Monitor Audio W250 LCR In-Wall Speaker

The two-way W250 LCR in-wall model with dual 5-inch drivers features Monitor Audio's advanced C-CAM cones coupled with a pivoting version of their acclaimed C-CAM gold dome tweeter. Benefitting from recent design refinements and with 15 degrees of play in all directions, the tweeter's higher resolution output can be directed for ideal imaging and reduced in-room reflections. Between the drivers, a simple crossover design of high-grade audiophile components ensures a smooth transition from dynamic rhythmic lows to finely detailed highs, completing a naturally clean and wide response. By virtue of their rectangular shape, the Monitor Audio LCR in-wall models can be used vertically in portrait style or horizontally: the ideal aspect for centre-channel applications in discreet C-inspired home theatre systems.

Performance and Application

The Monitor Audio W250-LCR is designed to deliver exceptional performance in both home theater and high-end audio setups. Its combination of advanced driver technology and robust construction makes it capable of producing detailed and dynamic sound across the entire frequency spectrum. The speaker’s wide dispersion characteristics ensure that sound is evenly distributed throughout the listening area, making it an excellent choice for larger rooms or open-plan living spaces.

In a home theater setting, the W250-LCR excels at delivering clear dialogue, detailed sound effects, and impactful bass, all of which are essential for creating an immersive viewing experience. The speaker’s ability to handle high power levels without distortion makes it particularly well-suited to dynamic movie soundtracks that demand both subtlety and power.

For music listening, the W250-LCR provides a balanced and detailed sound that accurately reproduces the nuances of different genres. Whether you’re listening to classical music, rock, or jazz, the W250-LCR delivers a rich and engaging sound that brings out the best in your favorite tracks.

Paintable Magnetic Grille

To ensure that the W250-LCR blends seamlessly with any room decor, it comes with a paintable magnetic grille. This grille attaches easily to the speaker and can be painted to match the wall color, making the speaker virtually disappear into the surroundings. The magnetic attachment also makes it easy to remove and reattach the grille as needed.
Two-Way Design with Three Drivers

The W250-LCR is designed with a sophisticated two-way configuration, incorporating three drivers. This design enables the speaker to produce a broad and dynamic range of sound. The three drivers include a 1-inch C-CAM Gold Dome tweeter and two 5-inch MMP II cone bass/midrange drivers. This combination ensures accurate sound reproduction across all frequencies, from the deep lows to the crisp highs.

1-Inch C-CAM Gold Dome Tweeter

Central to the W250-LCR's performance is the 1-inch C-CAM Gold Dome tweeter. C-CAM (Ceramic-Coated Aluminum/Magnesium) is a proprietary material that Monitor Audio uses to achieve high rigidity and low mass. This allows the tweeter to deliver extremely clear and detailed high-frequency sounds without distortion, even at high volumes. The pivoting design of the tweeter allows users to direct the sound precisely to the desired listening area, enhancing the overall listening experience.

Dual 5-Inch MMP II Cone Drivers

The speaker features two 5-inch MMP II (Metal Matrix Polymer) cone drivers, which handle the midrange and bass frequencies. MMP II is another proprietary material developed by Monitor Audio, chosen for its strength and lightweight properties. These drivers are engineered to deliver deep, powerful bass and clear midrange tones, making the W250-LCR an excellent choice for both music and movie soundtracks. The dual-driver configuration allows for greater power handling and a wider dispersion of sound, ensuring that the audio fills the room evenly.

Tri-Grip Dog Fixings

The W250-LCR is designed for easy and secure in-wall installation. It features Monitor Audio’s Tri-Grip dog fixings, which provide a better clamping force compared to conventional fixings. These fixings help to keep the speaker securely in place within the wall cavity, minimising vibrations and ensuring that the speaker remains stable over time. This not only improves the longevity of the installation but also enhances the sound quality by reducing unwanted resonance.
High Power Handling

The W250-LCR is capable of handling up to 100 watts of power, making it suitable for a wide range of audio setups. Whether you’re using it as part of a high-powered home theater system or in a more modest audio setup, the W250-LCR can deliver high sound levels without distortion. This high power handling capability ensures that the speaker can cope with dynamic audio tracks, providing both subtle detail and powerful impact when needed.

Wide Frequency Response


With a frequency response range of 60Hz to 30kHz, the W250-LCR is capable of reproducing a full spectrum of sound. The low-end frequency response extends down to 60Hz, providing deep bass that adds impact to movie soundtracks and music. Meanwhile, the high-end response reaches up to 30kHz, ensuring that high-frequency details are reproduced with clarity and precision. This wide frequency response makes the W250-LCR a versatile speaker that can handle a wide range of audio content.

Versatile Mounting Options

The W250-LCR is designed for flexible installation. It can be mounted vertically or horizontally, making it suitable for use as a left, center, or right channel speaker in a home theater setup. This versatility allows for a consistent aesthetic and sound quality across all channels, which is essential for creating a cohesive and immersive home theater experience.

Durable Construction

Constructed with high-quality materials, the W250-LCR is built to last. The use of mineral-filled ABS for the speaker’s frame provides a strong and stable housing that minimises unwanted vibrations. This durable construction ensures that the speaker will provide reliable performance over the long term, even in demanding audio environments.
