Monitor Audio Silver 500 7G

Ultimate Flagship Performance

As the flagship model in Monitor Audio’s Silver Series 7G, the Silver 500 7G features a luxurious cabinet adorned in Ash, Walnut, Black Oak, or Satin/Gloss finishes. Its refined design, with flush front baffles and no visible screws, creates a timeless visual aesthetic. 
Inside, a three-way system houses a 1″ C‑CAM Gold‑Dome tweeter with UD Waveguide II, a 3″ midrange, and dual 8″ C‑CAM RST II woofers—each engineered for ultra-low distortion and seamless crossover integration. 

Key Features

• 1″ C‑CAM Gold‑Dome Tweeter with UD Waveguide II
  Offers extended dispersion, low distortion, and coherent integration with the midrange. 

• 3″ C‑CAM RST II Midrange Driver
  Featuring hexagonal-dimpled surface technology and neodymium magnet for enhanced clarity and time alignment. 

• Dual 8″ C‑CAM RST II Bass Drivers
  Deliver profound bass down to 27 Hz with speed and control, driven by a 50‑litre cabinet volume. 

• Rear HiVe II Ports with Foam Bungs
  Tuned to optimize airflow and reduce port noise, with optional bungs for flexible placement. 

• Premium Cabinet and Outriggers
  Rigid MDF enclosure with internal bracing, magnetic grille, and spikes or rubber feet on outriggers for stability.

  Listeners frequently report vivid soundstage width and imaging clarity with no listener fatigue—even during extended sessions.

  At 90.5 dB sensitivity and 8 Ω nominal impedance (min ~4.1 Ω), these are easy to pair with Somerset amplifiers from 80–250 W RMS.
