Hi, what are you looking for?
Monoprice adds to its Monolith Encore speaker line with the Encore 5-Series which includes the T5 Tower, B5 Bookshelf, and C5 Center Channel Speaker.
Following up on their previous release of the very affordable Monolith Encore 6-series home theater speaker line, Monoprice has decided to expand the Encore line by adding an Encore 5 Series that is priced lower than the current models without sacrificing quality.
The 5 series includes the T5 Tower, B5 Bookshelf, and C5 Center Channel speakers.
The speakers are sold individually which allows for flexible setup configurations. Just as with the Encore 6 series, you can use the T5 tower speakers as your front speakers in combination with the B5 bookshelf as surrounds and the C5 center channel. You can use the T5 towers for both front and surround speakers combined with the C5 center channel. You can use the B5 bookshelves as both your front and surround speakers combined with a C5 center channel. For a complete home theater setup, you can add one or more subwoofers, such as the Monoprice Monolith M-10 V2, which we previously featured in a preview article, and an Affordable Subwoofer Shootout. You can assemble a 2-channel stereo setup with just a pair of T5s or B5s. What All Three Speakers Have in Common
