It's proximity to powered speakers. The buttons are the rear. For me, I do not really drang, as they are not against a wall, I did that reach out ... XLR or Jack or RCA is good, I have a choice, I have dj totu use as appropriate (diffrent sound card, etc.).. I never used the bass, for cons. The sound "basic" suits me perfectly.

SOUNDS

Honestly, the room in which I mix is ​​not acoustically treated, so my rponse is not technically perfect but still ... * sound * dchire its mre! frankly, I have to compare the KRK taient in the same price range, and Tapco prcises more silent, especially with a good image stereo trs trs. Moreover it must be the place, because any dcalage means.

OVERALL OPINION

I use them for 2 months. I'm happy.
