Value For Money :
Excellent
* Which technical specifications motivated your choice? Their size, price, near-field format...
* What do you use them for? Mix, monitoring.
SOUNDS
* Is the frequency response neutral enough? More or less, you need to fiddle some time with the built-in EQ to get the right response.
* Is the dynamic response faithful? Yes
• Is the stereo image good? Yes
* Is the sound clear and accurate across the entire frequency spectrum? Not really, they lack lows and when you increase them a bit, the sound starts to get muddled.
OVERALL OPINION
* How long have you been using the product? About 2 months
* Did you try any other models before buying this product? Unfortunately, no.
* Which feature do you like best/least? Best: Reasonable size for near-field monitoring, price, rather nice finish...
Least: Above all the SOUND...It's true that for the price you shouldn't expect miracles, but you can easily tell these are no KRKs, for example... The sound is relatively neutral for mixing or monitoring, but I think you can get better entry-level speakers for less than an extra 100 bucks.
* How would you rate the product's value for money? They are not expensive, that's for sure, but the quality isn't exceptional either, so their value for money is average.
* Based on your experience, would you buy this product again? No, I needed some monitors quickly, but I should've taken more time to buy them and see what other brands, like M-Audio, have to offer... I'll try to upgrade as soon as possible.
* What do you use them for? Mix, monitoring.
