Welcome to our Monitor Audio SoundFrame 2 On-Wall Speaker Review, where we explore how this slimline marvel by Monitor Audio redefines home audio aesthetics and performance. Combining a sleek 87mm profile with a true 3-way driver configuration, the SoundFrame 2 harmonises effortlessly with contemporary interiors while delivering audiophile-grade sound.
Visual Elegance Meets Acoustic Power
The SoundFrame 2 is engineered to sit unobtrusively beneath slim TVs or projection screens, or vertically beside larger displays. Its high gloss lacquer frame—available in white or black—acts as a tasteful accent, seamlessly blending with your décor. At just 87.5mm deep, it’s one of the thinnest on-wall speakers on the market, yet it doesn’t compromise on rigidity or acoustic performance.
Audiophile-Grade 3-Way Driver Configuration
At the heart of the SoundFrame 2 lies a pivoting IDC 4" mid-range/1" C-CAM Gold Dome tweeter module, flanked by a robust 6.5" C-CAM bass driver. This true 3-way design, with crossover points at 550Hz and 3.3kHz, ensures a seamless transition between bass, midrange and treble. With a frequency response spanning 55Hz–35kHz and sensitivity of 86dB, it delivers articulate vocals, punchy basslines and crystalline highs.
