioning and fine-tuning can be successfully undertaken using sound measuring equipment, coupled with room layout experience and technical knowledge.

Your CP series In-Ceiling and In-Wall loudspeakers installed in your home theatre can be used as surround speakers in conjunction with freestanding speakers. If you are unsure about where to locate your surround speakers for optimum performance, please contact your Monitor Audio Dealer for advice.

When mounting your speakers in the ceiling, locate the speakers 0.6-2m (2 to 6 feet) behind your listening position. The speakers should be installed 2 to 3m (6 to 10 feet) apart centre to centre.

Fine Tuning & Calibration

Your amplifier or A/V receiver manual will contain information and detailed instruction on fine tuning/calibrating your system so that the correct balance is achieved between the various speakers. It may be necessary to adjust the CP speakers as described in pages 7.

Timbre Matching Guide

Illustrating the perfect blend of custom installation & hi-fi speakers for optimal performance.

Technology

MMP®Mk2

An advance in driver technology developed from Monitor Audio’s original Metal Matrix Polymer conematerial. It uses a high-pressure injection moulding process to achieve different thicknesses at critical points of the cone geometry. MMP® Mk2 provides better stiffness, consistency and tighter production tolerances resulting in superior sonic performance.

C-CAM®Tweeters

Advanced software simulation has allowed us to optimise the tweeter design, bringing higher sensitivity and a wider

band width to reveal the finest high frequency detail all the way up to 30kHz. We’ve developed a sophisticated new

chamber with graduated damping, which controls undesirable resonances for a smoother more accurate response.

C-CAM®drivers

Developed over many years, C-CAM is used as a cone material for all high frequency drivers, and deployed for midrange and bass drivers in our mid-market and top-of-the-range CI and hi-fi speakers. Created originally by aerospace engineers for jet-engine blades, Ceramic-Coated Aluminium/Magnesium exhibits ideal acoustic properties, being extremely strong but very light in weight. Conventional cone materials are liable to flex in operation, producing a significant level of audible distortion.

RST

Our most refined technology, the RST cone surface is patterned with either concentric dimples or radial ridges, which further reduces mass, increases stiffness and eliminates the bending associated with conventional metal cone designs. The result is a smoother, more agile response, better control of break-up and a wider dynamic range. Not only is RST employed by the Gold Signature range of hi-fi loudspeakers, but also the GS-CP in-ceiling and in-wall models.

No sound installation is ever the same. CP stands for Controlled Performance, because each CP in-ceiling or in-wall product is fitted with its own rigid mineral filled enclosure allowing the acoustics to be optimised every time. This ensures that its exceptional sound remains consistent wherever it is fitted.

High Frequency Switching [H.F]

Factory set to 0dB, this offers a sonic balance as the designer intended. However in environments with a high degree of soft furnishings it may be desirable to lift the H.F level to the +3dB setting to achieve a neutral sonic balance. In a minimalist environment it maybe necessary to drop the H.F level to -3dB position.

Mid Frequency Switching [M.F]

Factory set to 0dB, this offers a sonic balance as the designer intended. However in environments with a high degree of soft furnishings it may be desirable to lift the M.F level to the +3dB setting to achieve a neutral sonic balance. In a minimalist environment it maybe necessary to drop the M.F level to -3dB position.

CP Gold Signature Features

CP GS speakers utilise our C-CAM®(Ceramic Coated Aluminium Magnesium alloy) cone, featuring Rigid Surface Technology (RST®). Impressions on the cone’s surface are designed to eliminate bending, increase stiffness and lower mass when compared with conventional cone driver designs. The result is a much faster response, offering music reproduction that is closer to the original performance. A rigid die-cast metal chassis design features a vented rear section and provides extremely low distortion with typically higher output levels. The in-wall model uses the exact same tweeter as that found in the regular stand mount and floor standing GS loudspeakers. Both the in-ceiling and in-wall models extend all the way up to 30KHz.

Additional high frequency and mid-range frequency controls allow the user to set-up the system precisely to obtain optimum performance within the listening environment. This inherent flexibility makes the CP GS speakers suitable for a wider range of demanding applications than that offered by their competitors. They promise a truly ‘high-end’ performance from a custom fit, discreetly installed speaker system.

CP Silver RS Features

Our C-CAM®cone profiles and rubber surrounds maximise the potential of the driver mechanism. The new surrounds allow greater cone excursions with lower distortion and improved frequency response linearity. The flush cone edge provides a very smooth response and a natural, accurate sound. The Silver RS CP pivoting tweeter (In-Ceiling only) is based on Monitor Audio’s famous 25mm gold C-CAM®dome. Improvements to the surround and motor system have extended the frequency response to 30KHz, so that it is ready to exploit new wide bandwidth digital audio formats such as SACD and DVD-A.

An additional high frequency control offers a fine-tuning option to allow the user to set-up the system precisely and obtain optimum performance within the listening environment. This additional flexibility makes the Silver RS CP In- Ceiling and In-Wall speakers suitable for a wider range of demanding residential and commercial applications.

CP Bronze Reference Features

The Bronze Reference drive unit, (MMP®II) offers an advanced driver technology developed from Monitor Audio’s original Metal Matrix Polymer (MMP®) cone material and uses a high-pressure injection moulding process to achieve different thickness at critical points in the cone geometry. MMP®II provides better stiffness and consistency and tighter production tolerances resulting in superior sonic performance. The new bass-mid chassis design has a vented rear section that reduces thermal power compression to deliver increased dynamic range and higher sound pressure levels. This venting also lowers distortion by balancing the pressure within the voice-coil motor system. It means clean, crisp bass and an even clearer mid-range performance.

High frequency performance has been improved by the evolution of the C-CAM®tweeter. The new tweeter utilises a pivoting action (In-Ceiling only) to provide optimum imaging and flexible set-up options. The bespoke crossover uses high-grade polypropylene film capacitors, and low distortion inductors

CP Radius Features

Driver technology refined to deliver the unparalleled sonic performance of Monitor Audio’s award-winning ultra- compact Radius loudspeakers has been applied to its successful Controlled Performance (CP) in-wall/in-ceiling designs to render a completely new flush-mounting loudspeaker range for the most discrete installations.

The in-wall and in-ceiling models utilise a pivoting 20mm C-CAM®Gold Dome tweeter, derived from the remarkable Radius R45 hi-fi monitor - the smallest speaker Monitor Audio has ever made. Its pivoting action allows for the critical high frequencies (to 25kHz) to be directed toward the listening position for the most accurate imaging. Radius CP delivers added installation versatility by providing this feature from in-wall as well as in-ceiling locations. The innovative in-ceiling stereo design uses dual fixed C-CAM®(Ceramic Coated Aluminium Magnesium) domes fed independently with stereo left/right signals. Bass and mid-range frequencies are accurately reproduced by a 5” version of the acclaimed Radius MMP®Mk2 driver.

Setting Up CP Loudspeakers

The following adjustments can be made to the tweeter on CP models except BR, RS & GS In-Wall, as follows:

1. Pivoting tweeters can be tilted up to 18 degrees in all directions to provide optimum coverage.

2. If the speakers are widely separated such that the music fails to blend into a central image when operated

in stereo mode then tilt the tweeter towards the listening area.

3. If the Soundstage seems too confined tilt the tweeter away from the listening area.

4. For further fine-tuning options of your CP In-Ceiling speakers please go to page 8.

Fine-tuning - In-Ceiling and In-wall speakers

The following adjustments can be made to your CP In-Ceiling and In-Wall loudspeakers as follows:

Adjusting H.F (High Frequency) control

(Silver RS CP and Gold CP models only)

The factory H.F setting provides a flat or 0dB level, which will suit the majority of typical installations. However, it is possible to fine-tune the sound from the CP speakers to suit a room’s characteristics or preferred listening tastes by using the following as a guide: -

a. Setting the switch in the +3dB position will add brightness and additional clarity to the system. This may be

effective in a room with a large amount of soft furnishings.

b. Setting the switch in the -3dB position will reduce the brightness on the system and provide a duller sound.

This may be effective in a room with a lack of soft furnishings, or in an installation with a wooden floor.

Adjusting M.F (Mid-range Frequency) control

(Gold CP models only)

The factory M.F setting provides a flat or 0dB level, which will suit the majority of typical installations. However, it is possible to fine-tune the sound from the Gold CP In-Ceiling and In-Wall speakers to suit a room’s characteristics or preferred listening tastes by using the following as a guide: -

a. Setting the switch in the +3dB position will add presence and additional clarity to the system, particularly in

the vocal region. This may be effective for better resolution of dialogue and speech, or in an installation where the listening position is a large distance from the speaker.

b. Setting the switch in the -3dB position will reduce the presence and the system will sound more ‘laid back’.

This may be effective where the speaker will be played for background music, or where the listening position is situated close to the speaker.
