Room-Filling Dynamics with Refined Precision
The Monitor Audio Bronze 500 stands as the flagship of the Bronze 6G floorstanding range, fusing powerful performance with elegant design. Each speaker employs dual 8″ C-CAM mid/bass drivers and a 1″ C-CAM Gold Dome tweeter with a Uniform Dispersion (UD) waveguide, delivering impactful bass, lush midrange, and clear, expansive highs through its 2.5-way bass-reflex design. The HiVe II rear ports ensure smooth airflow and tight bass even in confined listening rooms.
Sturdy Build with Sophisticated Detailing
Constructed with visually striking proportions—just under 40 inches tall—the Bronze 500 comes with steel outrigger feet (with both carpet spikes and rubber pads) for rock-solid placement. Its magnetic, acoustically transparent grille and hexagonal dispersion pattern offer a premium, furniture-friendly aesthetic. Premium internal components—such as Pureflow silver-plated copper cabling and bi-wire terminals—ensure clean signal transmission and long-lasting performance.
