Monitor Audio Gold 50 4G Bookshelf Speaker ( DU )

Gold 50

The sculpted low-diffraction cabinet of the Gold 50 houses a single 5.5" RST bass driver and C-CAM ribbon.

The bass driver exhibits the low frequency extension and power handling of a much larger transducer while the excellent C-CAM ribbon soars beyond conventional tweeter domes to a stratospheric 60 kHz. Consequently the Gold 50 combines the frequency range of the finest studio monitors with dynamics that defy its modest dimensions.

Optional, dedicated floor stands are available, which can be filled to provide the ultimate foundation for the best possible sound quality.

This product is now available to use with home theatre design software, The Cinema Designer. Read more.
