Control-IT Posted April 21, 2019 Share Posted April 21, 2019 Looking at a Monoprice Monlith vs SVS. Both ported 12". Monoprice is about $600 less and online reviews look positive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Amr Posted April 23, 2019 Share Posted April 23, 2019 My experience with Monoprice gear after all these years ... it’s pure junk, zero durability and you get what you pay for ... I only use passive hardware and cables connectors, etc! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It actually has very good reviews and is known to be an excellent sub for the money. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Amr Posted April 24, 2019 Share Posted April 24, 2019 No I don’t have experience with the Mono, am just telling you my general experience with the brand. The last transaction I experienced after a fairly good review of their 8x8 Video Matrix was really bad, the device lasted less than 3 days before it’s completely dead and their support is as trash as their equipment. I agree that $600 is indeed a justifiable amount to save but I would rather spend a bit more for a set-it and forget-it kind of equipment. Of course shit happens and devices do fail, but a well made equipment have a very less likelihood to fail faster. It’s just my 2 cents ... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you want to consider a low price line at least look at: https://www.parts-express.com/bic-formula-f-12-12-475-watt-subwoofer--303-436 That BIC unit performs well. The Dayton units also perform well, but I've had some of the plates burn out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cdepaola Posted April 25, 2019 Share Posted April 25, 2019 Comparing SVS and MonoPrice is like comparing a Gremlin to an Corvette... If your on a budget you can find lightly used SVS subs, I sold one last year for a few hundred bucks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
