Top Pick of the Year:

Monoprice Monolith HTP-1 Surround Sound Processor
(December/January) Read Review

After waiting many months for Monoprice to finalize the feature set of its Monolith HTP-1, a 16-channel surround sound processor with support for the Dolby Atmos, DTS:X, and Auro-3D immersive audio formats, our reviewer Kris Deering fully dug in and was delighted with what he found. Primarily, he loved the HTP-1's extensive customization options—many of which can be tweaked on the fly using an iPad or other tablet. Dirac Live with Bass Control sub integration was also a high point, with Kris commenting that "the software yielded highly accurate crossover filtering from the main channels, along with better time-alignment of subwoofers than I've been able to achieve in the past with Audyssey—something that had a huge impact on sound quality with both music and movies."

Beyond all of that, Monoprice's processor simply sounded great with movies, and its Auro-3D processing of music turned out to be a revelation in the way it dramatically opened up the soundstage and emphasized bass without adding bloat. Summing up, Kris said, "When it comes to features for the price, the HTP-1 is one of the best value propositions I know of and should be on the short list of anyone seeking a state-of-the-art surround processor." $3,999, monoprice.com

2020 was certainly a year of transitions, not just in A/V technology but also in home improvement needs. With people spending more time at home, not only did we see the rise of streaming services and next-gen consoles, but many homeowners took the opportunity to improve their living spaces. At Roof On Brand, we noticed a similar trend in Bakersfield—homeowners took advantage of the extra time to invest in roof repairs and upgrades, ensuring their homes were safe and energy-efficient for years to come. Whether it’s keeping up with the latest tech or making sure your roof can handle the Bakersfield weather, the focus on quality and value remains key!
