« Good  monitor for proximity listening »

Published on 05/16/11 at 02:52
What characteristics have motivated your choice?

The many possibilities of digital and analog connections.
Vents in front cause less problems of proximity in the smallest spaces&nbsp;
Their linear frequency response&nbsp;

SOUNDS

The frequency curve is fairly neutral, even if a subwoofer can be expected as for all the studio monitors under 10 inches.
They have an EQ on the back I personally recommend for people who like to mix strong decrease of one or two DB treble.

OVERALL OPINION

I used them for 3 years for mixing music and post-production.
Now I have Dynaudio but I use Roland as secondary which I still often return to due their precision in the treble and upper midrange.

The quality / price is very good. Obviously these are not the Dynaudios' but still worth the 400euros new (pair)

<div>I would buy the same model without hesitation even now to make a surround (If you sell sent me an email thank you (max 250E pair)</div><div>
