Monkey Banana Gibbon Air Bluetooth Monitors
The Monkey Banana Gibbon Air is an excellent entry level set of speakers that are so ideal for bedroom producers and/or DJs on a tight budget and working in an equally tight environment.
Sneaking in at under 22 cm’s in height (two-thirds of a ruler) the Monkey Banana Gibbon Air Bluetooth speakers will fit perfectly onto your bookshelf or onto a small desk.
These plus your laptop, a cool DAW and some VSTs and you’re ready to create some magic.
BLUETOOTH
The best part… they also include Bluetooth wireless technology which means you can actually ‘chillax’ on your bed, not worry about any wires but still get the massive, clear sound banging out your speakers.
This is particularly handy for DJs who are sorting out playlists on their laptops. It can be a grind having to sit (or stand) as a desk whilst going through endless numbers of tunes to prep for a set.
With the Monkey Banana Gibbon Air Bluetooth speakers you can kick back on your bed, or anywhere else for that matter and still get the awesome sound from your speakers.
These Monkey Banana Gibbon Air Bluetooth speakers provide clear sound and solid bass and for speakers with just a 4 inch LF driver they pack an impressive punch.
AFFORDABILITY
It must be said though that the Gibbon Air are not strictly 100% studio monitors; but as a first and very cheap studio monitors are probably the best choice for the money spent.
Monkey Banana make excellent studio monitors and this pedigree shows with the Gibbon Airs.
Just read our review of the Gibbon 5 monitors – we were very impressed and for the price and feature set, the Monkey Banana Gibbon Air is without doubt one of the best entry level loudspeakers around.
The Gibbon Air has stereo RCA in, aux stereo 3.5mm jack in and a Bluetooth pairing option, allowing you to pair a Bluetooth device (such as your phone or laptop) directly.
One of the two monitors is active (i.e. it houses the amplifier) and provides the other monitor with power.
