LD Systems MON 8 A G3 8-Inch Powered Stage Monitor

The MON 8 A G3 is part of an entirely newly developed family of powered stage monitors for high performance. The MON G3 Series incorporates the advanced technology and premium materials found in high-end monitors typically rented by professionals, making this quality available to everyone. These include, for example, advanced coaxial loudspeakers with integrated 50° x 90° CD horn, which ensure the acoustic ideal of a true point source and thus outstanding audio characteristics even at short listening distances. Besides this, the series offers a high-level of robustness, a comprehensive set of features and the elegant LD Systems design.

As the smallest member of the new stage monitor family, the MON 8 A G3 is particularly inconspicuous and flexible in use: as a stage monitor, in a DJ setup or on a speaker stand as a FOH speaker, as a satellite in 2.1 systems or as a delay line speaker. At the same time, the MON 8 A G3 offers a frequency response of up to 59 Hz, which is unusually low for its size, and thus full-range sound.

Both the signal (XLR/jack combo) and the power connection (PowerCON compatible) can be looped through. This allows for elegant, tidy cabling in multi-monitor set-ups or for distributed sound reinforcement.
