    There's some on ebay. I'm not sure if the color is correct though.

    Left and right matching subs never hooked up from new.
    When we had the surround system setup, with 4 Infinity Prelude MTS's, there was zero need for a dedicated sub as the preludes have 4.

    The subs are actually 220 lbs each.
    Aurasound NS15-992-4A 15" driver w/neo magnets.

    Will sell both cheap.

    Cool deal! I'm just not sure my space will fit dual 15" subs! I'd like to think so though lol.

    They are very big but, they are designed to fit in a corner if one needs that.

    Are they powered by external amps?

    Internal 1,000w amps.

    Do not know which model amps are in there but, they were designed in the U.S. and built in Chy-Nuh.

    My guess would be a Class D?
    Unlike my Infinity Prelude MTS's 850w internal B.A.S.H. amp... there's no description of who's manufacturer's design (Amp) the amp is.

    I may be wrong, but I think he is talking about a custom sub or from some obscure company that made HT subs with a car audio subwoofer and some 1000w mono amp. This seems to be the woofer

    ...and perhaps this is the custom/obscure sub?

    I stand corrected, it was actually a side effort from the same Monster that makes cables. That link is probably the closest you'll come to literature.

    That’s the ones.

    From memory they we’re around 6k each?
    I got them on a sale for $1,500 each as they weren’t selling.

    They demoed them @ Magnolia and they were impressive.

    Reckon the name Monster scared away the philes.

    I was reading last night that Monster ended up loosing about $50MIL on that whole side venture.
    BTW, The actual product literature for the sub was a bit buried, but it is in pdf here:

    Yep, Monster tried to enter the higher end with their speakers.
    Their full sustem was approaching $50k at their debut around the middle of the 2000 year.

    Ended up being a huge flop financially.
    Their towers for the eleganza system were like 7’ tall.

    Thanks for finding the PDF!

    Wicked Subs for sure! Pretty aesthetically pleasing as well IMO.

    Dou to their shape they won't work in my space or else I'm sure I'd be all over these lol.

    Yea, corner built kind of limits placement.
    4 Godfather's made to form a circle.

    That would be close to 900 lbs of a circle of subs that form a weird kind of end table... of which, nobody would have a use for.

    Be careful setting carbonated beverages on that table! Might have something similar to a diet coke/mentos eruption.

    Are those panties or a lace doily?

    Only her wax technician knows for sure.
