"For the money when you are on a budget these monitors work."

Feature:
Not much to say, it's a pair of studio monitors.

Quality:
The product showed up, blemish free, haven't really tested it out as far as taking it anywhere short of my tiny home studio so I can't give an honest assesment of how rugged this thing is.

Value:
Decent pair of monitors for about a hundred? I'd say it's worth it if you are a home studio on a budget.

Desirability:
errr...there is a bass......hole in the back...not sure if I'd want to do anything with it (in regards to sex appeal). It has...a blue let

Sound:
Good for the money, keep in mind reference monitors should be used for accuracy so that a the user will have a good point of reference to mix and tweak the EQ. I understand some folks are complaining about not having enough bass but these speakers were meant to give a neutral sound rather than a bassy or tinny sound. They do what they were meant to do for a reasonable price I couldn't ask for more.

Ease of Use:
If you don't know how to hook these up or turn on a switch then perhaps it's time to reconsider.

Overall:
Obviously if my budget improves I'll be picking up a better pair but for what I'm doing now these are adequate.

"The Perfect Monitor Speakers that deliver what small studios need."

Feature:
Could be better with EQ controls, The rest is wonderful.

Quality:
Wood or MDF is the best cabinet for speakers.

Value:
Every dollar you paid, you hear it.

Desirability:
Of cos, i want it and I got it at a good price.

Sound:
In this price range, I never expect these two compact monitors can deliver such good sweet sound and bass response even without the bass boost on. NO BOXY SOUND ANYMORE>>>.For this price, you will find the sound is too good to be true when you compare to the other bigger brothers like Yamaha, Mackie, KRK and Samson etc...I have scouted for 3 days before buying this. Frankly, No regrets after enjoting countless hours of playback. This Monitor Rocks...

Ease of Use:
Plug and play...Whats more.But remember to adjust the voltage behind to your country's standard voltage output of 230v or 110v.

Support:
ok...good

Overall:
For budget studios with small rooms, this is the perfect one for you and you wont regret every dollar spent when you play and listen. THere are some brands that tell you everything under the sun but give you disappoint eventually when the speakers worn out. M-audio dont lie and disappoint when you just get this monitors and listen..Well Done, M-audio.

About This Product!
Description
From Our Catalog
Recording engineers and music producers around the world rely on M-Audio reference monitors to insure that their mixes are accurate. The StudioPro 3 active monitors bring that same standard of audio fidelity right to your desktop. Custom-tuned cabinets, optimized speaker design, and advanced crossover technology combine with generous built-in amplification to deliver the best sound you can get in monitors this size. Complete with magnetic shielding to prevent interference with computer and video monitors, StudioPro 3 speakers deliver great audio experiences from your music and multimedia applications. They're also great for traveling.

Professional Standards
Most small, inexpensive speakers simply don't have the design and material standards found in professional studio monitors. The StudioPro 3s change that, delivering the same M-Audio technology and attention to detail we put into our monitors used in studios around the world. The StudioPro 3s deliver a host of features not typically found in monitors priced this affordably-MDF rather than plastic cabinets, internal acoustic foam for better bass response, custom port design for optimal efficiency and more.

Stereo Auxiliary Input and Headphone Output
For maximum flexibility, we have included a stereo "Aux" input which allows you to plug in a secondary audio source (such as your portable music player) in addition to the main RCA inputs in the back. The volume control works on both inputs simultaneously. Additionally, there is a stereo headphone output next to the "Aux" jack that mutes the sound coming out of the speakers and redirects it to your headphones.

Natural Bass
The custom bass reflex port design discharges very low-frequency signals and delivers a smooth, substantial bass response. Need more? The rear-panel Bass Boost control gives you additional low-frequency gain and makes the monitors versatile for different spaces and listening preferences.

Speaker Stands
High-frequency audio signals tend to be fairly directional. That's why we've included stands that help point your StudioPro 3s directly at your ears for an optimal listening "sweet spot."

Enclosure
The StudioPro 3's enclosure plays an important role. In order to provide more stable performance, we used a special medium-density fiberboard (MDF) and unique interior reinforcement designed to absorb vibration and impact generated under extreme conditions. Additionally, our innovative cabinet includes carefully placed acoustic material that makes the StudioPro 3s sound much bigger than they are'resulting in a smooth, natural bass response.
