Dual Sonic Identities. Premium Craftsmanship. Unmatched Detail.
The ThieAudio Monarch MKIV redefines flagship-level performance by merging reference-grade precision with dynamic, hard-hitting bass. Equipped with the new dual tuning switch, users can effortlessly toggle between two distinct sound signatures—STANDARD for studio-accurate clarity or RUMBLE for a deeper, bass-enhanced experience.
