Hi there,
as I told recently to the community, in the 2013 I started to work as graphic designer for some interesting companies in UK: sE Electronics (microphones) and Sonic Distribution (Apogee, DiGiGrid, Direct Sound, iConnectivity, Rupert Neve Design, SM Pro Audio, Waves).
Recently I managed the birth of a new brand (logo, corporate image, packaging, etc.): Munro Sonic, that, basically, brings "back home" the EGG 150 Monitoring System.
In the 2012 sE Electronics, Andy Munro and Sonic started a joint venture to produce these egg-shaped monitors: sE Electronics did the production in China, A.Munro and Sonic did the project.
Now both project and production are done in UK, with a totally renewed amp circuit and design, in a military grade handmade production. The official launch was made during the recent NAMM in L.A. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CudEfeyYOKI (this video was a preview form 2014 NAMM)
Of course I had the chance to follow from inside every step, from the prototype to the final product, and I was really impressed of the effective sound quality and truth reached from those high-end monitors.
Compared in various tests to Adam, Genelec and Dynaudio (same category), in a well treated environment of course, I always preferred the EGG 150.
With my Scope system they sounds very good, and I'm so happy now to wish to share my experience with the PlanetZers.
So, on my own initiative, I asked to James Young, the Managing Director, if it were possible to have an exclusive discount for PlanetZ community and he replied readily with a 10% of discount over the list price of £1.999 (inc. VAT).
So if you are interested to change or add your monitors system, I guess this could be a good occasion to take a leap forward.
Also just to have more precise information about where to find a test listening point near you, don't esitate to write directly to James:
james (a t) sonic-distribution.com
(just use my name Davide and PlanetZ forum as reference in the topic to redeem the discount)
For UK people there is also a telephone number, Munro Sonic: +44 (0)845 500 2 500
Here is the temporary website (we are still working on the final one): http://www.munrosonic.com/

Re: Munro Sonic EGG 150 Monitoring System
Would like to hear them in comparing mode to my ADAM nearfields.
The Eggs are in the same leage, as you say, but it looks like they are quite smaller than the Adam A11.
Nice led defined stereo positioning of the speakers, even off switchable.
Also nice that you can 'lift' the angle to ear position

Re: Munro Sonic EGG 150 Monitoring System
That is the point: smaller cabinet, smaller woofer, but with that egg shape, the basses are unbelievable precise and extended.
For this reason I suggest a listen if possible.
I heard some famous albums for the first time...
