MGR/Leon « Fostex PM0.5 Active Studio Monitors »
Published on 08/04/04 at 15:00I bought these speakers (pair) from Cookes Band Instruments, Norwich, UK. I was looking for active monitoring speakers to put a Line6 POD2.3 through. I was advised to listen to these speakers, due to their flat response, and good all-round sound. I tried them, and they did what I wnted them to do.
Cost: £249.00
The sound is natural. The bass is tight, yet smooth, with a strong sense of clarity. The bass parts in music are easily audible. The mid frequencies are smooth and well balanced, it is also extremely clear. The treble is crisp, but is also just rounded at the very top end, as not to be annoying, or obtrusive.
There is great soundstaging, and amazing detail in the stereo field.
The overall sound is very warm, and smooth, but highly detailed. A great sound.
Clean POD sounds, are awesome.
There could have been more connections at the back, this would allow me to connect devices more easily, but 1/4" TRS jack is acceptable.
There is a separate volume on each speaker, wih makes it hard o get the same volume on each, but careful twiddling will sort it out. The volume could have been on the front, to make life easier.
The units seem incredibly robust. Everything looks tight, and well held. The control is solid. There is no rattling at higher volumes.
These speakers are a must to listen to, if your on a budget of £250. They sound absoultely amazing. If your going to mix music, or play POD, or other type units through them, then these are the thing.
Warm, clean, tight, and detailed, awesome!
