Studio 100s - much better control of the high freq range, and also a wider soundstage in my opinion
100's.....all the way...thepogue

Agree with above poster, much cleaner and more refined speaker than the monitor 11. The studio 100 is one of the best speakers out there under 3k..IMO.
One of best under $3,000, agreed! (nt)midfiman

Is it really fair to compare the two? I mean it's such a large price gap between the two.... or maybe I just don't like people mentioning the notion that my monitor 11's aren't superior... :)

It's definitely not fair to compare the 2. I actually like most of the monitor series(including the 11) and they are amongst the best in their price point. For home theater/rock/rap they are an awesome lineup of speakers.
I doubt anyone denies they are good speakers for price (nt)midfiman

It's more comparable then, not the same still, but much closer...

I got them from my salesguy for $1200/pr. He won a sales competion or something from paradigm and i guess had the option of studio 100s as a prize. I bought them from him (not the store, i guess) new in unopenned boxes. (i even got to choose the finish). It pays to have a good relationship with your hifi store. The studio 100s were just an unobtainable dream for me until that fatefull day!! I am really happy with them, and for the price, i can't beat them

I agree with all of the other posts; the Studio 100's are better, but it is not fair to compare the two.

People seem to like doing things like that, comparing two products in vastly different classes. Nobody would think of comparing a Subaru WRX to a Dodge Viper. Both are great cars in their respective leagues, but to compare them head-to-head is pointless.

If you have the money for the Studio's, buy them. They are fantastic speakers. I wish I could afford them! If not, by the Monitor 11's and be happy with them, as they are also a fantastic speaker.
