At Tannoy, we've been synonymous with ‘The Voice of the Artist’ for around 100 years, and our Super Gold Monitor (SGM) range directly reflects that heritage. These three loudspeakers represent a modern evolution of the classic Super Gold designs, renowned for their pivotal role in shaping the sound of music in professional studios during the 1970s and 1980s. 

Our original Super Gold monitors were not merely speakers; they were trusted tools in countless recording studios around the world. These monitors were the arbiters of sound for engineers mixing and mastering iconic albums, from rock anthems to pop classics, during an exceptionally fertile period of music production. Their unerring accuracy and remarkable clarity ensured that what was heard in the control room was precisely what listeners would experience on their records.

Today, our reimagined and modernised Super Gold Monitor series, comprises three distinct models: the SGM 10, SGM 12, and the flagship SGM 15; the numerical designation denotes the diameter in inches of each speaker's proprietary Dual Concentric driver.

The SGM 10 is our most compact offering, featuring a 10-inch Dual Concentric driver. It provides exceptional clarity and precise imaging, making it an ideal choice for smaller listening spaces where detailed and accurate sound reproduction is paramount. It delivers a remarkably full sound for its size, without overwhelming a more intimate room.

Stepping up, the SGM 12 incorporates a 12-inch Dual Concentric driver. This model strikes an excellent balance, offering deeper bass extension and greater dynamic capability than the SGM 10, making it wonderfully versatile for medium-sized rooms. For those who desire a more authoritative low-end presence and a wider dynamic sweep, the SGM 12 provides a tangible upgrade.

At the pinnacle of the range is the SGM 15, equipped with our largest 15-inch Dual Concentric driver. This model is designed for the most demanding environments and discerning ears. The larger driver provides the widest bass response, the highest maximum sound pressure levels (SPLs), and the most expansive dynamic range of the series.

For larger listening rooms, or for individuals who demand the most impactful SGM sound available, the SGM 15 truly shines, allowing the music to breathe with unparalleled scale and realism. Upgrading through the range brings progressively greater bass extension and dynamic headroom, ensuring that you can select the perfect model to match your room and listening preferences.

Regardless of size, each Super Gold Monitor speaker benefits from our time-refined Dual Concentric driver technology, featuring modern ferrite magnets with copper demodulation rings for superior performance. Our cabinets are meticulously constructed and reinforced with internal bracing and include our Differential Materials Technology (DMT) for extreme rigidity. Practical features like front-firing bass ports and a front-mounted energy control panel allow for fine-tuning to your room acoustics, wherever you are in the world.

The Super Gold Monitor range is our continuing commitment to delivering accurate, uncoloured sound, built with an unmistakable British flair and a nod to a world of legendary albums created on their predecessors.
