The Monitor Audio Super Slim WSS430 is the flagship model of the WSS series, offering premium in-wall audio performance within a remarkably slim profile. Inspired by Monitor Audio's high-end Platinum II speaker range, the WSS430 provides exceptional clarity, detail, and power in a discreet form--making it ideal for home cinema and high-fidelity music applications.
The WSS430 employs three dished C-CAM cone bass/mid drivers for enhanced rigidity and reduced distortion, combined with powerful Neo magnets and large voice coils for impressive drive and control. Its MPD high-frequency transducer, borrowed from Monitor Audio's flagship Platinum II designs, delivers crystal-clear highs beyond 50 kHz with ultra-low distortion. For optimal flexibility, the rotatable tweeter ensures precise dispersion in both portrait and landscape installations. With a magnetically attached trim-less grille, the WSS430 blends seamlessly into any room décor while offering the durability and reliability of premium construction materials.
