They are the size I needed, vented front placeable so close to a wall power switch and settings are on the front and not a detail! Indeed rise, go behind the speakers every time you want to turn it on, play on the volume ... etc ... it's very heavy. Here everything is before you and that changes everything.

SOUNDS

You can spend hours in front, they are so nice that your ears do not tire as fast as other monitors. The dynamic is true although I feel somewhat rebalanced. The frequencies of low end (bass) are not very good, so I put 9. Indeed, they are a bit exaggerated (and ends up on a weaker system different listening) and also a bit messy, but given the size of monitors is more than normal. And finally: There's the bass! it is rather surprising.
Power level it rocks!

OVERALL OPINION

4 months that I use. I'm beginning to know them well and they really fit in my home studio is a good compromise and super c heavy construction, I put them often in the ass of my electronic drum module volume and almost fully: it fuck it and not move a muscle. These monitors cashing without flinching. For the mix they are very nice but beware of the bass response that sounds as if balanced on the A5 it lacks a little potato on the other system.
