The Shape of Genius.
Hyphn is a statement of intent.
Hyphn is a peerless, definitive, uncompromising demonstration of the Monitor Audio Group’s current design, engineering and manufacturing capabilities, and its future ambitions. It is unlike anything Monitor Audio, or anyone else, has ever created: the most creatively ambitious, technically advanced and powerful loudspeaker in the company’s history. It delivers a dramatically enhanced listening experience, with a visually striking presence.
Born of Passion, Vision & Knowledge.
Hyphn is born of collaboration between our designers and engineers, who set out to build the best loudspeaker anyone has ever heard. An ambition that’s easy to express, but a lot more challenging to achieve.
Hyphn is intended to be a ‘statement loudspeaker’ both technically and visually. It is also designed for ‘real’ rooms, taking into account and addressing all the inherent constraints and compromises that entails
- Emily Hesslegrave (Senior Product Designer)
Achieved Through an Inherent Understanding of Sound.
Hyphn is the more refined, further enhanced production version of the Concept 50 loudspeaker, unveiled to enormous media attention and universal acclaim in 2022.
Hyphn is a unique loudspeaker, created at a particular point in time through a combination of three specific factors: a deep understanding of the science of how we hear sound; solid engineering principles; and the creative freedom that comes with being an independent business.
"Monitor Audio has created a staggeringly potent pair of loudspeakers that not only represent the pinnacle of what the company is currently capable of, but that give an indication of where the next 50 years might take it."
- GQ Magazine
Hyphn is unlike anything Monitor Audio, or anyone else, has ever created. A statement of a flagship loudspeaker, conceived and engineered upon an R&D philosophy of maintaining a balance between design and technology, that we call our Transparent Design Philosophy.
Revolutionising what is achievable for high-end home audio, Hyphn features the 3rd generation, Micro Pleated Diaphragm (MPD III) high frequency transducer at the centre of the M-Array. A breakthrough in high- and mid-frequency transducer technology, it provides an acoustic and physical link to the twin bass cabinets that sit either side of it, and contain four force-cancelled 8” bass drivers, capable of delivering impressive levels of tight, impactful bass.
The result of five decades of knowledge and innovation, Hyphn delivers a dramatically enhanced listening experience, with a visually striking presence.
Key Features
- The unique M-Array configuration features a single MPD III Transducer surrounded by six RDT III dedicated midrange drivers
- 3rd generation MPD III high-frequency transducers reduce distortion, flatten frequency response and lead to wider, cleaner more consistent and lifelike sound
- RDT III cone produces piston-like control even under the most extreme performance, providing a more precise, lifelike tonal balance and lower distortion
- Newly optimised Mid-range drivers ensure a completely smooth frequency transition with Tweeter
- Carefully engineered crossovers produced to ensure the most exact and controlled sound performance across full frequency spectrum
- Hyphn is available in three incredible finishes: Matte Black, Matte Heritage Green and Pure Satin White
