foldback speakers/monitors
Explanation:
The foldbacks, or foldback speakers, are the speakers which allow vocalists and musicians to hear themselves during a concert (as well as actors during e.g. a musical).

But very low confidence here, because they're normally called 'kolumny odsłuchowe' as far as I know. I also checked with our technical director, who said the same and hasn't heard of 'kraty odsłuchowe'.
