You would have to go up to the SVS 4000 to get an equivalent sub (output spec wise) to the Monolith 13 THX sub (it may be marketed as a 13" driver, but it's actually a 15"). Yes, it may have an EQ app, but if you already have decent calibration software you don't need to spend the extra money.

[@AG-en5y]

I would be. Curious if you would say same thing if you were to get the PB2000 SVS. It’s a big unfair to compare ported vs sealed box

[@MichelLinschoten]

I have two of them in use in combination with my magnepan Tympani I . For the past 3 years now,it's for the price a sub that does some really incredible performance. In stereo and home theater .. it's been a incredible value for me. I also have 18 inch jbls in the back of my space that will be replaced by 2 more of these. The woofers in the monolith , are insane quality .

Got this for my bedroom during its holiday sale for $450. It's awesome. Have the miniDSP HD hooked up to it for better optimizing the bass. I had to get the SVS isolation feet to decouple from the floor because it was just shaking and vibrating too much shit around the room on the 2nd floor..which felt and sounded nice, but I knew I wasn't getting accurate bass. It's an awesome sub that can really stand with the 12" subs.

Would love to see you test the BIC America F-12, H-100II and PL-200II. They seem to consistently get favorable reviews online but most of the reviews are subjective without graphs. They are all rated down to at least 25hz and everyone seem to subjectively think they do go lower than other subs in their price range so would love to see you confirm that. If so, they would be a good compromise between cost and performance.

[@joentell]

I am interested in trying them also.

[@felixdejesus4442]

I have two subwoofer a 10 inch and a 12 inch monolith on my home theater what do you recommend for a receiver I currently have onkyo tx-rz810

[@Quetzalcoatl0]

Can't agree more! I had the PB-1000, this one will also be enough for most people. Especially when you go dual.

[@jasoncasto910]

I agree. I have a pair of the SVS PB-1000's and I can't believe he doesn't have them in the $500 category.

[@kaamilarshad5249]

You didn't review the RSL speed woofer 10. What about that one

[@wichitafc98]

Hey Joe, how did you setup. how do you setup the setting on the back?

[@joentell]

That would take an entire video to explain

[@VimalKiranK]

hey Joe N Tell, can you please review newly launched HSU VTF-TN1 15" subwoofer ? thanks in advance.

[@HumseHoPayega]

Hi could you please advice that between Q Acoustics QB12 and Monolith 10" THX subs which is better for my new setup ? I am planning to get Denon AVR x 3700H and Q Acoustics 3030i bookshelfs. Thanks

[@joentell]

Haven't heard the Q Acoustics. I can vouch for the Monolith. It's a beast.

[@z32PureHardDance]

I’m having buyers remorse! I bought a Klipsch SPL 150 15” subwoofer for $740 back in November. Now I find out this little guy can have the same amount of output if not more for less? And it’ll dip deep if not more then Klipsch 15!? What!?

[@peaceandrelaxationwithgodscrea]

Thanks Joe , and happy New years

[@Redninja4gaming]

I have a 15"audiopipe 1600watts of max power custom box built (double baffle) 20hz tuned 👌 😎.

[@TheNLHAZE]

WOW I want one of them did you build that sub?thanks in advance.

[@henkiepda]

between this and the svs sb1000 for home cinema? thanks

[@jesterscorner879]

The SB would be a significant step back for HT since it's a sealed sub. The PB would be a better choice but the monolith still has an edge over the pb in terms of deep bass. If you can up your budget another $116 though the HSU Research VTF2 MK5 will outperform both and is arguably the best HT sub under $850 new. Not unless you build your own sub.

[@travismayes23]

how big is this subwoofer? is it as big as the SVS PB 1000 Pro and which one's better out of those two subs? I have a PB 2000 Pro Will the monoprice pair up good with my PB 2000 Pro if I decide to go with that one again which one's better

[@joentell]

This and the PB1000 pro are pretty evenly matched. You could go with either and be happy. I think the PB1000 Pro can play maybe 1hz deeper and a little louder by a few dB in my room. Not a huge difference.

[@hometheaterjoe9489]

Other Joe!! Great work my friend… I’ve been thinking about the THX 13 or the SVS pb 3000. That app and costumer of SVS is hard to pass up. This is actually a very hard decision… appreciate you bruda

[@joentell]

Maybe look up some CEA 2010 data on both and see which specs are most important to you. The app is handy on the SVS, but less important with an AVR since the EQ and levels can be set there.

[@Jay7ona]

do you find the 10 monolith has more output than the sb3k?...can the 3k not go down as deep as the mono 10 having so much more power?

[@Masterslessons]

Joe. I have money burning a hole in my pocket. The V2 is out. More distortion. Would you buy this over a Speedwoofer 10? I have never demoed either of them

[@DJSoulbrother]

You would basically seal it for music, best of two worlds in one sub in other words

[@spons1982]

just followed the link in the description, it's 650 now instead of 500

[@RennieAsh]

Is it enough though? My 3.3x3.7m might need two of those.

[@TheMerriell]

I like 10" subs better because it offers a tighter bottom..I have been a Velodyne subber for many years. I might have to give this a try

[@EUCWayOfLife]

What is the other sub next to this in the beginning with the active woofer and passive radiators? Trevoce12?

[@joentell]

Correct

[@EUCWayOfLife]

@@joentell Would you pick the Monolith 10 over the Trevoce 12 DSP?

[@joentell]

I have them ranked on my subwoofer leaderboard. Http://bit.ly/subwooferleaderboard

[@krislatty1136]

i got 2 and thier crazy in my 14 by 14 room ill hear the windows falling out but not audibly hearing any bass and i just see that as hella cool lol surprised u put them above the sb3000 tho lol

[@stckyjoey1]

I got two also but the second made more things vibrate and I disconnected it until my man cave is ready lol

[@krislatty1136]

@@stckyjoey1 yea if u dont have a room for that it would definately cause problems

[@joentell]

Yeah, it's more a ported vs sealed thing for me. I'm confident the PB3000 would place higher. The SB3000 is still extremely impressive.

[@stckyjoey1]

@@joentell I used the ported part and I think my neighbors were pissed so I need to put insulation in the walls lol

[@wg5768]

Joe,I think you need to shuffle your subwoofer leader board. You can't get a Svs Sb2000 for under 500 dollars anymore.

[@joentell]

Thank you for taking the time to give me a heads up! They came out with the SB2000 Pro after I reviewed the SB2000. Price changes happen and so I try to keep the products in the category that applies to them during the time of review. Otherwise, I would constantly be having to move things around as pricing changes.

[@CoastalEddieUSA]

Have you compared the Monolith 10" THX against the RSL 10s Speedwoofer?

[@joentell]

Haven't tried the RSL.

[@lyzhengyehang1154]

Amazing sub!

[@jaekamacho1416]

got a pair of these monsters a few yrs ago for $400 each using their president's day discount code, best $$ i ever spent. replaced dual 12in klipsch's and it was a huge difference, these bad boys dig deep! best part was i got them the next day at free shipping and oddly enough didn't pay taxes on them, so it was literally $800 flat.

[@joentell]

JEEZ! That must sound awesome.

[@prathibha1230]

Hi Joe, will this work for 2 Channel Stereo? if no then whats you recommendation for 2 Channel Stereo beside's REL as we do not have REL dealer in our country. Thank you for your great videos.

[@joentell]

Pretty much any sub that doesn't use DSP. Can you get any of the OSD Black ones shipped to you? The problem is that DSP adds a delay. If you are using an AVR on integrated amp that can add delay on your main speakers to match the delay on the sub, you'll be ok.

[@prathibha1230]

@@joentell No Even OSD's I cant buy and shipping costs exorbitant, however we have SVS dealer here, so any recommendation on SVS Sub for Music, for my Tube integrated amp. it has no Sub out.

[@davidlewis8124]

What's up Joe I now have two of these 10"… They are sick!!!! Just wondering when these subs will go on sale. Would love to get them for Les than 449.99 This video review is why I now have two of these 10s 🔊🔊🔊✌️

[@davidlewis8124]

WOW nice replying back too 👌👍

[@TimOHea]

Does this sub give you that tight punch for things like gunfire in John Wick type movies?

[@joentell]

YES! I love those movies by the way.

[@TimOHea]

Thats why I like the smaller 8", 10" subs that tight punch for action sequences .. I suggest you do a review of RSL Superwoofer 10s .. then a comparison of that sub with RSL Monolith 10" THX and SVS 3000 mini. Im a new subscriber of yours, I really like all the points you touch on in your reviews and your small apartment 😆

[@joentell]

There are good things with small apartments too. My young kids can't hide from me. Bad thing is I can't hide from them either. 😂
