    Monolith Encore T6

    I have a pair of these speakers. Running them in a 2-channel setup with a Yamaha A-S801. Very pleased with the sound. What are your thoughts on the speakers? Are any of you listening to them in your rig? Two thumbs up, in my opinion.:):)

    Perlisten D212s vs JTR Captivator RS1

    ...D215s. So rather than getting D212's or RS1's I went with the D215s's. They fit in my room fine, they aren't really any deeper than the Monolith V12's THX Ported subs I use now and I have plenty of height and width space. At least I will feel comfortable that I got something that really is...

    Healp with a set up!

    that's not apples for apples comparison. MK442 equivalent would be Audition C4, which has the same sensitivity (85.4dB)

    SVS PB-1000 Pro or Monolith M-12 for Sony STRHD590

    Both great subs, but I would go with the Monolith. It does have a performance advantage in the low end. But it is much larger and heavier.

    Klipsch RP-1400SW 14" at $700 or RSL 12S 12" at $800 or Monolith M15 used $750. Who wins?

    I am curious in what way it the 12s beats the Monolithj? Thanks

    Definitive Technology Descend DN15 15" Subwoofer Review

    Very interesting review, and it's interesting to read your note on testing vs the Monolith SW15. You mention that there are definite differences between the two subs, but in a typical room how much of those differences do you think would be audible, or is it a "different strokes" situation...

    Building a 7.2.4 cinema in basement and need some guidance

    If you’re implying that I don’t know monoprice is the parent company of monolith that’s incorrect. If it’s just because I’m sometimes a jakkass well fair enough.

    RSL 12s or Emotiva XS15

    Thanks I’ll take a look at those also, you just made it more complicated

    699 for the Pioneer ?? I paid 1200 for mine when it came out....where do you see that, and if its legit, buy it now !!

    Klipsch RP-1400SW 14" at $700 or RSL 12S 12" at $800 or Monolith M15 used $750. Who wins?

    Didn't say anything about one "beating" the other....That Monolith performs well. Both were reviewed here, and the RSL is 500 dollars cheaper when not being sold as used. Personally, I would go with the RSL.

    Marantz Cinema 30 AVR to Replace the SR8015

    Gene, for some people, it doesn’t matter what the AVP and amps are. As long as they are labeled “AVP” and “amps” and not labeled “AVR”, the AVP/amps will automatically sound better. :D That’s how they think. :D

    Choosing a New Processor After XMC-1 Woes

    For him, I think the AV7706 is his best bet. I bet there would be no audible benefit for him if he bought the AV 10 over the 7706.

    Monolith 13" vs 15" V2 (Measurement Discrepancies?)

    Your mistake is closing one port. When you do this the woofer is misaligned. There is only one optimal alignment in every speaker design. If you close the ports the box is too big and misaligned. If you close one port then you push it towards those dreadful extended bass alignments. You also...

    Did I make a bad decision...

    I had a Monolith 15 v2, and it was a solid performer. But honestly, the Ultra X13 gave me some ear-to-ear grins too. It's no slouch in the sound department. Yeah, I've seen the CEA numbers too, and while the Monolith 15 might edge out a tad, the X13's no pushover. Anyway, if you can't make the...

    Subwoofer Performance Tuning

    Thanks! I'm running the sub in extended mode with all ports open. I've remeasured with the monolith only, which is the green line. Can I do better?

    Which do you recommend?

    I would go with the M-215 over the Monolith or SVS 16" subs. But it would be better to get multiple good subs instead of one single powerful sub, at least if sound quality is the priority.
