Introducing the Tuned Reference monitors. Their names tell the whole story: These monitors are precision tuned to provide flat frequency response and uncolored sound, giving you a true sonic reference for mixing.

You might think that this level of mix precision comes at a high price. But thanks to a powerful new ultra-efficient amplifier (actually two of them, since these are biamplified systems), we're able to bring you high definition, non-fatiguing monitoring at prices so low they're downright silly. But don't let the cost fool you: The TR series monitors are filled with time-tested Event technology, and designed by the same engineering team behind our full line of critically acclaimed monitors.

Event TR5 Tuned Reference Biamplified Studio Monitors Reviews

"Best value for the money."
Feature:
The TR5's are just basic monitors without a bunch of fancy setable knobs to confuse you. On/off and input sensitivity. The three different input options are nice. You can connect almost any device to them.

Quality:
The cabinets are nice looking and all the connections and fittings are tight.

Value:
I though these were the best value for the money. I paid $255 out the door for the pair.

Desirability:
No sex appeal for me, just the most bang for the buck in the price range I was seeking.

Sound:
I'm using as a live monitor for my Korg PA1X Pro. I like the fullness the TR5's give my vocals. Bass is fine and natural for all but the thumpers, mid-range is great and the highs are OK although I notice that the high pitched percussion items like the wood blocks and such you hear in Island type stuff doesn't cut though like they did with the small satelite/subwoofer setup I was using. I like the TR5's better for overall sound for my application.

Support:
Haven't needed support yet.

Overall:
I believe these TR5's will suffice for my application as a keyboard monitor. I have great headphones for mixing on my HD recorder but I look forward to hearing the final mix live with these.

Event TR5 Monitors Customer Review
Feature:
I dig the multiple input options. Right now I'm using RCA, but I may change that at some point as my setup grows. These do what you need em to.

Quality:
Totally solid. One small blemish on the front (where the ring around the speaker is), but I mean TINY, like the size of a pinhead...not bothering me at all

Value:
Great stuff for the money...

Sound:
sounds great to me...sitting here grinning like a kid listening to my mixes plus my favorite CDs! Brings a tear to my eye!

Support:
??? Haven't used them yet, so don't know
