Owning the bronze 200 I think they are big enough for medium size rooms, very fast and dynamic so great for watching movies and videogames. All the bass you need, very tight. This is a speaker that is out there, not laid back. For listening to hifi I prefer other speakers to be honest. This speaker was something my wife could handle according to size and looks😂
So difficult to advise without knowing what you want to connect, how much room you have and what sonic character your after and of course budget - but they are a fairly easy drive and a fairly clean sounding speaker - at the entry end of things a WiiM amp would get you started and has all your streaming built in, the excellent mission 778x would be a step up and is a strong performer and Arcam Radia A5 also a solid choice - so many options really!
The 500 will give you more in the low end due to their bigger cabinets and drivers. If you can, I would recommend the 500 as they will provide you with a more dynamic and rich listening experience.
Hi thank you for the info it was helpful. I need to replace my old 5.1 system with newer so Bronze 500s 6g is my choise like you recommended for Left and Right speakers.W10 for sub in the future I have two questions if you can help me please. 1)For center speaker the choise is C150 right? 2)For surround since i dont want to get Wall mounted (FX ) can i use a pair of C100 with stands? Is it a good choise to combine with 500 & c150 for 5.1 Thank you !!!
Thanks for your comment - yes thats right the bronze c150 is the dedicated centre channel in the bronze range. I assume you mean bronze 100 with stands for rears in which case also yes, absolutely, that would work well. As for combining 500 and c150 yes that is fine - the AVR will calibrate accordingly. There is no reason why you couldnt go for monitor audio silver c250 centre - we do recommend keeping the speakers from the same brand so they have similar timbre but given that sonic character carries across the monitor audio rangemixing silver and bronze would also be ok and the centre speaker is so crucial in a 5.1 setup its budget well spent
@@AVHifiCinema Thank you for your reply - since i am going to use them with my yamaha rx-a1080 (right now i have custom speakers 5x250w rms) i assume your proposal for the center speaker C250 is because is in the same watt range as the 500 left/right speakers. My only issue is the "look" is not the same but since the centre is crusial is better choise for sure :) Unless i have to go for 200 series bronze left/right but i beleive are "small" for my AV, i have to check the watt again to be sure. Yamaha says for rx-a1080 - Dynamic Power per Channel (8/6/4/2 ohms) 135 / 165 / 210 / 280 W. Thank you !!!!
Thanks for watching the video and for commenting! Both are great options. I think that the Bronze 500 are a great all round speaker that will work well for a wider variety of different musical genres. Whereas, the Klipsch are definitely more emphatic and energetic in their delivery which will bring certain genres to life, but perhaps that sort of sound will not suit everything so broadly. I hope that helps. Thanks!
