Victoria V. « tapping complement interresting »
Published on 08/23/12 at 15:05The quality / price ratio has motivated my choice. And an article in a magazine that compared to the famous NS10.
For professional studio use, in addition to other audiences (Dynaudio BM 15, Adam complete system SX, KRK, Cabasse ...)
For this purpose (complementary) to mix, I found to my taste.
But unusable for mastering, where the spectrum is too biased ...
SOUNDS
These speakers are definitely not neutral. But moreover, I was not looking necessarily neutral, and when you go to this type of product (at 500 € the pair nine) do not expect neutrality!
However, they are very interesting for the balance and placement in the mix (I think the vocals, guitar, drums etc ...)
The stereo image must surely be interesting when they are away a lot, in any case because of their size, they were not enough in my room to get a good stereo image.
on the other hand must spend some time on their investment and the "calibration" (more or less acute etc ...) before use.
For my part, I fell much treble if their use became very difficult and tiring for a whole day.
Then you have to take care of their excess serious and poor control of low frequency, which can lead to errors in mixing (bass drum, bass ...)
OVERALL OPINION
I used them for nearly two years. And I listened and tried many models.
I like the sound "yamaha" for the control of a mix, very "hard" fairly representative of the stereo listening to Mr. and Mrs. everyone ... But these plays do not seem adequate for professional use.
Their faults (see above) can lead to errors mix, and you have to "know well" never to be mistaken.
But I think the value for money always interesting, and I was quite satisfied to complement listening.
However, I sold them because I'm looking for NS10, which are "harder" but less flattering ....
