The updated line-up claims to include trickle-down technology from the company's flagship Platinum series and recent Silver RX refresh.
The seven new Bronze BX models - priced from £200 - all feature C-CAM (Ceramic-Coated Aluminium/Magnesium; a very light but rigid alloy) drivers, single-bolt driver fixings, improved crossovers, HiVE II reflex ports and magnetic grilles.
Upgrades to tweeters, midrange and bass drivers
Monitor Audio claims to have optimised the C-CAM tweeter design "to deliver higher sensitivity, greater detail and a wider bandwidth beyond 30kHz, " plus "a smoother, more accurate response".
Greater accuracy is also promised from the C-CAM bass drivers, with the C-CAM midrange drivers also claiming a wider response. Monitor Audio adds: "With improved voice-coil design and more agile motor assemblies, we've smoothed the off-axis response for more articulate mid-band detail and natural voice timbre".
The upgrades crossovers, meanwhile, include higher-grade components and new short-path PCB layouts, while those HiVE II reflex ports - first seen on the RX and Platinum ranges - have rifle-grooved interiors to speed air from the cabinets. This is designed to offer a cleaner bass response.
Another RX-derived feature is the single bolt-through drivers. By being secured on a single rigid bolt (fixed to the inside back panel of each speaker), BX drivers are not fixed to the front baffle, and cannot transmit sonic-sapping vibrations.
