With the GOLD 8 Premium 300-Watt Bi-Amplified Nearfield Studio Reference Monitor, you can experience the pinnacle of audio precision and quality. This high-end monitor is designed to meet the demanding needs of professionals in recording, broadcasting, and post-production environments. Its proprietary 8" Dual Concentric Point Source Technology, a result of seven decades of refinement, offers a near-perfect point source that preserves the tonal character and harmonic structure of your music like no other.
The GOLD 8's superior performance is further enhanced by the integrated design where the speakers and amplifiers are conceived as one. This ensures a seamless, high-quality sound output that is both powerful and precise. The monitor's advanced Klippel analysis and other cutting-edge technologies contribute to its unrivaled performance, making it a worthy addition to Tannoy's historic line of premier reference monitors.
At the heart of the GOLD 8's exceptional performance is the latest iteration of Tannoy's legendary Dual Concentric Driver Technology. This technology, combined with a highly innovative point source Tulip Waveguide, delivers a broad soundstage with remarkably focused and accurate stereo imaging. The result is a flat response, controlled dispersion, and a wider sweet-spot in both horizontal and vertical planes.
The GOLD 8 is designed to function in a wide variety of environments. It comes equipped with HF trim control and a rear panel filter switch to adapt the monitor's low frequency characteristics for the effects of boundary conditions. This makes it a versatile choice for any studio setting.
The monitor's Class-AB bi-amplification combines the linear performance of Class-A with the higher efficiency performance of Class-B, producing a superior amplifier design for critical listening environments. Additionally, the GOLD 8 offers flexible connectivity with its continually-active XLR and TRS inputs, allowing you to connect up to two audio sources simultaneously.
Tannoy's long and storied legacy lives on in the GOLD 8 Dual Concentric Studio Reference Monitor. This monitor is sure to become a classic, trusted reference for every project, whether it's dynamic music content, dialogue, or anything in between. Experience the GOLD 8 and embrace the future of high-quality audio.
