Verified Customer zZounds has verified that this reviewer made a purchase from us.
These are solid units overall. The sound is crisp on High and MId-range when used with a powered sub and no additional sound filter (EQs, Range expander, ect...). When played alone (amp only) they sound well rounded and full.
Sound
These units have crisp and subtle mids with punchy and non-irritating lows (no brain rattle). At louder volumes, highs are not overpowered by lows. These sound great across all music genres.
Features
These are plug and play units. The best feature is they played right out of the box and and are still playing.
Ease of Use
Simple. Plug, Love Repeat
Quality
Units are solid. Units need cover protectors for road use.
Value
These are a little pricey for non-powered units, but are well worth the price.
Manufacturer Support
I have not had the pleasure of working with customer support, which is a great feature.
The Wow Factor
These look classy in appearance and do not overpower the eyes in high light venues, they blend well in low light settings and sound outstanding.
