So, when they released an even better, more powerful line, I really wished I had installed those.

They sounded great, and I had paid just a few hundred for them and a subwoofer. I bought some for a 7.1 system in the dining room. They were glowing, and many of the users had come from using much more expensive speakers. I read the reviews on the Monoprice site. The fact that there is a ton of sonopan in the walls and ceilings probably helps, as does the special foam floor tiles we installed. The savings allowed me to get platforms built and have buttkickers/bass shakers added to each seat, which adds to the overall feel of movies on this room. All my guest are blown away by the sound quality, and then once more when I tell them the total cost of the 14 speakers and two subs. I couldn't be happier with the way the room sounds. Voices seem to come from about where talking heads usually appear on screen - just a little higher than halfway up the picture. Nor does dialogue appear to come from below or above the screen as in the case of a single speaker placed above or below a large screen like this 120'. I took a gamble with how this was going to turn out and it actually worked beautifully! With four of these the voices in videos aren't anaemic. They're wired in series-parallel to provide a single 8 Ohm load to the receiver. I thought they were outstanding value.Ĥ) The centre 'speaker' is actually four micro-flanged 8-Ohm centre channel 6317s. I already have 6 of these in the dining room (before the 6816s were available). I needed something quite narrow here, and it was before I was aware of the 7604s that are so popular in this thread of late.ģ) The 'high' speakers are the 8' 2-way 4101s. I'm using another two pairs as surround and surround back speakers.Ģ) The 'wide' speakers are the micro-flanged 8-Ohm centre channel 6317s in a vertical orientation. I love these speakers - possibly the best bang for buck ever.

Normally the wide configuration sounds great, but action movies benefit from the high speakers for overhead effects like planes and helicopters weather etc.ġ) The left and right speakers are the 8' 3-way 6816s. Only 9 are active at any one time - a traditional 7.1 setup with either high or wide speakers, which you can switch between for different material. This is a 9.2 receiver that allows 11 channels to be hooked up.

They're all from Monoprice and sound exceptional for the price. The speakers (labeled below each one in the pic).
