Best value: Excellent
Bha ... of Active Monitors ... What normal ...
4 balanced input on XLR or jack 6.35 mm.
-10 unbalanced input on RCA connector.
Power button on the back (which annoys me ... but hey, that's a detail ... especially the power LED is it before ... no coment ...)
Level knob on the back ... again ... brief ... other more famous manufacturers make the same blunders and no one says anything ...
I used to mix some demos at home, I acquired a pair recently and they rotate often enough right now ... in fact I have heard those of a friend often enough before, and I could compare them with the Fostex PM1, the tannoy, I never dared to put the ears in boxes in a Mackie or Alesis knows not their equipment in consoles or treatment, I was never convinced by these brands ... m'enfin ...
Otherwise, I often mix with a pair of NS10 ... and it is downright exhausting ... very interesting because it magnified all the defects of a mix, but otherwise it is difficult to exploit in the mix ...

SOUNDS

I personally find very clear treble, midrange and also not using, we can work with long without a head full. for listening to a lot of music in different styles, it's very correct.
A serious very well proportioned. unlike the Fostex PM1 home that I found downright typed hi-fi with blocked on the loudness function ON ... pitiful these boxes ...
beautiful rendition of transitional ... little or no breath ... is just to connect to the real catch and do not worry ...

For it must be against ear ... must be very demanding to mix it to what we do a good job ... everything sounds right in, both good and less ... you just reach a good result to be sure it will really sound, otherwise it will sound not that great or not at all on other forums ... but after all it's about more than ear-quality speakers that ...

OVERALL OPINION

I drooled to listen to a pair of Genelec 8040 home ... but my wallet was right to me ... I must say I'm not disappointed, the price / quality ratio is unbeatable ... a comfortable working that hard to find on other products in this range for the price ... a very good addition to the NS10 at least for me ...
