Monitor Audio has launched the sixth generation of its popular Bronze Series, featuring a new Uniform Dispersion Waveguide that combines with the company’s signature C-CAM gold dome tweeter for claimed even sound dispersion, improved time alignment and wider directivity.

The two-way, £260 Bronze 50 standmount kicks off the range. Featuring a 140mm C-CAM bass/midrange driver partnered by the aforementioned 25mm C-CAM gold dome tweeter with UD Waveguide, it has a claimed sensitivity of 85dB into 8ohm loads and 62Hz-25kHz frequency response (-6dB). With external dimensions of 281 x 166 x 265mm, it weighs in at 5kg per cabinet.

The second bookshelf option in the range, the £325, two-way Bronze 100 features a larger cabinet – 376 x 231 x 325mm and weighs 7.8kg each. Consequently, the C-CAM bass/midrange driver also increases in size to 205mm, while the tweeter remains the same as the Bronze 50. Quoted sensitivity is upped to 87dB at 8ohm and frequency response is now 52Hz-25kHz (-6dB).

The first in a brace of new floorstanders, the £570, 2.5-way Bronze 200 (above) weighs 12.8kg each with 886 x 166 x 265mm dimensions. It pairs up the 25mm C-CAM gold dome tweeter with two 140mm C-CAM bass/midrange drivers to provide a quoted sensitivity of 88dB (8ohm). Frequency response is 45Hz-25kHz (-6dB).

The larger £770 Bronze 500 floor stander (above) is a 2.5-way system featuring 951 x 231 x 325mm dimensions at 18kg a cabinet. Like the Bronze 100, it combines the 25mm tweeter with the larger 205mm mid/bass driver (although there are two of them). Sensitivity jumps to 90dB (8ohm) while frequency response is 41Hz-25kHz(-6dB).

Completing the range are the Bronze W10 subwoofer (£525), Bronze C150 centre speaker (£175) and Dolby Atmos-enabled Bronze AMS surrounds (£300) for home cinema. All cabinets come in a choice of four finishes – white, walnut, urban grey and black – with bespoke removable grilles to match.
