Flagship three-way sound built to last a lifetime
The Monitor Audio Gold 300 5G sits at the top of the Gold 5G range as a true three-way floorstander. It borrows premium driver technology from Monitor Audio's flagship Platinum II speakers and pairs it with a heavily braced cabinet, so it delivers real authority in medium to large rooms. Sold as a pair.
Why You'll Love It
- Effortless authority from 30 Hz to 50 kHz. Two 8" bass drivers and rear-firing HiVe II ports give the Gold 300 the punch to fill a larger room, while the top end stays crisp and open.
- Flagship driver technology. The MPD high-frequency transducer and RDT II bass cones come straight from Monitor Audio's more expensive designs, so detail and dynamics stay composed at any volume.
- Finished like fine furniture. A soft-touch top trim, magnetic grilles and gold-plated bi-wire terminals arrive in Piano Black, Satin White or Piano Ebony.
Under the Hood
- MPD high-frequency transducer. Monitor Audio's MPD tweeter delivers articulate, extended high frequencies that stay supremely smooth.
- RDT II sandwich cones. The dual 8" bass drivers use a thin C-CAM skin over a Nomex honeycomb core with a woven carbon fibre back, for a cone that is stiff, light and well damped.
- Dual HiVe II ports. The rear HiVe II port system smooths airflow for tighter bass and improved transient response.
CHT Insider Verdict
The Gold 300 5G is a floorstander you buy once and keep for decades. It rewards a capable amplifier and a room with space to breathe, repaying both with a big, composed and detailed sound across music and film. For a serious two-channel or front-stage build, this is Monitor Audio at its most confident.
Pro Tip: The Gold 300 drops to 3.5 Ω and likes 100 to 250 W, so give it an amplifier that is happy driving a 4 Ω load. That headroom is what lets the dual 8" drivers stay tight at high volume.
