This metal cone material is not only lightweight but also highly resistant to bending, allowing it to move more like a piston. This results in more controlled, precise, and distortion-free sound reproduction. Used across all bass-mid and high-frequency drivers in the Bronze 7G, C-CAM helps ensure a consistent and cohesive audio performance. The smooth frequency transitions and enhanced realism in the soundstage are direct benefits of this technology.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3 data-end=\"3251\" data-start=\"3208\"\u003eAdvanced Tweeter and Crossover Design\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp data-is-only-node=\"\" data-is-last-node=\"\" data-end=\"3881\" data-start=\"3252\"\u003eThe gold dome tweeter, first introduced by Monitor Audio in 1986, has been further refined for the Bronze Series 7G. Now thinner, lighter, and stronger, it includes the UD Waveguide II and a new compression ring, which together improve time alignment and widen sound dispersion. Enhanced venting also boosts performance in the 2–3kHz range, allowing for cleaner, higher-volume playback. The crossover components have undergone hundreds of hours of testing and selection, ensuring signal purity and balanced sound across all frequencies. This meticulous engineering guarantees a highly engaging and immersive listening experience.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eA5+ Integrated Amplifier Specifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"l-content__col l-content__col--1-3-fix\"\u003e\n\u003ctable\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eContinuous Power Output:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e(0.5% THD) 2 channels driven\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e8Ω, 20Hz ‐ 20kHz:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e50W\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e4Ω, 1kHz:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e75W\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHarmonic Distortion:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e80% power, 8Ω at 1kHz: 0.003%\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAnalogue Inputs – Number Of Inputs:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e3 (RCA pairs)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAnalogue Inputs – Signal\/Noise Ratio:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e(A-weighted, ref. 50W, 1V input): 106dB\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAnalogue Inputs – Frequency Response:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e20Hz—20kHz ± 0.2dB\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePhono (MM) Input – Input Impedance:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e47kΩ + 100pF\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePhono (MM) Input – Frequency Response:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e(ref.
