you might buy decent cheap speakers or spend thousands on audiophile-grade sound.
The Monolith MTM-100 are powerful 50W (100W total) speakers with several input options, including Bluetooth.
Each relatively big tower features two woofers, two passive drivers, and one crisp silk dome tweeter.
The result is big, loud, stylish speakers.
The company promises “audiophile-grade sound,” but do these deliver?
What’s in the Box?
Plus, I love the open design exposing the woofers and tweeters.
You’ll quickly realize the quality we’re working with when you pull these out of the box.
They’re solid, sturdy, heavy, and feel like cold metal boxes ready for tunes.
Overall, there isn’t much to the packaging.
And yes, you’ll absolutely want to drop in the feet because these speakers bump.
Well, unless you plan on usingfoam isolation pads.
Specs as Reviewed?
I actually prefer the clean, stylish look of these speakers.
The MTM-100 has a square design with rounded edges and plenty of weight.
However, Monoprice tells me they’re MDF (medium-density fibreboard) with a black satin vinyl veneer.
MDF is like a dense, durable, acoustic-friendly particle board for those unaware.
As for input and output options, we have a healthy selection for those with various setups.
And, of course, it controls the volume.
Then, everything else sits around the back.
For the price, an included sub would be nice, but that’s just a nitpick.
That’s one of the most important factors, and I’m happy to report that these sound incredible.
Again, I’m impressed.
These sound great and almost overpowered my small office.
Movie playback is enjoyable, with full and spacious sound and great detail.
Then I switched to some music with a little punch or bass and was pleasantly surprised.
I don’t need the windows vibrating.
Plus, you’ll be able to quickly adjust the bass and treble levels with the included remote control.
Then again, I wouldn’t mind that option, either.
If you need more bass, Monoprice hasplenty to choose from.
Quickly plug it into the sub-output on the back of the Monolith speakers, and you’re set.
