Telegrapher GORILLA-S – Active Analog 3-Way Midfield Studio Monitor – Crow Black (Pair)

OVERVIEW

The Telegrapher GORILLA-S is an analog, active three-way midfield monitor that delivers powerful bass, accurate midrange, and crisp high-end clarity for a superior, detailed listening experience.

Designed for audio professionals who demand precision and accuracy in mixing and mastering, GORILLA-S features a unique combination of rich analog warmth, dedicated amplification for each frequency range, and a sealed enclosure for exceptional transient response.

The GORILLA-S is identical to the GORILLA in terms of sound characteristics, except that it includes two woofers, providing dramatic headroom and a 6 dB boost. It can be used as a centre speaker alongside two GORILLAs, or as a left or right speaker in a stereo setup.

GORILLA-S features dedicated drivers for low, mid, and high frequencies, ensuring comprehensive and clear reproduction across the audio spectrum and enabling precise adjustments during mixing and mastering. Additionally, each driver has its own built-in amplifier that’s optimised for the driver’s specific frequency range. This leads to greater efficiency and control over the sound output, ensuring powerful and nuanced audio.

The sealed enclosure contributes to an impressive transient response and the ability for GORILLA-S to reproduce audio signals with high fidelity and minimal phase distortion. The result is clean, accurate sound that’s particularly beneficial for critical listening and detailed audio work. The sealed enclosure also enhances GORILLA-S’s ability to deliver tight, precise bass and a balanced soundstage, crucial for assessing the depth and positioning of instruments in a mix.

GORILLA-S offers an all-analog design that provides warm, rich sound, ensuring that audio retains its natural qualities to deliver a rich, musical, and engaging listening experience.
