Page5 Monolith III User's Manual Monolith III Specifications The MONOLITH III hybrid speaker system consists of a broad-range single element electrostatic transducer integrated with a quick-response woofer. This approach takes maximum advantage of the positive aspects that both technologies have to offer.
Page6 Monolith III User's Manual In the late 1800’s, any loudspeaker was considered exotic. Today, most of us take the wonders of sound reproduction for granted. It was 1880 before Thomas Edison had invented the first phonograph. This was a horn-loaded diaphragm that was excited by a playback stylus.

Page17 Monolith III User's Manual To prevent subsonic energy from taxing the listener, room, and driver, a sub- sonic high-pass filter is necessary. A third filter is reserved for low-pass filter operation. The characteristics of frequency and “Q” of each filter is affected by component value selection within each filter section.
