Key Features
The Monitor Audio C2S is designed for small in-ceiling installations where a discreet speaker still needs a step up in performance. Its two-way design combines a 5-inch RST II mid-bass driver with a 1-inch C-CAM tweeter, giving music, TV audio, and light cinema use a clear and controlled presentation from above.
With 65W continuous power handling, 84dB sensitivity, and a 40Hz to 30kHz installed frequency response, the C2S is well suited to bedrooms, kitchens, studies, and smaller living areas. HF and corner switches provide useful adjustment once installed, helping the speaker work more effectively in real rooms. A 171mm cut-out and supplied white round grille keep the final finish compact and discreet.

The C2S sits in Monitor Audio’s Tier 2 Creator Series range, above the simpler Tier 1 models and below the more advanced Tier 3 options. Compared with the C1S, it steps up to an RST II mid-bass driver, which helps improve control and clarity for everyday listening. It also adds HF and corner switches, giving installers more control over the final sound. This makes it a practical upgrade when you want better refinement from a compact ceiling speaker while keeping the same small footprint for discreet room coverage.
The S in C2S refers to its small format within the Creator Series in-ceiling range. It uses a 5-inch mid-bass driver and 171mm cut-out, making it easier to place than the medium C2M or large C2L. This smaller size is useful for tighter ceiling areas, compact rooms and multi-room systems where neat coverage matters more than maximum output. It can suit hallways, kitchens, bedrooms and studies, giving you a clean ceiling finish while still adding clearer, more capable sound than a basic speaker layout.
Quik-Link helps make speaker cable connection faster and tidier, which is useful when several speakers are being fitted across one property. Tri-Grip II then secures the C2S firmly into the ceiling, supporting a stable fit and discreet finish once the grille is in place. Its 99mm mounting depth keeps planning straightforward before work begins, while HF and corner switches allow final tuning after placement. This helps installers balance the speaker around room boundaries and create more consistent sound in real spaces.
