The Monolith M1570C is a standout closed-back planar magnetic headphone known for its massive price-to-performance ratio and excellent build quality. At €485, this listing sits just €10 above the €475 median from your recent EUR comparables, placing it squarely in the fair range between the 25th percentile (€452) and 75th percentile (€480). While not a bargain, the price is honest for a well-loved model that frequently sells for $500–$600 USD (roughly €460–€550) when new.
This is a worthwhile buy for listeners seeking accurate, studio-like sound with a neutral frequency response and extended soundstage. The 106mm planar driver delivers lush, rich audio with excellent bass impact when paired with the included leather pads. Since the price is fair and the product is highly regarded for democratizing planar tech, treat this as a solid buying opportunity rather than a risk, provided the unit is physically intact and includes the standard velour and leather earpads.
Independent perspective — not a price guarantee. Always verify condition, accessories and provenance before purchase.
Monolith is the premium audio label of Monoprice, a U.S. consumer-electronics company founded in 2002 in California. The Monolith sub-brand appeared in 2017 and was developed to give Monoprice a more serious hi-fi and home-theater identity, with product development led by Hobie Sechrest. It is not an old-school heritage marque, but a modern house brand built on Monoprice’s direct-to-consumer model.
The range is broad and performance-oriented, including headphone amplifiers, DACs, preamps, power amplifiers, AV processors, subwoofers, loudspeakers, and some accessories. Monolith products are also known for collaborations with audio engineers and for using technologies such as THX AAA amplification and Dirac processing in selected models. The lineup tends to emphasize measured performance and feature density rather than ornate industrial design.
In the market, Monolith sits in the value-focused end of the serious-audio segment: above budget entry-level gear, but usually below traditional high-end brands on price. Its reputation is strongest among buyers who want strong specs, credible engineering, and competitive measurements without paying premium-brand margins. It is best understood as an enthusiast-friendly, price-aggressive contender rather than a boutique or collectible label.
