They don't list specs. Wonder why? Oh, I know why, the state "Monster & THX - two brand names you can trust". Oh no, not again.

Monster Speakers?

If Bose can, why can't Monster.

I wonder how long it will be before Monster Cable starts making crappy, 3rd rate TVs. They apparently make everything else now
