Connecting Your Gold GS Loudspeakers

You will notice that when you unpack your loudspeakers, there are plastic terminal caps in the terminals where the speaker cable connectors should go. These can be simply removed by placing a thin, flat object underneath them and carefully levering them free.

All of the Gold GS Series loudspeakers (except the GS FX) can be either single or bi-wired/bi-amped. Monitor Audio always recommends bi-wiring your loudspeakers for improved sound quality. (see page 10 for further information)

Please see for further information:

If you are connecting your speakers in a bi-wire, or bi amp format, please remove the terminal links. Do this by unscrewing the red and black terminals slightly and removing the link. Connect the speaker as illustrated on the opposite page.

You can also bi-amp your loudspeakers. This is carried out in the same way as bi-wiring except instead of using one amplifier to power all of the drive units/tweeter in the speaker; you are using one amplifier to drive the treble (tweeter) and the other amplifier to drive the mid/bass sections. If you are intending to do this, please consult your local hi-fi dealer for their recommendations for amplifier rating.

Standing tall with a sleek cabinet design, the GS60 incorporates dual 6.5-inch C-CAM (Ceramic-Coated Aluminum Magnesium) bass drivers, which provide deep and precise bass response. The 4-inch C-CAM midrange driver ensures that vocals and instrumentals are rendered with remarkable clarity and detail, while the 1-inch gold dome tweeter delivers smooth high frequencies. The GS60's innovative "HiVe II" bass reflex port technology enhances low-frequency extension and reduces turbulence, making for an immersive listening experience.

The GS20 serves as a compact yet powerful bookshelf speaker, offering versatility and performance in a smaller footprint. Despite its size, the GS20 features similar driver technology to the GS60, including a 5.5-inch C-CAM bass driver and a 1-inch gold dome tweeter. This model is ideal for smaller rooms or as part of a surround sound system, delivering exceptional sound quality without overwhelming the space. The speaker's advanced design also includes a rear-firing bass port, allowing it to produce richer bass notes without distortion.

Completing the lineup, the GS10 is designed as a stand-mount speaker, perfect for limited spaces or as part of an audio system. With a 5-inch C-CAM bass driver and a 1-inch gold dome tweeter, the GS10 emphasizes precision and detail in sound reproduction.
