OktoberOne « Versatile and great Quality / Price ratio »
Published on 08/15/11 at 15:46I was looking for a pair of monitors for a first second hand purchase. I narrowed down my choices to the HS 50 from Yamaha and this one. Reviews of the HS 50 said they were sorely lacking bass. Since I am a tribecore / hardcore I needed bass! I bought them for 200 € second hand.
SOUNDS
The curve is not neutral, I would say that the bass is a little more powerful but it's no big deal for my style, on the contrary! The highs are not super accurate. On the other hand, there aren't any infra-lows, you need to have a sub or a headset and even more if necessary, but this is really knit picking.
The dynamic is very good I find the stereo good as well.
Overall the sound is not aggressive, you can work several hours without your ears tiring out. These are good little boxes, not so small actually .. For a first purchase I am completely satisfied.
PS: If you want to work on pieces that require special attention to the highs such as violins, piano, guitar etc, get something else.
OVERALL OPINION
I use them for three weeks already, I have chosen them for their performance on mediums and lows. I would repeat this choice again!
