About This Product!
Description
From Our Catalog
E-MU's new PM5 Precision Monitor has been designed from the ground up to deliver hyper-accurate audio in a compact design. From its custom audiophile amplifiers (Class-A input and MOSFET output stages) to its world-class drivers and premium cabinet, the PM5 offers superior imaging and hi-end transient detail with linear frequency response rivaling compact nearfield monitors over twice the price. Professional features like overload protection, balanced/unbalanced inputs, and treble, bass and input sensitivity controls ensure that the PM5 will seamlessly integrate into any studio environment.

Features:
Radiused edges reduce cabinet edge diffraction to provide superior imaging

Premium neodymium soft dome high-frequency driver delivers unsurpassed high frequency performance

Dual-mode LED shows power status and indicates when overload protection circuitry engages to prevent damage to drivers

Premium glass fiber low-frequency driver delivers outstanding linear response

Solid cabinet design features 1 in. thick baffle to eliminate internal resonance

Flow-optimized port provides low distortion and articulate bass

Custom 40W/40W bi-amped power section (with discrete Class-A input stage, MOSFET output stages and active crossover) has been carefully tuned to minimize aural fatigue and maximize audio precision

Balanced Neutrik (XLR and 1/4 in.) and unbalanced RCA inputs provide connections to all of your studio equipment

Treble, Bass and input Sensitivity controls allow you to calibrate the PM5 to your specific acoustic environment and set input levels

"Crystal sound and decent bass in a tiny space"
Feature:
Small and compact and has pretty much every connection and bell and whistle. I'm running balanced, out of my MOTU and leave all my settings at defualt and run level at 12 o'clock(it's plenty loud). For something so small it has great bass and I hear from the magazines that a matching subwoofer is coming.

Quality:
It's built like a tank. Heavy and dense feeling. Very industrial looking and I like the blue light.

Value:
There are tons of cheaper ones nowdays like the Egosys I used to have but these are built way better, and have that dry sound that I wanted. It's definitely worth the money.

Sound:
The way i'd decribe it is Clear, Open and Dry. I heard these at a friends home studio so he sold me.

Support:
No problems so can't say. They had great support before when I called them about their old synth stuff.

Overall:
I've had and used tons of EMU gear and they always makes great stuff at good prices. Just wish they'd make all their new computer stuff for the Mac too. Come on EMU stop being so "Creative".

"Great speaker for home studio."
Feature:
Has all the connections you need.

Quality:
Built like a tank - really.

Value:
Well worth the $$$.

Desirability:
Cool blue lights and metal flake cabinets look good on my desk.

Sound:
Very revealing speaker. Flat as you want them to be. They don't fatigue your ears at reasonable levels. That said, these things can crank out distortion free sound at higher than safe levels. I bought these for my home studio and now prefer them to the $1000 plus ones we use at work. Hooked them up to a M-audio Fast Track Pro.

Ease of Use:
It's a monitor.

Support:
Have not had to use yet.

Overall:
If they keep on working then maybe forever.
