MT-50
The MT-50 home theatre system combines the M-1 loudspeaker, with the incredibly compact, yet powerful, ASW608 subwoofer for an unbelievable surround sound experience.
Big movie sound doesn’t necessarily require a blockbuster budget. Our entry-level MT-50 system delivers both great value and a truly immersive cinematic soundscape. This system swaps the PV1D for our compact but punchy ASW608 subwoofer, available in a choice of matt black and white finishes to match the M-1s.
The versatile M-1 satellite provides all five speakers in this surround system, providing a full-range, coherent and cohesive sound from the front to the back of the sound stage. The M-1 is also compact and discreet enough to fit into relatively small spaces.
For big sound in small spaces, it’s hard to beat the ASW608, the most compact of the 600 Series subwoofers, and the perfect partner for the M-1 satellites in smaller rooms.

M-1
The M-1 loudspeaker can be used on its own, with a subwoofer in a 2.1 system, or as part of one of our Mini Theatre systems.
Sleek, compact, yet packing a powerful punch, the M-1 satellite speaker can be used on its own, with a subwoofer in a 2.1 system, or as the backbone of our Mini Theatre systems. From the inside out, the M-1 was conceived as a unified system. Its design has evolved in a totally integrated way, from the custom-made crossover to the two-piece clamshell cabinet.
And now, following a complete technological overhaul, including all-new drive units designed in-house, it sounds better than ever. Dispersion has increased. Imaging is pin-point accurate. Performance is now full range. In fact, the improvement is such that a single pair of M-1s could happily take on the role of your dedicated stereo speakers.
The speaker’s versatility allows it to adapt perfectly to any home environment, no matter how awkward the space. You can put the M-1 on a bookshelf. Or mount it on a wall. Or position it on its own floor-length stand. It can even swivel to a horizontal position, for when you want to use one as a centre channel speaker. Available in a choice of Matte Black or Matte White finishes, its clamshell cabinet is formed from just two interlocking, continuously curving sections. It all adds up to stunning sound, whatever you are listening to.

ASW608
Its long-throw 200mm driver allows the ASW608 to move the large volumes of air needed for high-quality low-frequency output, and its audiophile-standard 200W Class D amplifier keeps the unit running cool, even when the music or movie action is whipping up a storm.
In all of the 600 Series subwoofers, the bass driver diaphragms are constructed from a rugged, finely-tuned mix of paper pulp, Kevlar® fibres and resin, which provides the stiffness needed to withstand the tremendous physical forces exerted by the voice coil and pressures inside the cabinet.
Ultra-solid construction delivers slamming bass, drum kicks, and special movie effects. Deformation is minimised; bass precision, power and enjoyment are maximised.
