Description

Description Freakuence!
Beautifully finished and sturdy monitors. For those who love a powerful bass. The midrange is clean… neutral and accurate.
Details
Damage to the stands—see photos. Easy to touch up (unfortunately, we didn’t have any white paint).
General description
The Monitor Audio Gold 100 5G is a passive bookshelf speaker from the British brand Monitor Audio, part of the 5th-generation Gold series. This stand-mount speaker combines a 6½-inch mid/bass driver with the MPD high-frequency transducer and is housed in a carefully designed cabinet featuring a HiVe II port on the rear. The Gold 100 5G delivers a soundstage that sounds surprisingly spacious for its size.
In terms of sound, the Monitor Audio Gold 100 5G delivers a soundstage with rich mids, warm, full bass, and high frequencies with fine detail but without harshness. The dynamics are impressive; even at higher volumes, the sound remains smooth and controlled, with a vivid stereo image that clearly positions instruments and voices. This speaker requires a fair amount of power from the amplifier to reach its full potential—partly due to its lower efficiency—but in return promises a listening experience full of nuance and emotional depth.
If you’d like to listen to the Monitor Audio Gold 100 5G, you can schedule a listening session in one of our listening rooms to experience the sound, stereo image, and level of detail for yourself. Or would you like to compare it with other bookshelf or stand-mount speakers? We’d be happy to discuss trade-in options so you can find the perfect match for your amplifier and musical tastes.

Background information
The Monitor Audio Gold 100 5G speakers are the result of decades of audio innovation. They feature RDT II cones for exceptional clarity, combined with MPD tweeters for precise high frequencies. The cabinet is made of sturdy, wood-finished MDF, designed to minimize unwanted vibrations. Internal PureFlow silver wiring ensures a pure signal path. Design and engineering are handled by Monitor Audio’s in-house team in the United Kingdom. Their focus is on precision and musical authenticity, using materials carefully selected for their sonic qualities.
Brand history
Monitor Audio was founded in 1972 by Mo Iqbal in a small factory in Teversham, near Cambridge, England. The first loudspeaker the company produced was the MA1, assembled by hand by Iqbal and a small team of engineers. Over the years, the company reached several important milestones, including the introduction of the Platinum series in 2007. In 2016, Monitor Audio expanded its portfolio by acquiring Roksan, an audio equipment manufacturer.

What is the frequency response of the Gold 100 5G?

The –6 dB frequency response ranges from approximately 40 Hz to 50 kHz.

Reviews & awards | Monitor Audio Gold 100 5G

Hi-Fi News

: Laboratory measurements show that the 5G version of the Gold 100s has a realistic sensitivity of around 84.5 dB instead of the advertised 86 dB. The bass extends down to about 44 Hz (-6 dB), but with the included ear tips in place, the bass response is warmer and the roll-off is less steep.

Alpha Audio

: The build quality is praised as exceptional, and the cabinet design is sleeker than that of previous models, which should fit better in the living room. The speakers are well-balanced, the sound is refined, and voices sound very natural, without harsh “s” sounds or overemphasis.

Testberichte.de / LowBeats

: The Gold 100 G5 receives a “sehr gut” (very good) rating; the reviewer describes the sound as powerful, transparent, and rich in bass, with clear vocals and a perfectly crafted MDF enclosure. A drawback mentioned is that the speakers require sufficient power and that their placement (distance from walls) significantly affects the sound.

HIFI.nl

: The speakers surprise with a rich, deep sound that you wouldn't necessarily expect from a bookshelf model. The high end is praised for being fast and detailed, giving the Gold 100 5G extra prestige among audio enthusiasts.

StereoNET

: The speaker is exceptionally smooth, refined, and sophisticated, especially in the high frequencies; the tweeter is described as “a gem,” possibly the best in its price range. The midrange/bass driver matches the tweeter in quality, with decisive control over the crossover; the cabinet is unobtrusive and does not interfere with the sound, which is viewed positively.

CD

De Compact Disc (CD) kwam zoals de meeste uitvindingen niet uit de lucht vallen. Na de uitvinding van de laser in 1958 werd in 1961 het eerste octrooi voor optisch leesbare schijven ingediend. In 1972 werden de eerste digitale videoplaten geïntroduceerd. Na een flop van Philips kwam de fabrikant in 1979 samen met Sony met de eerste cd, wat erop stond weten wij niet maar in 1982 kwam de eerste cd voor de markt uit, het was het album Visitors van ABBA. In dit jaar kwam de eerste speler beschikbaar en zo begon de verdrijving van de lp uit de markt. Velen hebben hun lp’s letterlijk bij het vuil gezet… sommige bezoekers zien wij nog steeds balen als ze dit vertellen. Heb je cd’s, geniet er vooral nog eens van, ze hebben immers geen oneindige levensduur.

CD

The Compact Disc (CD), like most inventions, did not appear out of thin air. After the invention of the laser in 1958, the first patent for optically readable disks was filed in 1961. The first digital video records were introduced in 1972. After a flop by Philips, the manufacturer, together with Sony, released the first CD in 1979. We do not know what it contained, but in 1982 the first CD was released for the market, it was the album Visitors by ABBA. In this year the first player became available and so began the elimination of the LP from the market. Many have literally thrown their LPs in the trash… we still see some visitors being disappointed when they tell us this. Velen hebben hun lp’s letterlijk bij het vuil gezet… sommige bezoekers zien wij nog steeds balen als ze dit vertellen.
