It is built for projects where a simpler in-wall speaker may feel a bit light, but where you still want the installation to stay neat and commercially sensible. It is a three-way design using two RST II bass drivers, an RST II midrange driver, and a C-CAM tweeter, with Quik-Link and Tri-Grip II included to make installation quicker and more secure.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe W2M is a proper three-way in-wall speaker, using 2 x 5-inch RST II bass drivers, 1 x 3-inch RST II midrange driver, and 1 x 1-inch C-CAM tweeter with UD Waveguide II. That is a more serious driver layout than a basic two-way architectural speaker, and it is there for a reason. It gives the speaker more structure through the mids, better body, and more believable room-filling sound.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eThree-Way In-Wall Design with Better Scale\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eA stronger architectural option for rooms that need more than background fill\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eMonitor Audio says the result is the sort of clear and lifelike high-fidelity sound you would expect from one of its passive box loudspeakers. That is a useful clue to where the W2M sits in the range. It is not just there to disappear into the wall. It is there to sound properly sorted once installed.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThat matters in practical terms because larger wall-based systems need to sound deliberate, not just convenient. A speaker like this makes much more sense in cleaner living rooms, media rooms, and better-spec multi-room zones where the system still has to feel substantial even though the speakers are hidden into the wall.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eSealed Cabinet for Cleaner, More Predictable Behaviour\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eEasier to integrate into real rooms and wall constructions\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eOne of the more useful details here is that the W2M is sealed. That generally helps give a more controlled and predictable result, especially when speaker placement and wall construction are already doing some of the decision-making for you.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe installed frequency response is 40Hz – 35kHz, sensitivity is 87dB, nominal impedance is 6 ohms, continuous power handling is 120W, and recommended amplifier power is 45–180W. Maximum peak SPL is listed at 116dB. Those are strong figures for an in-wall speaker and point to a model built for more than light background-duty use.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eQuik-Link and Tri-Grip II for Easier Installation\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eFaster fitting and secure mounting for real custom-install work\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eMonitor Audio highlights the Quik-Link speaker cable connector as a major part of the W2M story, designed to improve the speed and ease of installation. It also says Tri-Grip II is there for quick, simple, reliable, and strong fitting.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe W2M has a cut-out size of 527 x 198mm, a mounting depth of 85mm, and uses the WM-B pre-construction bracket. The current accessories listed on the page are WM-B Pre-Construction Bracket, WM Mount Box, and WM-BOX.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003ctable\u003e\n  \u003ctr\u003e\n    \u003cth\u003eSpecification\u003c\/th\u003e\n    \u003cth\u003eDetails\u003c\/th\u003e\n  \u003c\/tr\u003e\n  \u003ctr\u003e\n    \u003ctd\u003eBrand\u003c\/td\u003e\n    \u003ctd\u003eMonitor Audio\u003c\/td\u003e\n  \u003c\/tr\u003e\n  \u003ctr\u003e\n    \u003ctd\u003eModel\u003c\/td\u003e\n    \u003ctd\u003eW2M\u003c\/td\u003e\n  \u003c\/tr\u003e\n  \u003ctr\u003e\n    \u003ctd\u003eProduct Type\u003c\/td\u003e\n    \u003ctd\u003eIn-Wall Speaker\u003c\/td\u003e\n  \u003c\/tr\u003e\n  \u003ctr\u003e\n    \u003ctd\u003eSeries\u003c\/td\u003e\n    \u003ctd\u003eCreator Series\u003c\/td\u003e\n  \u003c\/tr\u003e\n  \u003ctr\u003e\n    \u003ctd\u003eTier\u003c\/td\u003e\n    \u003ctd\u003eTier 2\u003c\/td\u003e\n  \u003c\/tr\u003e\n  \u003ctr\u003e\n    \u003ctd\u003eSystem Format\u003c\/td\u003e\n    \u003ctd\u003e3-Way\u003c\/td\u003e\n  \u003c\/tr\u003e\n  \u003ctr\u003e\n    \u003ctd\u003eChannels\u003c\/td\u003e\n    \u003ctd\u003e1\u003c\/td\u003e\n  \u003c\/tr\u003e\n  \u003ctr\u003e\n    \u003ctd\u003eFrequency Response, Installed (-6dB)\u003c\/td\u003e\n    \u003ctd\u003e40Hz – 35kHz\u003c\/td\u003e\n  \u003c\/tr\u003e\n  \u003ctr\u003e\n    \u003ctd\u003eNominal Impedance\u003c\/td\u003e\n    \u003ctd\u003e6 ohm\u003c\/td\u003e\n  \u003c\/tr\u003e\n  \u003ctr\u003e\n    \u003ctd\u003eMinimum Impedance (20Hz to 20kHz)\u003c\/td\u003e\n    \u003ctd\u003e4.8 Ohm @ 1kHz (4.1 Ohm @ 15kHz)\u003c\/td\u003e\n  \u003c\/tr\u003e\n  \u003ctr\u003e\n    \u003ctd\u003eSensitivity (2.83Vrms@1m, Installed)\u003c\/td\u003e\n    \u003ctd\u003e87dB\u003c\/td\u003e\n  \u003c\/tr\u003e\n  \u003ctr\u003e\n    \u003ctd\u003eMaximum Peak SPL (single speaker @ 1m Z-Weighted)\u003c\/td\u003e\n    \u003ctd\u003e116dB\u003c\/td\u003e\n  \u003c\/tr\u003e\n  \u003ctr\u003e\n    \u003ctd\u003eContinuous Power Handling\u003c\/td\u003e\n    \u003ctd\u003e120W\u003c\/td\u003e\n  \u003c\/tr\u003e\n  \u003ctr\u003e\n    \u003ctd\u003eRecommended Amplifier Power\u003c\/td\u003e\n    \u003ctd\u003e45–180W\u003c\/td\u003e\n  \u003c\/tr\u003e\n  \u003ctr\u003e\n    \u003ctd\u003eDrive Unit Complement\u003c\/td\u003e\n    \u003ctd\u003e2 x 5-inch (127mm) RST II bass driver, 1 x 3-inch (76mm) RST II midrange driver, 1 x 1-inch (25mm) C-CAM tweeter\u003c\/td\u003e\n  \u003c\/tr\u003e\n  \u003ctr\u003e\n    \u003ctd\u003eCrossover Frequency\u003c\/td\u003e\n    \u003ctd\u003eLF\/HF: 650 kHz, MF\/HF: 3kHz\u003c\/td\u003e\n  \u003c\/tr\u003e\n  \u003ctr\u003e\n    \u003ctd\u003eBass Alignment\u003c\/td\u003e\n    \u003ctd\u003eSealed\u003c\/td\u003e\n  \u003c\/tr\u003e\n  \u003ctr\u003e\n    \u003ctd\u003eMounting Depth\u003c\/td\u003e\n    \u003ctd\u003e85mm\u003c\/td\u003e\n  \u003c\/tr\u003e\n  \u003ctr\u003e\n    \u003ctd\u003eCut-Out Dimensions\u003c\/td\u003e\n    \u003ctd\u003e527 x 198mm\u003c\/td\u003e\n  \u003c\/tr\u003e\n  \u003ctr\u003e\n    \u003ctd\u003eExternal Dimensions (Including Grille)\u003c\/td\u003e\n    \u003ctd\u003e560 x 231 x 90mm\u003c\/td\u003e\n  \u003c\/tr\u003e\n  \u003ctr\u003e\n    \u003ctd\u003eWeight\u003c\/td\u003e\n    \u003ctd\u003e3.9kg each\u003c\/td\u003e\n  \u003c\/tr\u003e\n  \u003ctr\u003e\n    \u003ctd\u003ePre-Construction Bracket\u003c\/td\u003e\n    \u003ctd\u003eWM-B\u003c\/td\u003e\n  \u003c\/tr\u003e\n  \u003ctr\u003e\n    \u003ctd\u003eCabinet Finish\u003c\/td\u003e\n    \u003ctd\u003eMatte black \u0026amp;
