    NOT SATISFIED

    ESI nEar 08 ClassicPublished on 05/08/12 at 11:23
    (This content has been automatically translated from French)
    60W + 60W
    Frequency Response: 40 Hz - 24 kHz
    XLR and TRS
    bass reflex system
    eight-inch speaker
    used mobile home studio

    SOUNDS

    The frequency curve is sufficiently neutral?
    I feel that it flatters the serious low end. Fortunately a switch on the rear is to reduce the frequency of 50 to 100 htz. the advantage is that you can do without sub but be careful.

    The stereo is good?
    AC seems correct ...

    The sound is clear and precise across the spectrum?
    when the breath kindles it and that way I straighten the hair leaves because you wonder if it comes from taking sounds or speakers. provide a reliable headphone to make sure! if not well-defined treble and you get to r…

    when the breath kindles it and that way I straighten the hair leaves because you wonder if it comes from taking sounds or speakers. provide a reliable headphone to make sure! if not well-defined treble and you get to return the instrument's sound without distorting it that is not bad.

    The dynamics are respected?
    good dynamic with the peaches ... attention to low!

    OVERALL OPINION

    How long you use it?
    2 months

    What is so special that you love the most, least?
    most: price, good bass without a sub, behind the settings to suit the room acoustics
    the least: the breath, bass I'm suspicious, it heats, not possible to mount more than three-fourth of the volume: too much for my small ears and the more the impression that HP will explode

    Did you tried many other models before buying it?
    not as studiste home (I am a musician at the base and I devote myself between concerts to computer music). I've heard of others who seemed less rough.

    How would you rate the quality / price?
    It is true that for 215 euros, it can be able to mix at home with a good sound pressure without breaking the bank.

    With experience, you do again this choice?
    I will give my impressions when I have used more! but for now, I'm still mixed ...

    ESI's reputation by word of mouth, but I think the sound guys with whom I spoke, had to think of the nEar08 eXperience not the classic ... (150th of difference) because my feeling is very mixed on this model.

    SOUNDS

    20-100hz:-10db because I do not have to return the wall behind bass reflex at the back, usually I can not find the grave "punchy" which is sold on the data sheet., Above: it's going a little better, with peak at 550 and 1k25, quite acute. medium because its usually too uncomfortable before, especially the 1k25. after, it is a practice listening to amplify the flaws in this part of her, so essential in a mix. poor choice for a main listening, especially without subs, c…

    dynamic: good, sharp accurate. lack the low end. strange phenomenon in the 300hz, may be due to the distance ... stereo image not great either because of the bump in 1k25, switch "bass boost" fantasy back in front with only controled the freq (50-65-80-100hz), fixed gain (db ENV2), it is unclear whether it is a shelving or a shelv, no bypass, => ineficacité process, and below any instructions, we learn nothing! AHU walls better than the HF with 1db increments, and HP seems better, but anyway, not sure! is price to pay for speakers that do not sound at all.

    OVERALL OPINION

    use: two months in pro.
    intermediate model, the intermediate, intermediate satisfaction, nothing would do well grisant.je do not have that choice: either take the nEar08 experience (330th) or switch brands. (NS10m/adam/KRK)
