Unity Audio unveils the Monolith, a robust-looking speaker stand. In their own words :

"We designed and built our own monitor stands because we felt that other current speaker stand brands just were not up to the job for professional applications. The principle behind a good stand is to provide a solid base for the speaker so that energy is not lost through unnecessary movement; so that the speakers energy is projected forward to the listener! Also if your control room has a resonant floor, The Monolith decouples the speaker from the floor, again reduced energy loss.

By using our stands, bass response is dramatically improved with extended lower end performance in conjunction with tighter, better defined mid range."
