Very good on paper ... a little less attentive. Purchased in late September 2003

SOUNDS

These are my first monitor speakers and I have been guided by the sellers after having had MSP5 Yam listening. I thought these were too much in the midrange and not enough in the bass, it's certainly what motivated them to sell me the Alesis. I can not absolutely say that I regret this purchase, however, it is difficult to make a proper mix for Ambient music. General feeling of softness niveau.Les low frequencies are obviously lacking the bass too cumbersome to puff a little more discrete mediums too. I have no complaints on my part of the treble. Everything is very listenable on gender more dancing and loved the atmosphere they give color to a CD of Diana Cralle (especially on his voice).
I think for some time to buy Yamaha MSP5 I did not want at the time but keeping the Alesis. My opinion is that all s' would balance perfectly. Each has strengths the other missing. Of perfect opposite in fact I could be wrong but I am novice.

OVERALL OPINION

What I find even more disturbing than its color, it is the volume buttons to betray me already after just one year from very poor bill. A real Achilles heel that I have a bit across the throat
