It improved the overall performance of my Home theater for both movies and music. The wife did not even notice when I swapped out the smaller sub for the monolith. So its definitely meets the WAF. I do hear an audio hum or ticking hum when at idle. I need to call monoprice to see if this is normal. But overall I would recommend to all for the best value for a intro subwoofer. My neighbors would hate me if I got the 12 inch version.

Great design. Do your research and compare. Best bang for your buck from reputable sources and I hear why!

These have accurate time and pitch and they are very fast.

Looking for a near turn key solution to add bass to Magnepann MMGs which stand atop the woofers--on a low budget. Old woofers were 200# each, homemade six cubic foot (internal) boxes with NHT1259 drivers. That system was better than these, but took up a lot of space! And ugly, my box work was less than exemplary.
The Monoprice woofers look nice enough, have reasonable transient response (better than my ancient Paradigm 15 and a Cerwin Vega 15) and were easy to set up and sound pretty clear, but not NHT1259 huge-box good. Still run a 7 cubic foot internal sealed cylinder with a 15" Dayton woofer which helps the transient response in this system.
Verdict? I'll likely keep these Monoprice woofers, with some noted bass smear.
Running them sealed!
Initial impression, I think four stars is close to warranted for these Monoprice woofers--having an amp, enclosure, and driver at a good price with decent sound.

Super nice from start to finish. Shipped/arrived fast. A+ on packaging. I felt like it was xmas morn reaching into santas giant toy sack while wearing his white gloves to pull this out of the box. Super happy with performance. Im no audiophile but love ear candy hifi sound and base and this thing is it. I cant imagine what uour 12? would do to my house if utilized at the pearcing decibles which would warrant buying one. I wish it came with some instructions on ?auto? setting for connectivity. Im a nube with subs and had to research why it wouldnt detect volume levels from my receiver unless loud (common problem). I leave on ?on? and it always stays connected no prob.

Excellent sound addition to my setup. Experiencing the low frequency rumble previously missing from my prior subwoofer in a relatively small cabinet.

I was looking at the 12 and 13 inch Monolith Subs to go with my HSU 12 inch sub that is located in the back of the room and put the 10 inch Monolith in the front to the room beside my LF speaker but I am glad I got the 10 inch sub because this SW sends out a PUNCH - Well worth the money and compares with quality and sound to any other sub out there - Very happy with my purchase

Replaced a 12" older Klipsch sub and the difference is amazing.

very fast sub that can keep up with Dave Lombardo playing the doing the double bass. Also, very smooth for classical music and movies. Just don?t think about it too much, you can?t go wrong with this subwoofer. Thank you Monoprice for a wonderful product.

Great subwoofer with clean bass
