The Gold 500 6G is the flagship model of the new Gold Series 6G. It represents the highest-levels of performance and system design at the price point, and within this highly competitive market segment. Designed to house the latest MPD III high-frequency transducer alongside the new 3-inch mid-driver and powerful twin 8-inch bass drivers, each of which benefit from the latest HDT, C-CAM cone technology and hugely powerful motor systems. The Gold 500 6G is a worthy flagship for such a prestigious range; a formidable acoustic treat for the ears as well as the eyes.
The new Gold Series 6G's 8 inch bass drivers exhibit greater linearity, reducing distortion for cleaner and punchier low end. Rigidly secured in place by a new cast aluminium, light-weight chassis design, it provides the optimum structure with maximum airflow around the drive unit.
'Through-bolted' to the rear of the cabinet for improved strength of the overall 'system', Gold Series 6G drive units produce masses of dynamic bass with low distortion and total control.
The new HDT, C-CAM cone, coupled with an FEA-optimised surround design, an inverted build ring, and a copper cap, combine to ensure the usable frequency range of the new Gold Series 6G's 6-inch bass-mid driver has been greatly increased, reducing mid-frequency distortion for improved clarity in two-way systems.
The result is a seamless link from low bass through the frequency range to mid and upper frequencies. This allows the driver to blend smoothly with the MPD Ill high-frequency transducer for a beautiful high-fidelity presentation that reveals all the detail or excitement of a recording.
The result of an extensive development process to refine and achieve even greater performance, the latest generation of Monitor Audio's MPD III (Micro Pleated Diaphragm) transducer delivers precise high-frequency sound with greater consistency, clarity and accuracy. The detail achieved makes music sound lifelike, crisp and real. Fine-tuned for effortless musicality.
All Gold Series 6G's cabinets are designed to form the most rigid structure possible, which allows the drivers to perform to their optimum capabilities.
Coupled with cleverly calculated geometry, advanced bracing techniques and technically accurate crossovers, the cabinets are an important element of the total system under Monitor Audio's Transparent Design Philosophy.
Completed in beautiful, contemporary high-gloss, painted and veneered finishes, Gold Series 6G exudes a quality that continues to ensure Monitor Audio retains its reputation as a world leader in speaker cabinet design.
The quality of Gold Series 6G will last a lifetime, just as a beautiful piece of luxury furniture would.
