SOUNDS

This speaker is a true measuring tool. I could tell you very quickly without taking for BRELES, you can hear ALL the best that the recorded sound can / wants to give and I finish my test.

The sound off the speakers as only a few speakers are capable of. Depth and width are a very high level (I will not play "which speaker very high level is the best", it would really try to en_ler mosquitoes).

What struck me immediately is the powerful bass and EXTREMELY into the enclosure. The basses are changing on a hot basis and are portrayed as one would expect from a real bass. Toms and other big banks have their volume, their woods, their ... everything! Stack organs on guitars, on banjo, on vocals, on drums and kettle-drums and enjoy the definition of each of the instruments in all the splendor of the past, pollution of the signal from another instrument. It commands respect.

Until we discover the dynamics. This is perhaps why, the best pair of monitors on the market. There's cannon shots that go with the authentic sound. The lower you fly in the belly when needed / wanted. A high volume, it may remove a tile of your booth.

Continue on a medium that is fine and that carries emotion and every detail, whether on an instrument or voice.

Keep a sharp that is perfectly straight and finely structured, allowing in a thunder of cymbals, to recognize exactly WHAT cymballe encountered and where.

I made you a picture? This speaker is one of the best speakers I've tried. It fits perfectly in the large family of ATC SCM50 and other fact8 PMC. Nothing is cut, everything is shown and this contributes to a sense of incredible reality.

OVERALL OPINION

Pregnant excellent monitoring, but also an excellent stereo speaker, which can happen to any addition of subwoofer and really reveal the full potential of your favorite albums. When you see the prices charged by competitors, the perf / price ratio is just incredibly good (because, in addition, the amp is already there), although I agree it is not given. Hard to beat.
