M3F

Product description
A 1.3-metre full-height column for post-production rooms where the monitor has to reach the console from behind the screen: two 300 mm woofers, two 170 mm midranges and a 28 mm dome in a short waveguide, stacked vertically in a cabinet only 52 cm wide. The waveguide is the tell — this is the range's post variant, where controlled vertical directivity matters more than the last decibel, and the tweeter is a soft dome rather than the Esotar 3 the music-room models carry. Crossed at 250 Hz and 2.5 kHz, 120 dB at two metres, 62 kg, two channels of 500 to 1000 watts.

How to read this chart

Each axis spans the range the 114 studio monitors in the catalog actually cover, so equal distance means equal difference — and for cone area and the two frequencies, which are read as ratios, equal distance means equal ratio. The dashed inner ring is where the scale starts, not zero. Ranked within a class because a bookshelf measured against floorstanders is feeble on every axis for the single reason that it is a bookshelf. Cone area is summed from the drive units — no maker publishes it. Bass and treble reach are quoted to different tolerances and only 56% of the catalog says which, so read those two axes as approximate. Not shown: Sensitivity, Easy load — the maker publishes no figure.
