Product Description

zZounds is an
authorized Edirol dealer

The MA-15D stereo reference monitors are ideal for computer-based recording artists seeking a high-quality, powerful set of reference speakers to use in a relatively confined space. The MA-15D's offer a wide-range spectrum and crystal-clear audio reproduction.

Features:
Bass Enhancer

24-bit/192kHz support, S/PDIF optical & coaxial input

Subwoofer output port for bass boost

15 watts per channel

3 independent source inputs: 1/8 in. line, RCA pin line (L/R), and S/PDIF (optical & coaxial)

Front-controlled bass, treble, and 2 independent volume controls

100 mm (4 in.) woofer + 50 mm (2 in.) tweeter, 2 way bass-reflex enclosure

1/4 in. headphones port

Magnetically shielded

The MA-15Ds feature a built-in Bass Enhancer, which operates on psychoacoustic principles that converts low frequencies into a series of overtones the human ear cannot distinguish from the original low frequencies. This allows the listener to perceive bass frequencies outside of the normal range of the speaker cone, without overdriving the woofer. With the Bass Enhancer the MA-15Ds offer a strong low-end in a very compact set of reference speakers. In addition the MA-15Ds offer a Sub-Out port, to connect a subwoofer.

The MA-15Ds accept input from digital sources through either the coaxial or optical S/PDIF ports, supporting up to 24-bit/192kHz sources. With this, you can connect digital sources directly to your speakers, keeping an unadulterated audio signal all the way to the power amplifier in your speakers. Hear exactly what you have recorded!

The MA-15Ds offer conveniently placed Volume and Tone controls. While a large studio setup typically uses a mixer to control output level to the speakers, compact desktop setups can rarely afford the space a mixer requires. This is not an issue with the MA-15Ds, as you can adjust your output volume and tone right on the front of the speaker.

You can also connect two different sources directly into the MA-15Ds, allowing you to listen to audio from any two line-level sources. You can have both your computer and your stereo connected to the MA-15Ds, for example. The MA-15Ds offer independent volume control for each of these inputs, effectively taking the place of a small desktop mixer for monitoring.

You can also plug headphones directly into the MA-15Ds and mix without disturbing other people. Plugging in headphones automatically defeats the speakers, allowing you to mix without disturbing others, and without having to disconnect anything in your setup.

The MA-15Ds are magnetically shielded for close proximity to your computer monitor. zZounds is an authorized dealer of Edirol products.

zZounds has verified that this customer bought this product from us. "This is a monitor for educated aficionados of quality audio with a musical performance background."

Sound: Dec 11, 2007 - I just received delivery of my Edirol Ma-15D monitors not 1/2 hour ago and could not wait to set them up. My first impression upon removing them from the box is excellent and detailed construction with solid controls you expect on professional-grade audio equipment. The packaging is very good to protect them during delivery. I am former musician who played 3 instruments, a former mobile entertainer, and now a multimedia producer and VO talent who already owns pro equipment for my home studio and favors unblemished natural sound and knows what live instruments should sound like. I am also properly running these monitor with a Behringer 1204 FX audio mixer without clipping or distorting signals and without extra signal drain from devices like an iPod or cheap PC audio card which are not designed to drive this type of equipment. Be prepared to be blown away at the clarity and natural reproduction you will get from these monitors. Every fine detail of each instrument is there to be heard, the highs and mid-range are clear and crisp, the bass is not overpowering from the unnatural delivery of a sub-woofer. This is a speaker for educated aficionados of quality audio with common sense on proper EQ techniques. My home studio is now back up and running after losing my old BOSE monitors...YES...these are replacing equal-sized BOSE speakers! Feature: It might be nice to have a clip indicator but I never overdrive my speakers. Value: Everyone is selling this product withing a dollar of the posted price with free delivery. Manufacturer Support: No support was needed. The Wow Factor: The design is very clean, professional, with a classic style that will make it look in place in any setting. Overall: I hope to keep these a very long time.

Style of Music: Dance, Jazz, Ballroom, Classical, Ambient, Instrumentals, Acoustic,

"Don't Believe the Hype!!"

Sound: I run a recording department for an international music company. I don't own these....I use KRK monitors. My good friend & colleague owned a pair of them. He constantly needed to repair them, and the low frequencies were basically non-existent. These are NOT professional grade at all, as previous reviews suggest (nor is any of the other gear listed in his review). These are 1 step better than computer speakers, they will not offer a realistic response at all. What you hear come out of these will be DRASTICALLY different than on a home or car stereo....Beware, don't believe the hype. Save your money. My friend ended up buying a set of KRK's and literally threw these out his window. Feature: Features are standard Ease of Use: Very, very, very easy to use. A monkey could set these up Quality: Quality is very poor. Value: They're as cheap as should be. Manufacturer Support: Roland/Edirol/Boss does have good support The Wow Factor: If someone tried to give me these for free, I would decline. Overall: Save your money.....

Style of Music: Jazz/ Hip-Hop
