Monitor Audio takes great pride in providing a high quality product.

We use only hand selected natural wood veneers, which are carefully matched and hand finished to the highest standard possible. The unique nature of each veneer may result in natural colour variation and grain from samples you may have seen in photos or at the dealer’s show room. This is what makes the product a special piece of furniture.

If your speaker is finished in a Cherry veneer please be aware that it will naturally darken with age more so than other types of wood veneer.
