Monitor Audio Gold 100
Overview
The Gold 100 is so consistently developed and thought out that there is no need for further compact speakers in this series. The combination of a 6½” (165 mm) C-CAM woofer/midrange, MPD high-frequency transducer, and rear HiVe II port in a compact, elegant cabinet makes this two-way speaker sound far larger than it is – it sounds closed-back, is adaptable, and is capable of more bass presence than its elegant looks would suggest.
Most importantly, it plays music accurately and precisely, getting the most out of the connected Electronic and your music as a whole. Small in this case is remarkably beautiful.
Main features
The 2-way speaker with HiVe II bass reflex technology provides perfect transient response and tighter bass due to optimized airflow. From the MPD high-frequency transducer results a clean and pleasantly smooth high-frequency reproduction up to the highest frequency ranges.
The 6.5″ woofer/midrange has the following features:
- RDT II cone technology – Specially developed sandwich cone technology of C-CAM, Nomex honeycomb core and woven carbon fiber back for incredible stiffness combined with low weight and high damping.
- DCF (Dynamic Coupling Filter) – Optimized to prevent chassis breakup at high frequencies and reduce further distortion.
Elegant and high quality
- Soft touch top case – Feels premium and gives the speaker a classy furniture-quality look
- Single-bolt-through driver technology – Provides a firm connection of the driver to the cabinet, high stiffness and at the same time best driver/baffle decoupling
