At one time I had 3 in that room even with 2 I didn't need a sub but with 3 for sure no. My measurements in room they were solid all the way down past 30hz and then with the slow roll of they had I was pulling 20 Hz but that's in a smaller or mid sized room. I don't think they could pull off 20 Hz in a big open room

Haha. Can’t believe Daniel San says no sub needed! Ok, so where’d you put Dan?

Not gonna happen. Anyway, if you want that, it would essentially be just like the Arendal 1723 THX tower, except made with not as high-end materials.

Amusing assumptions.

Amusing assumptions.

No I do believe @shadyJ is right about this unfortunately. The problem the way I see it is that Monoprice already keeps their prices so low even on their premium Monolith line. If they make something too close to the higher lines level of performance for a way lower price then why buy up to the next level?

They'd basically be undercutting themselves

I thought to myself when I tried out the SW-15 from them. This is fairly good sized box about PB 2000 size

Why not put just a lil extra in the driver 3 ports underneath like a Bic PL-300 still make it inexpensive but a lil more then what they are selling now and get it down to 20 Hz or maybe 25 to 27hz with a boost on the upper end?

But then I thought to myself well sh&t why buy from their higher priced lineup I mean why would they want to undercut their higher priced lineup?

shadyJ, how do you know it's not going to happen? We don't know what Monoprice will do in the future.

It's not going to happen. I know many of the key people involved in that project, and their attention is elsewhere.

Based on the level of inventory on their site across Monolith products, I have questions as to whether they continue or not. I sure hope so! And if they continue no idea what's next.

I did secure some of their THX speakers recently and give them a thumbs up if you get a chance. I'm enjoying them and will be keeping them. They still have more of their 365cs and their 460t's which I have but the prices are high at the moment. The large bookshelf version of it is on deal open box right now.

Can't speak to these T6's but I can imagine they would be very good for their price inded.

I seriously doubt they are dropping out of the game. I could be wrong but when you look at the fact that a company say like Power sound Audio is backlogged for months due to orders it's a fancy way for PSA to say basically the same thing. We are out of stock to meet demand.

Same thing with Buckeye amps

Same thing with JTR

Monoprice could be going through the same thing orders have exceeded what they have in stock.

Their just wording it in a different way. Is my take but you never know you could be right tho. Well just have to wait and see

I know this is a T6 thread, but here is possibly a good deal for the 698 depending on how they look.
