- AdlmPublished on 06/23/07 at 05:42 (This content has been automatically translated from French)I chose these speakers for their general appearance by trusting the brand image of ALESIS. The technical seemed good for a decent rate. I needed to mix the group with drums, bass, keyboards, and synth prog. The cross on top of the enclosure is very convenient and the light that turns red when the gain is too high.

These speakers are very far from neutral. Coloration to the lack of bass and dynamics, despite a perfect installation. Boomers face immediately to the slightest touch of the bass drum and everything must be compressed. The clip indicator flashes to a low note digital piano type S90ES.

These speakers are very far from neutral. Coloration to the lack of bass and dynamics, despite a perfect installation. Boomers face immediately to the slightest touch of the bass drum and everything must be compressed. The clip indicator flashes to a low note digital piano type S90ES. The sound is completely different whether you're at 1.50m or 2.50m. We must re-equalize each frequency and as soon as you move to another system, the sound has nothing to do with what is mixed. I programmed a Korg Triton (60 prog personal) on these speakers, at a concert and the sound tech regroove all Equal usual.
OVERALL OPINION
I used these speakers two months time to set a triton extreme, I tried everything to get them to sound worthy of the name, I had a hard time selling them. finally they are parties to 150 € the pair and I immediately bought YAMAHA HS80 which for once is a treat.
A tip: never buy these speakers even listen to music in the toilet. I do not even advise the niche of your dog.See less00 - SupersynthPublished on 10/28/08 at 06:35 (This content has been automatically translated from French)Speaker for monitoring homestudio

Not enough models for comparison. Good overall quality. Big problem of reliability. A capacitor is overheated and each speaker gets default (flashes blue and sound!) Known issue of English website: http://www.fixya.com/support/t244430-alesis_m1_active_monitor_amp_circuitry
Product difficult to use!
OVERALL OPINION
Used for about a year. Price / quality ratio a fair bit since it does not work all the time!20 - AnonymousPublished on 04/14/09 at 09:18 (This content has been automatically translated from French)Cf overall opinion

OVERALL OPINION
I publish this opinion only because these monitors have been worth-t in by people who obviously bought it for mixing prcis, which is not at all their crneau.
In home studio I find them perfect, because they sound very fragrant, a small hollow in mdiums, an image a little EXAGRES, lgre a bump in the bass, I find a perfect to give confidence in a production session.
Not to be used for mixing, of course. In this context, it has a lot of default. But for use in production, costs "for fun" or to watch a movie, they are really good in this price range.
So those who know why they achtent, I say "go ahead". …Read moreCf overall opinion

So those who know why they achtent, I say "go ahead". For those seeking more prcises speakers in a budget of 300 euros, take plutt the Yamaha HS-50M. They are more neutral, you are more likely to have a mix coutable with the alesis.
Note that my rating does not absolutely reflte absolute quality of the product, it is relative to other opinions that have come down compltement these monitors and repel people for whom they would be more than adapates Genelec or other tenors of the bar.
A word.
EDIT (04/14/09)
There is nothing, I tried but I can not. As the first monitors to replace your computer or your speakers panasonic multimedia, fine. For all others, you do not have to monitor in the stud has just happening, but even to produce it's horrible, it's clutter, no depth, it is soft, a fatigue You Save frankly and pay you better!
In order to obtain Focal solo6be me to finally be able to trust what I do.See less00
