The surrounds are going in wall not in ceiling, correct?

Shady has has reviewed every sub in the Monoprice Monolith line. And JTR and SVS and Audioholics has done reviews of RBH subs. All detailed with full measurements. Also Shady wasn't trashing Monoprice he's just stating facts that the Amber line is nowhere near the quality of the Monolith line...

Wow, you should learn to read. The post you quoted never said anything about MONOLITH, you know, the higher performance brand that was NOT what the op was talking about. Monoprice IS cheap gear. Monolith is not.

Saw this on AVS #150 · Oct 3, 2023 Yup. About 300 in shipping and you're all done. To be fair, even RSL is charging for sub returns now....just like everywhere, the days of limitless free shipping to and fro are coming to an end.

The reason to use a Y splitter is because it raises the input sensitivity of the subwoofers amp. This can be helpful when an AVR doesn’t have adequate output. It doesn’t increase maximum output capability, but can help balance the gain structure better. After calibration, most people aim for...

But given that I need them for surrounds, and they will be right behind my seating area, how loud do they need to get? I dont want them to drown out the main LCR speakers. The room is about 15x14, with one side open to a bar area. So not very big in my book.

Ha Have there been an unusual number of failures?

Why the low power monolith amps, tho? Seems only avr level amps.

...and features but costs north of $3K. I also bet we learn that the 30's amps are as good as/better than the 8015 and much better than the Monolith, which are no slight. They give great value for what they are. For me, great value and functionality would be the Monolith HTP-1 with some of their...

That recommendation from @TLS Guy is spot on. That Monolith lineup is a great speaker line and some of the best high end bang for your buck you can ever expect to get. Also the Monolith line measures very neutral and should blend in well with your PSB's

I no longer consider the Klipsch in the race but in the 12" range I would think the 12s is not easy to beat. Why would you take the Monolith 12 over it?

I think the difference in sale prices is that RSL is probably just making margins at Msrp. Monoprice has a completely different structure since they have many more products than RSL.

The differences between v1 and v2 are largely cosmetic. There were a few small changes elsewhere, but not enough to meaningfully impact performance.

My brother needs a good sub. He is considering 16" SVS or Monolith. Could you please give recommendations and reasoning? I personally have the M-215 and love it, so am partial to Monolith, but would just like to hear others' thoughts on it. Thanks

Takes time to build a reputation. Monoprice have several subwoofers with real good measured performance at nice prices on this very site over the years. I've no idea how good or bad Tonewinner is in making subwoofers but I suspect they need some time to prove themselves.

...2 on my back porch and zone 3 on my garage. Everything works as expected when running through the onkyo unit. What I want to do is add a monolith 7x200 to the setup and power LCR and both zones to pull the work off of the receiver but I cannot for the life of me figure out how to set it up...

Looks like an incoming wave of the lowest of the low Chinese junk. When you see Alibaba heavily involved watch out. I would advice Shady not to waste his time.

...TV Mount for Drywall - Slim No Stud Design Holds TVs Up to 100lbs with Nails - Easy Install with No Drilling Required : Electronics On the Monolith towers, I do like those but they are also designed THX style and would need a sub I believe. I have enjoyed those towers. I think the RF7's are...

Those differences won't be audible. It comes down to reliability, and the whole receiver concepts is not a concept that gives any confidence of reliability. I have had the 7705 in use for over 4 years now and it is excellent, reliable and stable. It measures very well also on my bench.

...listens with measurements and no real world experiences. The cea2010 #s don't factor in advantages of LF room gain of sealed vs ported subs. The bass quality of the Monolith sub is not even close to the RBH. Brian Hager had a dual 21 JTR sub and traded for the dual RBH and much prefers the RBH.
