What happened to Monsoon Audio?

Hey Siliab - thanks for your response. I checked out Eminent-Tech's LFT model and the prices are a little too steep, I should say. $599 for a 2 pair + sub and $899 for a four speaker + sub system!!!

Any others that you know of? There are some refurbished Monsoon ones on ebay - unfortunately there aren't the better ones that Monsoon had - specifically the MM-1000 and MM-2000.

Hello Harry,

Looking at the the ET website, I believe the speaker and sub also come with an amplifier. Although the ET system is not cheap, they do some reasonable for what you get. Just FYI.

Cheers

Maybe they are all washed up.

I purchased these for my computer.

They really sound fantastic. I use au-24 speaker wire and I added a 10awg power cord to the amp. It does soundstage. Somewhere they might sell the clear acrylic instead of the wood speaker.

I bought the Vonschweikert FPS speakers. Being a previous owner of VonSchweikert series, I was hoping a lot. However was in for a little dissapointment. The speakers are good but lack seriously in the bass department. The bass just doesn't seem to by rythmic. I am not a bass lover so can live with the speakers. But the boston acoustics speakers I have do a much better job in speed and bass. The VSs though rule in clarity and sweetness. Also the cables provided seem to be of cheapest quality. I guess I need to change the cables.

As typical of VS, the packaging was good.

Overall not a bad choice amongst the limited choices in Planar/Electrostatic Computer speakers but VonSchweikert could have done better. The speakers are certainly not for gaming but for pure music - jazz, vocals, r&b ... type.
