In his review for The Ear, journalist Chris Baillie delves into the impressive performance of the Monitor Audio Gold 500 6G speakers, praising their expansive soundstage and precise imaging. Baillie highlights the speakers' ability to deliver a "large and expansive image," with vocals achieving "fabulous presence" and the soundstage extending "beyond the cabinets and forward of them in a solid and often startlingly believable manner." He further notes that the speakers' imaging and instrument placement are "vivid and accurate" without being overly etched, offering a natural yet detailed listening experience.
The Gold 500 6G's innovative design also earns Baillie’s approval. He points out the sleek, screw-free drive units, which are mounted using Monitor Audio's "bolt-through technology" for a rigid, clean aesthetic. The speakers' impressive bass, powered by twin 8-inch HDT C-CAM drivers, combined with the high-tech MPD III tweeter, creates an accurate and full-range sound. Baillie sums up his review by stating, "The Monitor Audio Gold 500 6G is a fine addition to this competitive area of the market."
