"Dont waste your time"

Feature:
the bass boost is a nice touch.

Quality:
M-audio blows. In my life I have ordered three pairs of faulty monitors from them. One pair came from here, Zzounds was prompt to ship a replacement which I have been using ever since, but occasionally a channel will go out or there will be crackling, etc. The sound is good but the production of their products is cheap. Spend your money on a legit company, and follow the saying "buy cheap, buy twice".

Value:
if you pay money for something that is supposed to work, it should work. M-audio doesn't seem to care about this. Ive had,like i said, three incidents with this company, so I don't think this is a fluke.

Desirability:
A pair that would work more than 6 months would be nice..

Sound:
Good sound quality for the price.

Ease of Use:
plug and play, very simple.

Support:
support is decent on their site ( Ive had to deal with them a few times), but they really never have a solution for their products being corporate crap.

Overall:
Please don't waste your time and energy with this phony company. Save up a little more cash and get something solid and reliable.

"Not bad...not bad"

Feature:
Pretty much just a bass switch, that doesnt really do anything anyway, and a volume control.

Quality:
Sometimes the line in jack goes out on me, but toher than that good.

Value:
Good for small home studios for the price. But i reccommend to pay a little more a get some ones with some bass.

Desirability:
The color scheme is kinda cool, and has a blue LED light as the volume control.

Sound:
Sounds good, nice and clear, but really no bass at all.

Ease of Use:
Really easy.

Support:
Havent had any problems really.

Overall:
Not bad in general. Like I said, if you want some bass spend a little more money and buy some better ones. Overall good though, for sound quality.

About This Product!
Description

Professional Standards
Most small, inexpensive speakers simply don't have the design and material standards found in professional studio monitors. The StudioPro 3s change that, delivering the same M-Audio technology and attention to detail we put into our monitors used in studios around the world. The StudioPro 3s deliver a host of features not typically found in monitors priced this affordably-MDF rather than plastic cabinets, internal acoustic foam for better bass response, custom port design for optimal efficiency and more.

Stereo Auxiliary Input and Headphone Output
For maximum flexibility, we have included a stereo "Aux" input which allows you to plug in a secondary audio source (such as your portable music player) in addition to the main RCA inputs in the back. The volume control works on both inputs simultaneously. Additionally, there is a stereo headphone output next to the "Aux" jack that mutes the sound coming out of the speakers and redirects it to your headphones.

Natural Bass
The custom bass reflex port design discharges very low-frequency signals and delivers a smooth, substantial bass response. Need more? The rear-panel Bass Boost control gives you additional low-frequency gain and makes the monitors versatile for different spaces and listening preferences.

Speaker Stands
High-frequency audio signals tend to be fairly directional. That's why we've included stands that help point your StudioPro 3s directly at your ears for an optimal listening "sweet spot."

Enclosure
The StudioPro 3's enclosure plays an important role. In order to provide more stable performance, we used a special medium-density fiberboard (MDF) and unique interior reinforcement designed to absorb vibration and impact generated under extreme conditions. Additionally, our innovative cabinet includes carefully placed acoustic material that makes the StudioPro 3s sound much bigger than they are'resulting in a smooth, natural bass response.
