Blend Big Sound with the Great Outdoors
Discreet all-weather sat/sub design brings natural full-range
audio to gardens of any size
Designed for excellent concealment in any garden landscape, the
new Climate Garden system will transfer our award-winning hi- audio
quality from home to garden, providing music lovers with the lifestyle
experience of big, wide, detailed sound in the great outdoors.
Its super-discreet all-weather satellite / subwoofer design has been
beautifully and expertly engineered by Monitor Audio for ground level
installation amongst shrubs and trees to deliver a luxury blend of
unobtrusive aesthetics and natural full-range audio in gardens of
any size. The system comprises the Climate CLG140 and CLG160
satellite speakers and the CLG-W12 subwoofer. With up to twelve
satellites in each line arrays per subwoofer, the system is expandable
with additional satellite and subwoofer sets according to garden area.
High quality from the ground up
The satellite speakers are a robust high sensitivity design built to
deliver richly detailed hi- quality mid/high frequencies. Engineered
to withstand the most extreme temperatures and weather conditions,
their rigid conical cast-polymer enclosure houses the company’s
signature 1” (25mm) C-CAM gold-dome tweeter co-axially aligned
with a 4” MMP (CLG140) or 6” MMP (CLG160) bass-mid driver.
The horn-shaped housing provides excellent audio directivity in
free air conditions when positioned close to the garden surface on
a bracket/spike assembly, which neatly encapsulates and channels
the connecting cable into the ground for a discreetly installed result.
Alternatively it’s possible to mount the satellite speakers on a tree,
pole, wall or fence. Supplied in a durable dark brown nish for
excellent coordination with garden colours, the satellite speakers
casing can be painted to blend with any environment.
Easy daisy-chain installation
The CLG-W12 can be powered from a single amplier channel at
4 ohms, with its 70/100V line option recommended for cable runs
over 10m (30ft) and for adding subwoofers to the system. In this
line conguration, the satellites speakers are daisy-chained to the
CLG-W12, one after the other, up to a recommended maximum
of twelve per subwoofer. System expansion to larger garden
spaces simply involves the addition of amplier channels,
subwoofers and satellites.
In the simplest designs, satellite speakers are connected in a mono
conguration to one amplier channel, the other channel powering
the subwoofer. The use of a stereo power amplier with 70/100 volt
line capability and crossover features will allow the adjustment of
levels between bass and mid-high range. Alternatively, the system
can be designed to provide stereo operation by adding elements
to create left/right zones.
When installed the Climate Garden system delivers a smooth,
wide-open and controlled frequency response from 30Hz to 30kHz
in the targeted environment: better than many home audio systems!
For patio or deck applications, the CLG-W12 will install within a
planter box to enhance Monitor Audio’s CLG Series all-weather
cabinet speakers with deep bass frequencies, giving custom
installers additional design options.
Subterranean Bass
Completing the full-range frequency response of the Climate Garden
system is the CLG-W12 passive subwoofer. Optimised for discreet
sub-surface installation, its proprietary Monitor Audio bandpass
design incorporates an internally loaded 12” C-CAM driver which
sits in a waterproof rotationally-moulded polymer enclosure buried
below the garden surface - only the CLG-W12’s domed output port
is visible. From this domed port powerfully taut bass frequencies will
join the clean mids and highs of the surrounding satellite speakers
for punchy and articulate full-range garden sound.
