  OktoberOne's review ( translated ) Improve this translation "Versatile and great Quality / Price ratio"

  Characteristics

  I was looking for a pair of monitors for a first second hand purchase. I narrowed down my choices to the HS 50 from Yamaha and this one. Reviews of the HS 50 said they were sorely lacking bass.  Since I am a tribecore / hardcore I needed bass! I bought them for 200 € second hand.

  Sounds

  The curve is not neutral, I would say that the bass is a little more powerful but it's no big deal for my style, on the contrary!  The highs are not super accurate. On the other hand, there aren't any infra-lows, you need to have a sub or a headset and even more if necessary, but this is really knit picking.
  
  
  
  The dynamic is very good I find the stereo good as well.
  
  
  
  Overall the sound is not aggressive, you can work several hours without your ears tiring out.  These are good little boxes, not so small actually .. For a first purchase I am completely satisfied.
  
  
  
  PS: If you want to work on pieces that require special attention to the highs such as violins, piano, guitar etc, get something else.

  Overall Opinion

  I use them for three weeks already, I have chosen them for their performance on mediums and lows. I would repeat this choice again!

  conssolle's review ( translated ) Improve this translation " still satisfies"

  Characteristics

  why this choice:
  
  that they either 6 "at first,usage:
  
  use in my home studio only for synth compositions
  
  configuration:
  
  the output of a mixing desk and also a 1622FX esp1010e ESI

  Sounds

  very good sound, excellent stereo image even a bit "inflated"
  
  It has clear and precise bass and treble that blends well
  
  good dynamics

  Overall Opinion

  since 2.5 years
  
  I tried Fostex (not to my taste) of prodipe (sucks!) Yamaha (very cold for my taste)
  
  positive characteristic: aced in front, general look, footprint size, connectivity, setting, quality/price
  
  
  
  negative feature: knob volume at the back, a little more bass would be fine, 1 year after my purchase the rockit came out with the rounded box! for better circulation, the models are quickly replaced: (
  
  
  
  I would repeat without hesitation this choice, I am very very happy with these monitors, superb qualities for a very affordable price, they age very well with no apparent damage with time

  yoyog's review ( translated ) Improve this translation "It's a bit disappointing."

  Characteristics

  I wanted to get a sound as close as possible to the hi-fi output coming from my Roland keyboard. My keyboard amp was too heavy on that side, and its sound too hard ... I planned to use the output table. 

  Sounds

  The technical specifications announced are pretty good for this particular product bandwidth. The yield approaches a hi-fi type midi.
  
  On the other hand, on the question of clarity, the sound is really pulled low, even after equalization. On this side it's disappointing.

  Overall Opinion

  I bought a pair earlier this year, it was my first pair of monitoring. I have white and yellow version and I like this look. The quality / price remained correct, but as to whether I will ever repeat this choice is a different story ...

  Anonymous 's review ( translated ) Improve this translation

  Characteristics

  I chose this pair of monitors at home mainly for mixing and I am very satisfied but it is the new G2

  Sounds

  The dynamics are excellent not only in the bass but also in midrange

  Overall Opinion

  For 1 day
  
  
  
  they are great, don't need more as I use them mainly at home; I would say that even the RP5 are sufficient for work at home
  
  
  
  the setting is great with the two knobs behind which can be adapted to any environment
  
  
  
  and the price is correct at 349 euros a pair

  Overall Opinion

  Well then, it's a totally amateur opinion ... And not yet worked with monitoring speakers I do not pretend to have ultimate ear.
  
  
  
  My comparison was constructed via several MODELS:
  
  Fostex PM04
  
  Fostex PM05
  
  Fostex PM1
  
  KRK RP5
  
  KRK RP6 the
  
  KRK RP8
  
  Prodipe Pro 8
  
  The other models, which I cannot afford to buy, I gave up on ...
  
  
  
  I must say that I did not listen to songs that I knew but a CD Nova with songs in various styles.
  
  
  
  First, I started in the Listen to Fostex PM04 and 05 ... Honestly I was at the height of the bass response and the excessive presence of highs. While the 04 are very small, but even so the bass sounded very slight and not just on one track ... In fact I felt like a ringing a little box, even not too bright just soft (MP04 and MP05) ... And strangely, even the male trs PM1 sounded in the low frequencies despite their bulky size trs I find (in depth).
  
  Yet I must say that j'tais party with a view to purchase monitors under the brand ... The design remains enjoyable trs.
  
  
  
  I then cost the Prodipe pro 8, trs trs fat ... and not own the Low! The tweeter had a little trouble following this big coronation membrane. C'tait same thundering, I can not imagine cost a small piece of classical or above the OPRA. And even in hip-hop (this account mixer), it must be difficult to achieve not mix the sub-bass to the mix. In addition, their size is incredible and in a small home-stud is impossible to place.
  
  
  
  KRK RP6 Finally, and surprise! The COST seemed clear, rich bass ... but still much less rough balance that Prodipe. In fact trs just nice ... I imagine dja hour mix it ... In contrast to the Fostex which would have broken the head in one hour I think.
  
  I heard clearly snares, kicks, ways and saxophones all with acute too rich (head breakers) and low round but not too much ... just trs Submitted enjoyable. The RP5 I got are better than the same home MODELS Fostex, a sound card months I think. The RP8 but too big for my future HS.
  
  
  
  Conslusion: the lower the Fostex are too hollow and too rich for Prodipe. The flat Lagne KRK me a lot.
  
  
  
  I think we really need to listen before buying his monitors, I would have done a great blunder if not (thinking of buy Fostex PM05).
  
  
  
  I intend to return to the store my music next time to really decide a dernire time.
  
  
  
  Finally, for hip hop and electronic music has me parat qualitprix be the best ... And careful design, in black or white they are beautiful (with the event forward, very practical!).
  
  
  
  It should be even when the cost is the best.
  
  
  
  EDIT 13/03/2008: APRS multiple cost me back on my decision, I think I'll buy the PMI MKII which seems more neutral in the end. The treble of RP6 seem too flattering ... But it is a subjective opinion.
  
  11/08/2008 EDIT: in the end I turned to the ADAM A7 and I'm thrilled. I use them for a month or two so I rdigerai Retailer notice a few times in the opinion of the product concerned.

  alecton's review ( translated ) Improve this translation

  Characteristics

  Size of the monitors, response threshold at low frequencies, available for front vents, possible adjustments to adapt the response of the speakers to the acoustic completely rotten in the closet that serves as my home studio, woofer + tweeter 1 inch 6-inch connection varied.
  
  Bill strong.
  
  
  
  Close monitoring of low-volume Trip Hop, percussion and piano.
  
  
  
  Connected at the output of an M-Audio Delta 1010 LT

  Sounds

  Good midrange and bass response (PR 6 for 6 inches, which makes the fine and the Tapco S5 Fostex PM 0.5) the sounds are very dynamic (where the S5 are too round and a little short on PM 0.5).
  
  Good treble response (a chouillat too well).
  
  Stereo fairly strong (effect of spatial impressive mix)
  
  Clean sounds (highlights the encoding of many of my crappy Mix and MP3), the bass does not drool.
  
  For this price, and not forgetting the need to compromise when you type in this Cathegory, the dynamic is correct, not aggressive (€ 470 in Lyon)

  Overall Opinion

  They are running, I will return in a few months to confirm or refute my first impressions.
  
  A trial in the same store:
  
  - Tapco s5 (very low round but limited (bass seemed to lack a soul, mediums drooling (with a trough at the top), acute correct)
  
  - Fostex PM0.5 (bass "hard" mediums with better defined than the S5, treble responded better, the image is very impressive for their size but the definition of low is too limited for my needs)
  
  - Alesis m1 mk2 (big bass and low mids, which eat up the rest of the spectrum = boiled)
  
  - M6 has (to get an idea of ​​what happens: impressive .... but too expensive)
  
  - Fostex PM1 (too much bass, but excellent for the rest of the spectrum (I missed 100 € 25m ² to enable them to me)
  
  - Tapco s8 (comparable with the previous rear vents, still impressive)
  
  - KRK RP5 (no bass, treble harsh, headache guaranteed ...)
  
  - Studiophile BX5 (low imprecise, mediums flattering -> to avoid)
  
  
  
  In fact fall between the RP6 and s5/PM0.5 S8/PM1 (whether in terms of price and sound image so good compromise quality / price ratio).
  
  It is strange that they do not appear more often in homes French studio. All opinions found on these animals are in English, it's a shame, they are worth their price.
  
  
  
  Back after three months of intensive use:
  
  No significant surprise, an overall operation entirely consistent with low volume these speakers have a sound power voume impressive high. Single point crap, they are not armored.
  
  
  
  I stay on my first sense: they are between the pm0.5 (and similar) and pm1 (same woofer 8 ")

  netgrabber's review ( translated ) Improve this translation

  Characteristics

  For the monitoring of proximity to work on productions and mixes.
  
  Small size and powerful and precise.

  Sounds

  The curve response does not bump or hollow, and provides deep bass even lower regime, precise highs and treble permit a reliable stereo image.
  
  The dynamics are very good.

  Overall Opinion

  I've only had them for five days but have been used to working with HR824 that were too powerful for my local, I'm not with these dpays KRK.
  
  In showroom I tried a dozen other speakers in this price range but this one I immediately liked as much for their neutrality as for their power and precision.
