The Monitor Audio W165 is a high-performance in-wall speaker from the Basics range, designed to deliver quality audio while remaining virtually invisible once installed. It features a 6.5-inch MMP II cone bass driver paired with Monitor Audio's signature 1-inch C-CAM Gold Dome tweeter, providing wide frequency response and excellent dispersion throughout the room.
The pivoting tweeter allows fine-tuning of the high-frequency image to suit your listening position, while the three-position HF adjustment switch (+3 dB, 0 dB, -3 dB) lets you tailor treble output to match the acoustics of the room. The mineral-filled ABS plastic construction is both rigid and lightweight, and the included paintable magnetic grille ensures a seamless blend with any wall finish.
With easy-fit toggle clamps for quick drywall installation and a shallow 92 mm mounting depth, the W165 is an ideal choice for multi-room audio, home cinema surround channels, or any application where high-quality sound is needed without taking up floor space. Sold individually.
