Monitor Audio Gold GX200 Floorstanding Speakers - Piano Black

The new Gold GX Series is a completely ‘ground up’ design featuring advanced driver technologies and materials amalgamated to form a real world, yet truly esoteric speaker range. Our engineers set their sights high, by attempting to harness the amazing sonic characteristics demonstrated by the prestigious Platinum series. The GX focuses on honesty, there are no smoke and mirrors here, just meticulous attention to detail and passion at every step of the design process.
That attention to detail is evident within every component part, manufactured from only the finest materials, cast and machined to exacting tolerances. Whilst incredibly rigid, and as a result stronger, the curved panels also reduce standing waves, eliminating unwanted sound from being reflected back. The result is a perfect, life-like mid-range character, without a hint of unwanted resonances. Radial internal braces, aided by single bolt-through driver technology, enhance cabinet rigidity and provide additional front to back bracing, while maintaining consistent tension for the driver. This in turn reduces excessive vibration from the driver and cabinet combined, ensuring lower coloration across the entire frequency spectrum.
Developed from the renowned C-CAM® material, the new ribbed RST® cone profile has been developed to give incredible rigidity from the lowest possible mass. The result is a stiffer cone and significant reduction in break up modes, to produce a much purer sound overall. Sturdy die-cast alloy chassis’ have been designed incorporating improved venting properties to keep the driver cool as well as reduce internal pressure. The new design C-CAM® Ribbon transducer has been employed to propel high frequency reproduction to well beyond 60 kHz, at least two octaves beyond the threshold of human hearing. Subtle nuances and harmonic content present in high definition 24 bit/192kHz recordings, ensure the full audio experience is faithfully conveyed as intended. Ribbon tweeter technology is very different to traditional domed tweeter designs. Without a traditional voice coil, the moving diaphragm is incredibly light, responding instantly to the smallest level of detail.
Our team of engineers invested many hours evaluating and listening to crossover components selecting those which, in the end, simply sound the best. Polypropylene film capacitors, air core and laminated steel core inductors have been utilized to maintain the best possible signal integrity. High quality gold plated terminals are mounted to a very sturdy die-cast alloy terminal panel.
Beautiful piano finish cabinets combine no less than 11 layers of lacquer with meticulous hand polishing to obtain the perfect mirror shine. Stylish magnetic grilles without visible fixings, add simplicity and refinement to a thoroughly classy overall appearance.
Die cast metal base plinths provide a very sturdy and rigid foundation. Machined metal, adjustable spiked feet are utilised with the floorstanders; hand milled to meticulous quality standards. Solid ‘bullet’ spikes, hand machined from hi-tensile steel and then chrome plated for a fine finish are provided for use on carpeted floors. Non slip rubber pads are incorporated for use on hard or solid wood flooring.
