"Good sound"

Quality:
Heavy and strong construction. They look good too.

Value:
Excellent monitors for the price. Great for mixing and mastering. Your mixes will sound good on any system.

Sound:
Very warm and clear sound. Sounds better than Mackies that are double the price. The response is flat and accurate, mids and low mids sound full without affecting the sharpness of the highs. I have the Fostex subwoofer but the bass response on these speakers is good also.

About This Product!
Description
The ideal choice for smaller studios requiring nearfield monitoring, the perfectly formed PM0.5 offers 70 watts of bi-amped power and produces great full range performance with exceptional neutrality even at high sound pressure levels. The compact dimensions also enable accurate placement in confined or awkward spaces, with the dispersion from the two way ported enclosure design tailored such that it will deliver a superb sound almost regardless of room acoustics. Features a UFLC 20mm soft dome HF unit and 130mm LF woofer and input gain control.

Exceptional audio performance matched to jaw-dropping good looks.
Fostex strive to design and build studio monitoring systems which enable you to experience your unique sound in all its dimensions. And through tireless research and development, endless measurements and real-world listening tests, Fostex's engineers have achieved this in the form of the beautiful second generation PM-Series.

Capitalizing on Fostex's supreme knowledge of acoustics and speaker engineering, and now offering a brighter, tighter sound, these studio monitors are designed inside out to provide the best monitoring experience, with minimal resonance, sparkling highs and rich, deep lows.

And, with new 'high-gloss' front baffles, they look as stunning as they sound.
