Soliloquy is an audible oratory or conversation with oneself.
Soliloquy can take the form of a dramatic or comedic monologue that is illusory (or abstractly hallucinagenic or dreamlike) of either a single passage or an entire series of unspoken reflections.
Soliloquy can take the form of a dramatic or comedic monologue that is illusory (or abstractly hallucinagenic or dreamlike) of either a single passage or an entire series of unspoken reflections, and can therefore be a theatrical technique instrumental in advancing several ideas and thoughts in one sequence.

 AllRefer.com - soliloquy (Literature, General) - Encyclopedia
soliloquy, the speech by a character in a literary composition, usually a play, delivered while the speaker is either alone addressing the audience directly or the other actors are silent.
The soliloquy may also act simply as a vehicle for information about absent characters or events occurring at some other time or place.
In the modern theater the soliloquy has tended to disappear completely, although experimentations in its use were attempted by such playwrights as Eugene O'Neill, who sought through the soliloquy to achieve a greater psychological realism.

 SoundStage! Equipment Review - Soliloquy 6.2 Loudspeakers (9/2003)
This is due to Soliloquy’s firm belief that cabinet resonance has no place in the sound chain, so they use 1" high-density fiberboard (not medium-density fiberboard, or MDF) all around and further damp the cabinet internally with a variety of inert materials that add to their mass.
Soliloquy recommends that the speakers be placed anywhere from 18 inches to five feet from the front wall (measured from the rear panel of the speaker), and it wasn’t until I got them 44" out that the speakers really decoupled from my room.
The Soliloquy 6.2s reached down and dug out the guts of Everlast’s opening vocals such that I could feel him in the room with me. Captured were all the rolling undertones and guttural rumblings produced by the obviously closely mic’d vocals, while the competition mustered no more than a mere surface reconstruction by comparison.

Soliloquy told me that the dome is doped with the same ferrofluid used to cool the voice coils.
According to Soliloquy, the three woofers are run with staggered high-pass filters to ease the transition from line-source bass to point-source midrange.
Soliloquy claims a couple of benefits for this driver mounting: mechanical decoupling from the MDF speaker cabinet, and heat-sinking for the drivers, both of which are said to reduce boxy colorations and thermal compression.

 Hamlet Haven: "To Be..." Soliloquy   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-07)
Although the “To be, or not to be” passage “was originally staged as a feigned soliloquy” (14), the closing of the theaters in 1642 broke the “English theatrical tradition” (15).
Unfortunately, the “erroneous belief that the ‘To be’ soliloquy represented Hamlet’s thoughts and the erroneous belief that soliloquies of all ages typically represented the thoughts of characters became mutually reinforcing” (22).
As attention to each soliloquy’s context enables “one to see the speech as a part of the action, not apart from it” (23), findings are presented “as they arise simultaneously from the poetics of language and action, which often have various kinds of contextual significance that need to be recognized and understood” (24).

 Audio Ideas Guide Hi-Fi and Home Theater Equipment Reviews: Soliloquy 6.5 Loudspeaker   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-07)
North Carolina based Soliloquy, which has been gaining attention for impressive sound and luxurious build quality over the past several years, has recently capped off the top of their range with a new speaker.
Soliloquy says that the 6.5 is designed from "the driver up" and this, naturally, includes the drivers which are designed by Phil Jones himself and made in his AAD factory in the orient (Soliloquy is the importer/distributor of AAD speakers in North America).
In this sense a medium sized company like Soliloquy is able to exploit many of the same advantages enjoyed by larger companies capable of making their own drivers and other components in house.

 SOLILOQUY Mono Block
The Soliloquy mono power amplifier is the fruition of over 20 years research into discrete linear amplifier and power regulation circuits to produce the most sophisticated, technologically advanced solid state amplifier ever built.
Connection of the SOLILOQUY into a typical system is relatively straight forward since it possesses only a set of inputs (which are connected to the respective channels of the preceeding preamplifier) and a set of speaker Terminals (Red and Black to indicate correct polarity).
The SOLILOQUY features two modes of protection - one which is inherent in the operation of the design which acts as 'current' protection and the other which uses associated sensing circuitry to monitor the outputs for DC and deactivate if DC is present.

 Speaking of Which... The Soliloquy 6.5 Loudspeakers by Todd Warnke
With this affordable design and manufacturing process in place, Soliloquy is able to shift what they would normally spend on those details to spend those dollars on packaging the set in large, well-built, well-braced and visually attractive cabinetry.
A visual analogy, moving from the Soliloquys to the Merlins was like changing the resolution on your monitor from 24 to 32 bit color.
I would also say that while our team at Soliloquy is indeed fond of tubes, the kind of bass the Model 6.5 is capable of, is best served by the higher damping factor of a solid state design.
