Monitor Audio Bronze 2 Speakers (Pair) (Walnut)

Product Information

Do you have a subwoofer in your system? Great. Then your speakers are small. Before you get all upset, read on. This is one of those audio myths whose time has come to be busted. To understand why, we need to talk about Bass Management. Also i have listened them for about while and for comparison the jbl' speakers was brand new from the box with no extra time to settle. I even upgrade Yamaha's firmware and even perform factory reset but still no expected sound. I repeat bass and treble is on the max level. I have no room to play less because sound is flat I even played with speakers positions.... Nothing changed. Im hopeless If someone ask why you don't return them simply i can't because im from Macedonia and i buy my hifi from UK. A better and more practical approach came after studying human perception. The mechanisms that we use to determine the direction of arrival of sound depend on the frequency. At high frequencies the wavelength of sound is small and so sound coming from the side is shadowed by our head. That creates a level difference between the sound reaching the ear closest to the source and the ear on the other side. Our brain analyzes these level differences and produces an estimate of where the sound is coming from. But at lower frequencies, the wavelength of sound gets longer and our head is not large enough to produce a level difference at the two ears. Instead, we analyze the difference in time of arrival of sound at the two ears. Sound arrives first at the closest ear and we use that to determine the direction. But even that ability fails us below about 80 Hz. The wavelengths get very large and it was found in listening tests that 80 Hz is the frequency below which most people can not localize the direction of sound. Big enough to sound special but small enough to fit in, the Monitor Audio Bronze 200 suits the widest range of spaces.

Another thing that greatly impressed me was the level of intergration between the bass/mid driver and tweeter. The highs and lows sound like they are coming from a single source, rather than two and the soundstage is very convincing. Only when you've done all that would I consider changing the speakers. Most hi-fi buffs agree that you start with the sources, then move down the chain, finishing up with the speakers.Currently, Monitor Audio has more than 300 product models. Monitor Audio has been integrating stereo and surround sound systems and a series of acoustically matched speakers so that it can have super high-quality sound in-home and outdoor surrounds. Because of excellent quality and affordable prices, Monitor Audio’s products have been sold worldwide. Integration of high-end technology, quality as gold Monitor Audio gives this affordable range its own subwoofer, which means it's one of the brand's less advanced models. There's none of the Silver Series' mic-assisted automatic room EQ on the Bronze W10, but the 10in driver/10in passive radiator design, trio of sound presets, and claimed 220W grunt, make it far from a basic bass-bin. Monitor Audio Bronze 2 has a Bass Reflex type cabinet and a MDF/Wood-grain vinyl finish. Bass Reflex type loudspeakers (aka Ported, Vented or Reflex Port) have enclosures that uses a port, hole or vent cut into the cabinet. Ported designs are generally more efficient than the Sealed designs. This doesn’t mean that they won’t react adversely to aggressive recordings or forward-sounding partnering equipment. There’s enough transparency here to show exactly what’s going on further up the system chain, so it pays not to cut corners with the rest of your set-up.

Next, we come to Bronze BX’s big daddy, the BXW-10 active subwoofer. It’s equipped with a new 10in C-CAM long-throw driver and a 200W Class-D power amplifier, while on the outside the sturdy build quality, living-room friendly looks and surprisingly diminutive sealed cabinet ooze style and quality without making huge demands on your space. Lightning in a bottle. How do you trap it and, perhaps more importantly, how do you keep it bottled up? Monitor Audio’s popular Bronze speaker range, now in its sixth generation, makes for a particularly good case study.

Another dimension to your movies

Fast forward almost two decades, 6th Bronze generation is about to come to the market and I found myself looking at the nicely discounted Bronze 2 of 5th generation. I really wanted to revisit the budget offering of this British manufacturer so two days later I took them out of the box, and two weeks later I bring you this review. BUILD AND FEATURES Like its predecessors, the BR2 works best when placed quite close to a wall. This helps to fill out the mid-bass octave nicely, though on the other hand, it also creates some unevenness further up in the midband. The Monitor Audio Bronze 2 is a speaker that is popular for its excellent sound quality and sleek design. It has a two-way configuration with a 6.5-inch C-CAM cone bass driver and a 1-inch C-CAM gold dome tweeter, which deliver a balanced and detailed audio experience. Sensitivity90dB of Monitor Audio Bronze 2 is an average sensitivity for stereo speaker so it is neither easy nor difficult to drive Sensitivity wise.
