Monitor Audio is proud to announce the launch of the new Gold Series 6G. The all-new, totally redesigned series leaves no detail unrevealed, as Monitor Audio Group delivers the finest, most exhilarating loudspeaker range yet to carry the Gold Series name.
A comprehensive, highly flexible and user-friendly range, Gold Series 6G comprises six distinctive loudspeakers. Each model addresses a clearly defined user requirement, adds innovative acoustic technologies, and is crafted to celebrate and exude the distinctiveness and quality customers expect from the Gold Series.
Building on over three decades of heritage, Gold Series 6G represents the start of an epic new chapter; a new way to experience the joy of sensational sound.
Acoustic Innovation
Monitor Audio’s Gold Series has a long history of introducing innovative acoustic technologies, and this sixth generation is no different. Gold Series 6G boasts a totally new metal cone technology in the form of Hexagonal Diaphragm Technology (HDT). HDT draws on the RDT III cones utilised in the ground-breaking Hyphn and the flagship Platinum Series 3G, which consists of a Nomex® honeycomb layer sandwiched between aluminium and carbon fibre skins. The HDT cone employs a new hexagonal pattern to disrupt symmetries in the cone breakup, creating a cone that shifts the frequency up by 10% compared to the RST II cones found on the Silver Series 7G.
The new cone also utilises Monitor Audio’s proprietary C-CAM technology, which when compared to standard aluminium designs produces a stronger, more fatigue-resistant cone. The result is that the new HDT, C-CAM cones are among the strongest, most piston-like cones Monitor Audio has ever engineered.
The new HDT, C-CAM cones have been utilised across the range, including a new 3-inch mid-frequency driver, a 6-inch bass-mid unit, and 6- and 8-inch bass drivers.
In addition to the HDT, C-CAM cones, key acoustic features include:
- A revised version of Monitor Audio’s MPD III (Micro Pleated Diaphragm) transducer used in both Hyphn and the Platinum Series. This bespoke design delivers precise high-frequency sound with greater consistency, clarity and accuracy. The levels of detail achieved makes music sound more lifelike, crisp and real.
- The Gold Series 6G’s crossovers have been optimised for in-room performance; this is particularly important for the new On-Wall 6G model, where typical usage is closer to Custom Install than traditional Hi-Fi.
Cabinet design
All the Gold Series 6G’s cabinets are designed to form the most rigid structure possible, thus allowing the drivers to perform to their optimum capabilities. A top trim detail on the 100 and 500 models allows the MPD III high-frequency transducer to be placed further up the cabinet, optimising the cabinet edge diffraction on these larger models. This helps deliver consistent and precise imaging across the entire frequency range.
For the first time ever, the new Gold Series 6G boats a man-made ebony veneer. It offers the quality and lustre of real ebony, but with a significant reduced to carbon impact compared to traditional methods of real wood veneered production. The high-gloss black and satin white finishes add a contemporary edge that ensure whatever the environment, Gold Series 6G will fit in seamlessly.

The Gold C250 6G is a compact three-way centre-channel speaker featuring powerful twin 6-inch bass drivers benefiting from the latest HDT, C-CAM cone and powerful motor systems, the latest MPD III high frequency transducer, plus a 3-inch mid-frequency driver that ensures vocals and dynamic passages within movie scores or soundtracks are delivered with utter realism and detail.
Transparent Design Philosophy
The 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 the 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.
Every Monitor Audio product is the result of intense collaboration, drawing on decades of experience within the design team and ensuring that all the elements of performance, technology and design work in harmony. Gold Series 6G is the physical manifestation of this approach.
