Monitor Audio Gold 100 5th Generation
OverviewThe Gold 100 speaker has been carefully designed so that it can be placed in smaller rooms. The class-leading driver technology from our flagship Platinum II series and the beautiful cabinet construction ensure a premium sound and appearance wherever it is positioned.
The powerful bass driver utilises a 50 mm diameter voice coil, which yields huge power handling capability. The larger radiating surface area of this voice coil ensures heat is radiated away much quicker than in a typical driver to give a stronger performance.
Gold 100 can produce incredibly powerful low frequencies for its size and is composed at all times. The driver is well-damped and the cabinet is incredibly rigid and well braced, to deliver a supremely accurate tonal reproduction. The HiVe II port has been located on the rear of the cabinet to give a compact size and a clean appearance.
