Now Monoprice has added a budget friendly Audition series to their resume. The Audition line will feature two sizes of tower speakers, the T4 ($200 each) and T5 ($250 each) as well as two bookshelf speakers, the B4 ($100 each) and B5 ($125 each). Rounding out the new Audition speakers is a pair of center channels, the C4 ($130) and C5 ($160). With tech borrowed from their high value Encore series speakers, it's hard to imagine Monoprice could come up with an even higher value series with Audition. Just how low can they go in price and still give you respectable performance? This is something we ask ourselves every time Monoprice introduces a new budget-friendly product and they keep hitting the mark often redefining our expectations.

After owning the Encore T6 towers for awhile these are the best for the money even some that are higher priced They just destroy the polk and klipsch and other lower priced offerings and those companies midrange stuff as well the T6's blow them out of the water

If they measure anything like the larger encore T6 they will measure well very well for the price Monoprice has a pretty good track record on measurements as well
