«  very good speaker »

real and positive reviews on these monitors. I wanted small speakers with the best sound possible for an affordable price.

SOUNDS

These speakers have revolutionized my mixes and my way of mixing with its sound rendering of many frequency ranges so all the little sounds from scratch or perceived subtle variations come through with a nice clarity.
Stereo rendering is great- we mix in 3D.
One vulnerable point, in my opinion, I think the bass is too flattened by filtering with the same button behind the speaker.
Frankly I was not expecting much bass on speakers of this size.
But I knit pick and lovers of good well rounded bass will be happy with these speakers.

OVERALL OPINION

I use them for a year already in home studio. I have done several kinds of mix on it, rap, reggae, world, pop accoustic ...
People appreciate the fact that I mix on the speakers when they play their sound on the sound.
These speakers are reliable and I find them robust, massive, looks solid.
In a year no problem.
+ confidence in the sound that can be trusted, speaker manufacturing solid.
the - they heat up a bit after heavy use, the bass is a bit too pronounced.
I will remake this choice without problems if I had to, I accepted its little peculiarities and the mix music in general is very well perceived, it's me and my little Mackie MR5!
