I bought these speakers because I needed to powered speakers, connect the output of DIGI O1, to the mix of films. I completed a feature film on it, listening to (very) nearby.
I admit that the price I was very motivated when I purchase an urgent need to listen properly and flat.

SOUNDS

The bass are present, with two bass reflex ports on the front. During a mix, I deliberately cut out the bass EQ for fear that they not go on listening to a TV ... In fact, you have to do with the fact that PM 05 is the side of generous.
The stereo image is very precise, careful placement and alignemnt. It can be fatal!

The entire spectrum is sharp and clear ... Always gaffe placement, careful to have the tweeters at ear height.
In terms of dynamics, no worries, it pummeled. Of course, remember that they are listening proximity is not meant to sound to a room. But sitting in front of the speakers, we take what is in your ears!

OVERALL OPINION

I bought them last July.
What I like most is that they develop the dynamics and overall sound, the whole course of their reported sales prices.
I already worked on Genelec 1030, but hey it's not the same price and they are flatter at the low. However, I remain very satisfied.
In my opinion, the price / quality ratio is the best argument for these speakers. To start developing a home studio on a tight budget without compromising on quality, they seem ideal. In addition to their small size allows them to integrate easily into a small space and thus be able to offer a placement, orientation nickel to the listener.

I put 9 / 10, because perfection does not exist and then because the price / quality ratio is tip top ...
