Monoprice® Updates
Home Theater Category with Four Great-Sounding Audio Offerings
E-Tailer Continues
to Deliver Premium Audio at Fair Prices with New Retro Hybrid Tube Amp, Two Bookshelf
Speaker Lines and an Upgraded 5.1 Home Theater System
Rancho Cucamonga, Calif. (Oct. 20, 2015) – Continuing its dedication to engineering best-in-class,
low-cost audio products, Monoprice, a
leading provider of high-quality and affordably priced consumer electronics and
accessories, announced today the addition of its
first Retro Hybrid Tube Amp with Bluetooth®, a new line of Select Series Bookshelf
Speakers, a new collection of Bluetooth Bookshelf Speakers, and an upgraded Select
5.1 Channel Home Theater Satellite Speakers and Subwoofer system to its growing
audio category. Staying true to its belief that excellent audio shouldn’t break
the bank, Monoprice built each product to offer sleek designs and amazing sound
quality at surprisingly low price points rarely seen in high performance audio.
“While
delivering superior sound quality is the goal of any home audio system, the
reality is that budgets and aesthetics often force consumers to make compromises
in sound performance. At Monoprice, you don’t have to make sacrifices as our
offerings deliver great sound, beautiful aesthetics and desirable technologies
at incredibly low prices,” said Bernard Luthi, president of Monoprice. “Our
team of audio experts and sound engineers spend countless hours perfecting each
speaker to ensure they meet our high standards of product excellence. As a
trusted destination for consumer technology, we remain committed to developing audio
solutions that offer the best sound at price points accessible for everyone.”
Following
a recent refresh of its headphone category, Monoprice’s newest audio offerings consist of the $199.99 Retro
Bluetooth Stereo Hybrid Tube Amp System;
$59.99 and $99.99 Select Series Bookshelf Speakers; $229.99 Bluetooth Bookshelf Speakers with USB; and $199.99 Select 5.1 Channel Home Theater Satellite Speakers and
Subwoofer system.
Retro Bluetooth Stereo Hybrid Tube
Amp System ($199.99):
The
system features a modern-meets-retro tube amp with a sophisticated piano black
and chrome design. Blending classic looks with modern streaming capabilities,
the tube amp allows users to pair their music and listen wirelessly with its
built-in Bluetooth connection. It also adds depth and warmth to a typically sterile
digital listening experience and significantly improves quality of sound,
making music sound less compressed and processed. For under $200, the system
also consists of two 4-inch, 2-way chamfered Select Series speakers and two 10 foot
braided 14AWG speaker cables. The tube amp is available as a standalone
component for $149.99.
Select
Series Bookshelf Speakers ($59.99, $99.99):
These loudspeakers featuring a modern design produce a
large soundstage with acoustic transparency and sonic clarity. Whether used as stereo
speakers or part of a multi-channel 5.1 or 7.1 home theater system, the Select
Series Bookshelf Speakers deliver a wide frequency response and sophisticated
sound quality regardless of the source. Four- and 5-inch bass drivers deliver
warm yet punchy bass, and 1-inch silk dome tweeters produce well-defined high
frequencies with even the lowest listening level vocals coming off pronounced
and intelligible.
Bluetooth
Bookshelf Speakers with USB ($229.99):
These 200-watt, compact yet versatile Bluetooth desktop
speakers produce powerful, high performance sound without the need for a
subwoofer. Listeners will enjoy crystal clear wireless streaming audio through
PC, Mac, CD, DVD players and mobile devices thanks to a built-in 24-bit
digital-to-audio convertor with a resolution up to 96kHz. A 6.5-inch driver and
1-inch silk dome tweeter generates a smooth frequency response that sounds
natural listening to all genres of music with 200 watts of power. An active
crossover ensures a smooth fade between highs and lows, and two dual RCA inputs
allow for a versatile arrangement of audio sources. The system comes with an included
wireless remote to select sources, adjust volume, bass and treble, and control
playback from Bluetooth-enabled devices.
Select 5.1 Channel Home Theater
Satellite Speakers and Subwoofer ($199.99):
Those
who appreciate the current Premium 5.1 Channel Home Theater System with
Subwoofer (10565) will fall in love all over again with Monoprice’s upgraded Select
5.1 Channel Home Theater Satellite Speakers and Subwoofer—a refreshed system
boasting new features and functionality with incredible sound quality. Replacing
the original 10565, the system includes five, 3-inch, two-way satellite
speakers and an 8-inch, 200-watt subwoofer to deliver deep and rich
high-fidelity music for extensive listening. High frequencies are crisp while midrange
and vocals are pronounced and defined. Input configurations include a stereo
line, LFE mono and speaker level.
In
the coming weeks, Monoprice will launch a new series of In-Wall Speakers, consisting
of eight carbon fiber driver options, for audio enthusiasts and installers. For
