About this item
Highlights
- Planar Drivers: Not your typical headphone driver! A planar magnetic driver is a flat membrane that is surrounded by magnets.
- When current is delivered, the membrane produces sound that has lower distortion, better bass, and pinpoint imaging that is usually not found in your typical headphone driver. The size of the driver in the Monolith M1060 is 106mm.
- Open Back Design: Instead of an "inside your head" isolated experience that traditional closed-back headphones provide, open-back headphones provide a holographic listening experience.
- It's as if you're in the middle of a live performance, instead of being closed off from the world.
- Comfort: The Monolith M1060 has been engineered to be comfortable for extended listening sessions. Large, comfy earpads made of faux leather and a padded headband are designed to keep you comfortable as you listen.

Great sound from these headphones. If you set the EQ settings to your preference it makes the sound even better.

My biggest concern was fitting my head. These fit perfectly w/o any problem whatsoever! The way the swivel works on both sides of the headphones makes sure they'll fit anyones head. My only second concern was how good would the magnetic planer technology work when listening to HD music. And, again, it was perfect as if these were built specifically for dolby atmos or spatial audio. Thanks monoprice for raising the standard and giving a great product and a great experience.
A miracle

These are not a pair of headphones. These are a miracle. Once you dress it you will never do a mix without. You will discover sounds that you didn't know there was hidden in your song. Incredible stereo panorama, all sound appears clear and true. With this headphones my mixes are becoming adult with a quality I had never reached before. If you are mastering or mixing your music don't think but buy it! You will never use other headphones for mixing or mastering. I'm so in love with this headphones that I will buy a second pair to make a gift to my brother.

I like this gear! I have other 2 - 3 headphones... But this one have a superb detail e superb stereo image in this range! If you would you like to test a planar headphone, this is a good step four your ears! Best!

Amazing sound, poor build quality

First off let me say I'm outside of warranty, but the issues with these started years ago. Unfortunately, I just wanted to long to open an RMA I purchased one of the first batches back in 2017. Unfortunately there have been a few build quality issues. First off the left side seems to have a poor connection that will drop/short out when you turn your head. I'm pretty sure this is responsible for killing two of my DAC's The pads; they're falling apart in every way you can think of. The covering has started to flake off. I'm left with little bits of black pad material every time I use them. They also came unglued from the drivers during their second year in use.
So glad I got these.

These are just as phenomenal as their over-a-thousand-bucks alternative. Mixing game has gone up 1000% pairing these with Sound ID Reference room tuning and treatment. Cannot recommend them enough!
These sound like they cost four times as much

Very happy with them

These aren't conventionally super expensive in the high end headphone world but they are my most expensive headphone purchase to date and I'm very happy with them. They're beautiful, feel incredibly well made and are pretty comfortable. Pretty wide sound for the price, nice and detailed, tight clean bass, overall no issues. I actually find myself listening to music pretty loud sometimes cause out of my Fiio BTR5 balanced output there is basically no distortion. If you're looking to get into planar magnetic headphones but don't want to spend LCD-2 money, hey, I rate these. (photo is my rack of audio bits - Grado SR80e, Audio-Technica MSR7, KZ KSN Pro X, Fiio BTR5)
Really, really good

I wanted some higher end headphones, and these fit the bill. I sold off all my other sub $300 headphones. I barely use them because I liked the idea of using headphones more than actually using them. I guess I'm just a speakers guy at heart. But I have them when I need them. Definitely keepers.

Received today the M1060, in my first listening they gave me an excellent sound. Of course I cannot say anything about build construction and durability being my first day, but at the moment I like them overall. They sound great :)

Outta the box, I don't find them to be that great (too dull). However, I'm using them with my digital audio workstation and a special headphone plugin (Dear VR Monitor) and a bit of added top EQ ... with this chain, these headphones literally sound like $40k worth of speakers .. and being a 4X Grammy nominated producer ... I know what $40k sounds like. They have literally transformed my production style ... thanks so much!

Very linear response frequency, a can ear a little ring on the 4000-6000 Herz but is perfect reference for your mix or mastering
Great sound, not great build quality

I really love the sound of these headphones, but not the build quality. Cable died in the first month (Monoprice did send a replacement for free). And the small screw caps that hold the cans to the head strap at some random point shot off. I can't find em so now occasionally my cans fall off the headstrap.
Broke!
