Value For Money : Excellent
What characteristics have motivated your choice?

I search for cheap studio monitors. I read the article AudioFanzine and I thought why not ... Without great expectations at the outset.

For what purpose?

computer music, listening and equalization, audio processing ...

What amp / What configuration? ...

No amp, they are active. Sound Card: TC Electronic Desktop 6 konnekt

SOUNDS

The frequency curve is sufficiently neutral?

Oh yes then. Well do not ask the moon for that price, but they do their jobs, just maybe a little more on the bass, but really true monitor speakers and the price is incredible.

The stereo image is good?

Yes, as soon as the investment is when respected, good stereo image.

The sound is clear and precise across the spectrum?

There is a slight bump in the low to 100 Hz, but nothing binding.

The dynamics are respected? ...

These speakers have a good dynamic. They are 20 Watts RMS and sends its serious, good reserve.

OVERALL OPINION

How long have you been using?

For about a year and my mixes have really made a leap forward.

What is so special that you like most and least?

As:
Their neutralitées, they allow a good job and the bass and treble settings on the front of the main speaker.

Minimum:
The headphone jack is useless?? not understand ...
Maybe XLR inputs .. (But I nitpick because, as the price lol)

Did you try many other models before buying it?

Many models but yes HIFI speakers! It has nothing to do, the goal is not the same. Between listening to music in her living room and make it in his home studio, it is not comparable.

How do you rate the quality / price?

The value for money is excellent especially as the purely audio skins, their quality manufacturing and quite remarkable.

With experience, you do again this choice? ...

I quite referrais this choice without hesitation.

(Let's say the only fault I could find but unfortunately, this fault find on almost all speakers of this type, regardless of their price, it is the treatment of basses, for this, it will add a subwoofer.)
