Monitor Audio sure know what I like. Not long ago, they announced their new Gold line of speakers and I'm already drooling. As part of these new additions, they have launched a surround speaker designed fit almost anywhere. Check out the new Gold FX Surround Speaker.
This beautiful and slim design incorporates six drivers (yes, six drivers). The FX features both monopole and bipole modes to better suit any environment - which I consider to be very versatile. If you set it to monopole mode for discrete side or rear sound channels, its front-firing 6 ½" RST® bass/mid-driver and C-CAM® ribbon transducer deliver a wide-band. In dipole mode the FX uses two pairs of side firing 4" C-CAM bass/mid drivers and 25mm C-CAM gold-dome tweeters, combined with the tailored output from the front-firing bass/mid driver to provide a more diffused surround effect.
For better convenience, the Gold FX can be flush-mounted on side or rear walls. Installation is easy by the inclusion of a 'sloppy fit' wall bracket, which allows leveling and adjustment prior to fixing. Let me know what you think about the new Gold FX and don't forget to share this with your friends.
