    The compactness, robustness, and very favorable reviews in the specialist press for sound.

    In use, I'm not disappointed at all, the volume is comfortable and precision and largely up to my use.

    Auf, it hurts to realize the answer soon ... 10 years!

    I tried and I retained Diva16 I occasionally used NS10.

    I really like the "armored" and precise both side.


    Frankly, I had an opportunity like we never met, I dreamed about it, and offered me. I would do this choice without hesitation.

    Paralllement, the volume that you can DGIG not always live up to what one would expect from monitor speakers.

    OVERALL OPINION

    Personally, I rather see the 1029 as multimedia speakers (we buy with a PC) improving.
    Those who really want to sound turning instead to the 1030 sincrement more respectable.
    If in addition we Whereas the price ... (I prfre not continue).

    One last tip: Do not remove if you do not have the exprience, their installation is very treacherous and hoods (especially rear) in alluvial fresh mass are expensive.

    I fell for the brand to rename their mouths and their frequency response very precise, it is clear the spectrum is not abusing it sounds like it is drawn but the double edge is cut in net income to 70Hz

    SOUNDS

    Huge dynamic really accurate, the kicks have plenty of fishing, but not serious so the box is essential.
    The stereo is good provided they are well placed must adjust their height if it pourrave.
    Their answer is faithful ... 7050 with the box! is misleading without my mix was full of bass that I heard no I had to juggle multiple system to be fair she did so for naught.

    To get watts must mix in small square pieces style 16m max, otherwise it lacks power.

    OVERALL OPINION

    I'm right about these speakers by buying them at a good price abroad, but I admit that without the box I was disappointed because the mix but was grave;
    I highly recommend for home recording with the box is more than enough.
    A purchase is very safe as pro gear ... GENELEC live!
    Good mix to you!

    Excellent for mounting a 5.1 system not too expensive and top quality!


    OVERALL OPINION

    Compact, efficient, lightweight (only 6kg/pc, even if they seem very solid when the door for the first time ...), and XLR jack handy, good sound.
    Really a nice compromise for the home studio. All for a price almost ridiculous (and it is still of Genelec).
