The Monitor XT15's Terylene dome tweeters enable playback beyond the range of human hearing—up to 40 kHz—ensuring an airy, clear, high-end energy, and spaciousness that you'll not only hear but feel. The XT15 is a perfect speaker set to enjoy high-resolution movies, gaming, or hi-res streaming services like Apple Music, Tidal, Amazon Music HD, and Qobuz.
Polk has always been known for speakers that produce effortless bass surprising for their size, and the XT15 is no exception. 5.25" high-efficiency, dynamically balanced woofers provide a clean, open midrange and punchy, responsive bass with low distortion, making voices and instruments clearly heard, and movie soundtracks and music filled with impact.
Compatible with Dolby Atmos and DTS:X surround sound-enabled A/V receivers and 4 to 8-ohm amplifiers, the Monitor XT15 does not require specialized equipment to deliver great sound.
All Monitor XT models are made for the enjoyment of pure sound. Their nickel-plated binding posts guarantee a direct, lossless connection, while critically braced MDF cabinets isolate the sound of the woofer and tweeter without adding unwanted resonances, and their removable, precision-fit grilles minimize sonic interference.

A: Yes, it is much more affordable than the Arca Swiss Cubes.
Q: 2. What is the included allen wrench for?
A: The allen key is for the small allen screws at the base of the qr plate, they are stops so the plate doesn't slide out but some users prefer not to use the screws.
Q: 3. With the camera mounted can you see the level bubble thats right behind the plate?
A: We feel you will have no issue seeing the levels of this head.
Q: 4. Will this fit on a Gitzo 2545T tripod and will it be able to hold a Leica Televid spotting scope with digiscope and SL2 camera?
A: Yes, the Gitzo 2545T tripod and the fluid head will hold your setup with ease.

Q: 6. Will this work with "Kirk Universal Tall L-Bracket" ? THANKS
A: Yes it is compatible and work with the Kirk QRLB-T Universal Quick Release Tall L-Bracket: https://bhpho.to/2UsRRHH
Q: 7. How will it stack up against the expensive Arca Swiss cube. Could it hold my Arca Swiss 4x5 classic which weighs about 6 lbs?? thanks!
A: I bought it to use with my Canon tilt-shift lenses (17mm & 24mm) on a Canon 5D Mark IV. It supported that set-up just fine. However, I did end up returning the Benro and bit the bullet for an Arca Swiss D4 geared head. I did not care for the controls of the Benro. I also had to buy a spacer to lift it up from the platform of my Gitzo tripod because of the controls sometimes contacting the tripod platform. I have no experience with any other geared head (and I haven't received the Arca Swiss D4 yet; supposed to arrive today); therefore, I can't compare the Benro to, for example, the Manfrotto geared heads.Initially upon receiving the Benro, I liked it, but soon found that the pointy knob controls for free movement of the head were not comfortable for me to use. It is not a bad head for the price, that's for sure.
Q: 8. Would it be possible to "perfectly" balance a 80D with EF 50mm f1.4 to a stage where I can point the camera at any direction, any tilt angle and the camera would stay precisely stationary as pointed?
A: Yes, but keep in mind that the tilt and pan parameters are as follows: -60°/90° Tilt, 360° Pan
Q: 9. Can you suggest a budget friendly tripod that won't move when set up to go with this head? Heavy is ok.
A: Manfrotto MT055XPRO3 Aluminum Tripod B&H # MAMT055XPRO3
Q: 10. plus/minus 110 degrees? Is that 220 degrees of motion, or really just +55, -55 ( etc)??
A: i looked at mine last night -- horizontally 360 degrees and vertically 180 degrees (full range of motion not 1/2) -- not sure where the 110% comes from.Mike
