Over two years in development, Nocs' Monolith is a hand-built speaker of the highest quality. It starts with local birch plywood, which is precisely CNC'd and then treated with oil and wax for a deep matte black finish. Custom-tuned Scan-Speak drivers — two woofers and three full-range — are then added, augmented by a newly-invented vent design inspired by car exhaust systems that increases bass response while reducing distortion. The resulting speaker is powerful and detailed, with display-worthy looks and the convenience of ​Spotify Connect & Tidal Connect support, Bluetooth 5.0, upcoming AirPlay 2 support, and optional multi-room playback, linking together up to eight units. Proudly designed and crafted in Sweden, it arrives with stainless steel floor stands.
