British High-Fidelity Architectural Sound Redefined
The WSS line offers a refreshingly simple ‘good, better, best’ menu. The Super Slim WSS speakers offer unique flexibility, performance, and elegant aesthetics to achieve perfect results for the most technically demanding applications.
The WSS130 is the entry point and is ideal for general home theatre and music applications. Featuring three bass/mid-range drivers plus one tweeter, the speakers have been smartly designed to enable the performance of a significantly larger monitor. The three-driver layout is key here, as it helps keep the frontal profile look slender as well as deliver a depth of a mere 50 mm. The WSS130 features MMP II cone drivers, augmented by a 25 mm Gold Dome tweeter. This MMP cone technology allows for a simple crossover design and smooth overall sound character.
The WSS130 includes Monitor Audio’s patented ‘tri-grip’ mounting system, meaning you get a robust fixing. This system has been proven over the last decade in the CT and WT ranges, so you know it works brilliantly. All three models share the same footprint and pre-construction bracket, providing simplicity as well as the option of specifying a higher-performance model in the range before completion.

Creator Series - In-Ceiling models
The in-ceiling loudspeaker sits at the heart of architectural sound; its ability to fill a room with wonderful sound while remaining virtually invisible delivers on the primary dream of a custom installation audio system. The Creator Series features small, medium and large in-ceiling models, allowing you to select the perfect array of speakers for your space.
Creator Series - In-Wall models
The in-wall loudspeaker is a versatile, high-performance tool that can add localised quality to any custom installation. The Creator Series in-wall models allow you to create areas of high-performance sound, most usually in a dedicated home cinema space, that rival that of stand-alone loudspeakers, while remaining virtually invisible.
Mount Boxes
The On-Ceiling and On-Wall Creator Series Mount Boxes allow simple delivery of audio in spaces where fully integrated, built-in solutions aren’t an option—delivering high-fidelity sound without restrictions.
Quik-Link
Our new innovative Quik-Link terminal revolutionises speed of installation. With Quik-Link you can make cable connections up the ladder at pre-installation stage. Once the installation is complete, the terminal, which is now connected with the speaker cables, magnetically snaps and locks into place on the rear of the speaker as you place the speaker into ceiling or wall. It’s that easy.
Tri Grip II
Tri-Grip II is a new dog-leg mechanism that is considerably stronger and more reliable than the previous generation, meaning both speaker placement and extraction could not be simpler.
RDT III
Rigid Diaphragm Technology III (RDT III) is a composite ‘sandwich’ structure made from ultra-thin low-mass skins, bonded to a honeycomb Nomex® core material. It is very light and very strong, meaning that it can respond with great speed without bending - just like a perfect piston.
MPD II
Tier 3 In-Wall speakers feature an MPD II high-frequency transducer, developed for the THX Certified Ultra Cinergy range. The precision specification of the Micro Pleated Diaphragm technology is designed to produce accurate, lifelike sound without any distortion.
