A Contemporary Classic.

The story of Monitor Audio’s Gold Series reaches back 36 years. At this level there is no more accomplished combination of speaker design, engineering and truly enjoyable acoustic performance.

Gold in every sense of the word.

Gold Series 6G is comprised of six highly-distinctive models. Each of which is crafted to celebrate and exude the distinctiveness and quality of the Gold Series, while adding innovative acoustic technologies that not only move the envelope of performance, but heighten both the quality of the craftsmanship and listening pleasure.

The all-new Gold Series 6G is built upon an R&D philosophy of maintaining a balance between design and technology. One is never allowed to overpower the other and both play a vital role in delivering on our promise of musical neutrality and acoustic transparency. The physical speakers are designed to sit comfortably within their environment. They are a beautiful statement, but one where perfectly balanced design neutrality means they will blend in for a lifetime of use.

Light, strong, powerful – the perfect piston.

Monitor Audio has been leading the industry in the field of metal driver cone technology for over 40 years. The new Gold Series 6G boasts a totally new metal cone technology in the form of HDT (Hexagonal Diaphragm Technology).

HDT draws on the design of the RDT III cones utilised in Hyphn and the Platinum Series, which consist of a Nomex honeycomb layer sandwiched between Aluminium and Carbon Fibre skins. The new HDT cone employs a hexagonal pattern to disrupt symmetries in the cone breakup.

Impactful, dynamic and controlled bass.

With the new HDT, C-CAM cone, FEA-optimised surround and spider designs, plus increased voice coil length, the new Gold Series 6G’s 6- and 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.

As beautifully finished as luxury furniture.

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 a new, more sustainable man-made veneer, offering a significant reduction compared to the carbon impact of traditional methods of real-wood veneered production. 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.
