"Not what you may think"

Feature:
Good placement of the controls and digital hookup.

Quality:
The speaker with the controls bleeds air through the buttons so it's not sealed as well as I would like.

Value:
If your liiking for some computer monitors with digital hookups for games or to listen to music, then these are good. other than that you can get better

Desirability:
The cases are wood (This is good)

Sound:
These have a very good sound for computer monitors but the are not up to the task of a good studio monitor. Sound gets distorted when there is alot of bass.

Overall:
Depends on what your looking for. If you want some good studio monitors I suggest getting KRK Rockit monitors, either the RP5 $300 a pair, RP6 $400 a pair or RP8 $500 a pair. You do not want these to mix on unless you want a bargin comparison set

About This Product!
Description
From Our Catalog
The DM-20 speakers each feature 20 watts per channel. Perfect for use with Roland/BOSS digital studios and instruments, computer-based setups and more. Magnetically shielded black, real wood cabinets. Eliminate the line-loss and hum that can occur when using analog cabling - resulting in a more accurate reflection of your mix.

No one likes to reach around to the back of a speaker. Now you can adjust each input's volume - along with the Treble and Bass - right from the front of the speaker. The power is also located on the front, along with a stereo headphones jack for silent monitoring. The DM-20 also offers independent transformers and power amps for each speaker cabinet.

Connections include 2 separate line inputs for mixing 2 sources with separate volume controls and a choice of digital or analog (stereo miniature and RCA) inputs.

Compact Monitors with Sleek Cabinet Design
Whether placed in a studio or computer-based setup, the DM-Series new black finish and real wooden cabinets give these speakers a look befitting of monitors costing much more. But it's not just about looks; the cabinet is also designed to perfectly compliment the amp and speakers, resulting in the best possible sound.

24-bit/96kHz Digital Inputs
Thanks to their coaxial and optical digital inputs, the DM-10 and '20 eliminate the line-loss and hum that can occur when using analog cabling'resulting in a more accurate reflection of your mix. These 24-bit/96kHz digital inputs are ideal for use with Roland and BOSS digital studios, or for connecting a variety of digital gear including a computer sound card.

Convenient Front-Mounted Controls
No one likes to reach around to the back of a speaker. That's why Roland placed all the essential controls on the front panel. Now you can adjust each input's volume, along with the Treble and Bass right from the front of the speaker. The power is also located on the front, along with a stereo headphones jack for silent monitoring.
