The Onkyo GX-10DB 80th Anniversary Special Edition is a limited-run pair of powered (active) desktop monitors finished in Bordeaux walnut with dark silver trim rings, textured black baffles, and black angled stands. Under the retro-inspired styling sits the same Creator Series engine: a fully digital Class D amplifier delivering 30W of total system power to a 3-inch woofer and 3/4-inch tweeter per cabinet, with 70Hz to 20kHz response.
Why This Model Matters
Onkyo turns 80 in 2026, and this edition marks the milestone with a design that draws directly on the iconic 1987 Onkyo D-200 Liverpool monitors. It pairs that classic Hi-Fi character with fully modern connectivity, including a dedicated phono input, so a turntable plugs in with no separate preamp. It is a genuine piece of Onkyo heritage built as a new, current product.
