    DONT SWAP YOUR BR2 FOR MX1 or 2020 - YOU WILL REGRET!


    Why dont you just replace the driver??

    Any idea if it's the tweeter (top one) or the Woofer ( Larger bottom one)?

    We can supply the parts to repair your Monitor Audio BR2 really cheaply and honestly whilst we would love to sell you a new pair of speakers your BR2's will still outperform MX1 110% and still sound good against 2020.

    To replace the woofer is approx €56 and to replace the Tweeter is approx €39 - it's really unlikely (as in I have never seen it on an MA speaker) that you have blown both drivers so really it's worth replacing the drivers - it's a simple 10 minute job - we can talk you through it!

    Keep me posted,

    (I'll get given out to now for not selling you new speakers :()

    I have two Wharfedale valdus 400 cabinets, for listening to music. I am looking for speakers to replace the old ones.
    200 mm -8 ohm-92db-150 watt, bass and mid speakers. Anyone?

    Hi Dadgad,

    Thanks for getting in touch.

    Are you limited to 200mm? Or can you go a lil bigger? Got some nice options but they're bigger speakers.

    Check out the Cambridge Audio S30 speakers. They almost tick every box:

    http://www.richersounds.com/product/bookshelf-speakers/cambridge-audio/s30/camb-s30-blk

    I can offer these for £129.95.

    Let me know what you think.

    Chris
