Monitor Audio Gold FX 5G - Surround Speaker - Pair
The Gold FX has been designed to immerse the listener in a compelling surround sound experience. Monitor Audio’s premium driver technology ensures an unforgettable audio performance.
Nothing enhances your home cinema experience like a dedicated surround sound speaker. A compact, discreet design, yet able to pack in two MPD high-frequency transducers and two 4" (100 mm) mid/bass C-CAM drivers, Gold FX can be flush-mounted and can function in either bi-pole or di-pole modes at the flick of switch.
Monitor Audio are masters of the effects speaker, and the Gold FX represents the state of the art.
Strike gold
Now in their fifth generation, the Monitor Audio Gold speakers represent a reference standard in sound and style. Cutting-edge technology derived from the Platinum II range keeps these speakers at the top of their class. MPD (Micro Pleated Diaphragm) tweeters deliver exceptional detail that’s backed up by lifelike mid-range and bass from the hybrid woofer cones. On top of this class-leading sound comes stunning style and finish, which just leaves you to decide the ideal speaker format and colour.
Optimised for home cinema. Di-pole or bi-pole; the choice is yours
Using twin sets of compact, 2-way speakers in a slim, wall mountable cabinet means these speakers are tailor-made for home cinema. At the flick of a switch, you can also change the sound characteristics from di-pole (diffused) to bi-pole (direct) for the exact type of surround sound you require.
Sealed cabinets and included wall mounts for flexible positioning
Unlike nearly all conventional standmount speakers, that need placing away from a wall, the Gold FX speakers are designed to work at their best when placed flat against the wall. Thanks to their sealed cabinet and angled baffles, the speakers work with the wall rather than against it, in providing sound reinforcement. Dedicated and flexible wall brackets are also included.
MPD treble units for stunning top-end resolution
Derived from the flagship Platinum range, MPD tweeters use a Micro Pleated Diaphragm to deliver stunning top-end detail. By pleating the tweeter’s shape, the surface area is increased eight-fold. Working by squeezing the pleats, like a super-fast accordion, gives the treble an incredible response – right up to 50,000Hz. What this means is you get uncompressed harmonics for a spacious and life-like top-end performance.
Bass precision
Using RDT II (Rigid Diaphragm Technology), the bass/mid woofer units deliver total precision. Constructed from a hybrid sandwich of Nomex and woven carbon fibre, they deliver the ideal balance of lightness and rigidity. This means they respond with alacrity to every note – matching the tweeter’s precision to give totally life-like sound effects.
Choice of luxurious finishes
As with the other Gold-Series speakers, the finishes are sumptuous. Choose Dark Walnut or Piano Ebony for a rich, traditional style or Piano Gloss Black or Satin White for a more contemporary appeal. Whichever colour you choose, you can be guaranteed Monitor Audio’s usual immaculate fit and finish. The cabinets also feature flush-mounting, magnetic grilles for the premium style you’d expect from Monitor Audio’s Gold speaker range.
Be fully immersed in cinema sound, with the Monitor Audio Gold FX speakers.
