Designed to serve the demanding needs of professionals in recording, broadcast, and postproduction environments, the TANNOY GOLD 7 : 6.5" POWERED STUDIO MONITOR (SINGLE) is a 300W Dual Concentric studio reference monitor that provides an accurate, uncolored representation of your audio. The Dual Concentric driver ensures a near-perfect point source, preserving the tonal character and harmonic structure of program material as no discrete-driver system can. Great for recording, editing, mixing, or mastering, GOLD 7 offers numerous enhancements including a front-firing bass port, which allows you to place your monitor close to a wall without issue, and high- and low-frequency adjustments to further tailor your sound. The GOLD 7 features continually active XLR and 1/4" inputs, allowing you to connect two audio sources simultaneously. For a simplified setup, you can connect a stereo signal to the 3.5mm TRS input, use the L/R switch, and pass thru to the 3.5mm Monitor Link port, which connects to an additional monitor. A power cord is included.

Dual Concentric

At the heart of the GOLD 7's superb performance, you will find an all-new iteration of the legendary Tannoy Dual Concentric Driver technology. With seven decades of refinement behind it, the Dual Concentric driver represents a near-perfect point source, preserving the tonal character and harmonic structure of program material as no discrete-driver system can. The benefits are immediately obvious with flat response, controlled dispersion, and a wider sweet-spot in both the horizontal and vertical planes.

Point Source Tulip Waveguide

By centrally locating the high-frequency unit of the Dual Concentric configuration, GOLD 7 acoustically replicates the single point sound source, delivering exceptionally natural performance with an incredibly wide stereo image sweet-spot. Delivery is further enhanced by the implementation of a highly-innovative point source Tulip Waveguide with symmetrical dispersion, which provides a broad soundstage with remarkably focused and accurate stereo imaging.

Great for Any Placement

The GOLD 7 comes equipped to function in a wide variety of environments. HF trim control and a rear-panel filter switch are provided to adapt the monitor's low-frequency characteristics for the effects of boundary conditions.

Class-AB Bi-Amplifier

• The duty of any amplifier is to take a small input signal and turn it into a louder output that maintains the characteristics of the original signal, and to be large enough to meet the demands of the loudspeaker it drives. 
• While Class-A amplifiers sound great at low volumes, they waste a tremendous amount of power that is lost as heat when asked to output hundreds of watts. And even though Class-B amplifiers are much more efficient, they tend to bring a great deal of distortion to the mix. 
• A Class-AB amplifier combines the linear performance of Class-A with the higher efficiency performance of Class-B, producing a much better amplifier design for loudspeakers used in critical listening environments.

Flexible Connectivity

GOLD 7 allows you to connect up to 2 audio sources simultaneously thanks to its continually-active XLR and TRS inputs, and assign Left or Right when connected to a 3.5mm TRS jack plug. Switchable intelligent signal-sensing circuitry is included, ensuring that when your system is not in use, your monitors switch into an environmentally friendly power-saving standby mode.
