Monitor Audio Bronze 500
The pinnacle of the Bronze series, the Bronze 500s have a larger cabinet housing and powerful 8" woofers to dig into the lowest bass notes. This is the latest series in what has been the most acclaimed British speaker brand the last decade. There’s plenty of insight here, from the way the trailing edges of the piano notes fade gracefully into silence to the Bronze 500s’ ability to track subtle pace changes. It’s a spellbinding performance, out of keeping from what we normally hear at this price level. Designed to perform in the medium to large sized living spaces, the elegant towers will deliver the renowned Monitor Audio sound.
Engineered like hi-end Speakers
Monitor Audio recognise that the first thing our brain latches on to is the high frequencies - and they brought their expensive ceramic aluminum tweeter to this series. The result is a suave rendition. For the most part there are no rough edges here. This is a carefully-honed pair of speakers that brim with refinement
The Aluminum Ceramic bass drivers are light and agile for superb bass control and attack. Find yourself swept along by the energy and a fine sense of drive. Rhythmically, these speakers have a good amount of precision and communicate the momentum of the piece well.

Reviews
"Monitor Audio uses a formula It breaks down to four basic rules. First, make an inexpensive speaker that, in build and finish, looks and feels better than a rival’s pricier offering. Second, use a simpler version of the advanced driver tech trickled from upstream models – in this case, Silver and Gold. Third, make sure that it flatters inexpensive partnering kit but won’t embarrass itself as the quality of the user’s system grows around it. And fourth, voice it for wide consumer appeal (two-channel and home cinema) and not just tweaky audiophiles’ pet obsessions."
"It’s an approach that has given Monitor Audio plenty of plaudits, awards and customers over the years"
