Decent deal, same price as September.

Shipping is $350 for me + you will need a truck with a lift gate so an additional $180. $530 shipping kills it for me.

Great sub though.

Definitely a YMMV situation, but I didn't pay for a lift gate on my sub order from earlier this year. They didn't even ask. FedEx just dropped it off in front of my porch and that was that.

$1,756.58 shipped to me near Cleveland OH. Shipping is $256.69. Liftgate is only required if you have a loading dock or have a forklift. I have neither of those. IF shipping was free this would be tempting.

Yes I recall free shipping as well

When they introduced the V2 models they did a blow out on the remaining V1s

Meaning $800 for a Mono 15 and $600 for a Mono 12 AND it was free shipping ...
At those prices there were guys on AVS that bought subs they didnt even have a need for...Big Grin

But oh well, this is 2026 and sadly that seems to mean a whole new pricing basis

I'm like a split second from pulling the trigger on this. I've been looking at picking up 2 RSL 12S' for a while now but this seems like a better choice aside from it being one physical unit.

Shipping for me shows $281 fedex freight, no mention of lift gates

Much depends on your preference and expectations.
Having set up both, hands down, I would go 12s!
Properly implemented, two subs are better than one.
Performance quality is better.
This is the size of a small frig & weighs much more.
Optimal placement will likely be a challenge.
CS is much better with RSL.
Current sale on dual 12s is less expensive($1416) which includes shipping.

Depends on preference in my opinion

As I said in the first post this is for the person that wants to feel the " pressurization" in movies like Aquaman or several of the Jurassic park movies and like that hard hitting subwoofer performance
Also a better warranty than the RSL units

Here are a couple of reviews from actual owners from the Monolith website

Rated 5 out of 5

"Great experience with the subwoofer. It is on the main floor of my house and I can feel the bass traveling through the floors and walls. It blends in well with my home theater setup adding serous depth"



"This thing is a beast!!!! This subwoofer has the ability to scare people with its power. That happened a few times with my wife and I. The fourth dimension is achieved with the ability to feel every low tone. Make sure you have a friend to help you move it around. Huge just doesn't capture the girth of this beast. As for sound....effortless, clear and powerful. Would buy again. Monoprice support was outstanding!!"

As per the review from the published well know A/V professional this tested better than the SVS PB-16 and comes very close to the PB17 for close to 50% of the price of the PB17
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=J...hTIs&t=10s

Any sub that has this kind of performance will be large and heavy
Thats a given...the PB17 weighs about 170lbs

I'm sure this is an amazing sub but asking for $300 for shipping is steep.

Is this listing the V1 cabinet or the V2, given the V2 launch is what cleared out the V1 stock?

Waiting for the 15" to go on sale to pair with my other one. Although I wish I bought this a few years back when I had the chance.

Just curious, but for the $1500 + $300 shipping some people are quoting, why not just go for something like an 18" sub from PSA that'll drop a few Hz deeper for the same price? Not to mention a 5 year warranty, if I recall. Pay a couple hundred more and you're in the territory of a 21" sub. Only asking because I'm going to be pulling the trigger on a PSA sometime soon.

Another good point.
If your main priority is pressurization, PSA would be a better option ime.
It's a good example, how heavy doesn't mean much.

This has a 5 year warranty also.
Just not worth the gamble if you have to use it.
I know 5 people that have, a pita to say the least!
You can find plenty of examples of this opinion by searching.
Monoprice reviews might be the best.If you search people have claimed they edit them favorably.

One would have to look at the measurements of the two and see what made sense for the money

Here is another detailed video from a published A/V professional where he really digs into the performance numbers of this Monolith M-215
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FlLV91A2P0I

Its a pretty stellar review with volume, range and cleanness of sound

5 year warranty as well on the Monolith subwoofer
