Feature:
Well they look cool, they have balanced 1/4 inch, and unbalanced RCA, and of course they have power amps. Just about what you would hope to get in active studio monitors. They are vented well, and they seem nicely flat in response, so uummm way to go.
Quality:
very nice quality, nice weight, pretty sturdy, I would drop them or knock them around in the backseat of your car of course.
Value:
great value.
Desirability:
well since I have it...it gets a 10 for wanting it!!
Sound:
These speakers sound very nice. They are definitely seeing much use in my studio, and they are small and look cool. The reality is, do they sound better than Genelecs...or Mackies...probably not, but they are very usable, and they're just like anything else, you have to learn how they sound to get the most out of them. For 219.99, you can't beat it, and they are loud!! Buy them, you'll like them, that is, unless you are used to 1300.00 monitoring systems.
Support:
???????????????don't know
Overall:
Like I said before, if you're looking for inexpensive, small monitors, buy these, because they really do sound good, and they are very useful.

Feature:
not many features but who needs them. Most features on monitors result in inacurate mixes. very straightforward build.
Quality:
they sound great never too harsh for long listening. I won't be blasting these monitors at stupid levels so they should last long enough until I can upgrade. However, they don't sound stressed when turned up. I'll always keep these though.
Value:
I am a hip-hop producer. I was mixing on computer speakers before, what a diference monitors make. I'm getting much better mixes now. Good size and color and, for the price they sound perfect. Much better than Event tr5. A must buy for hip-hop production on a budget!!
Desirability:
I would buy two more pairs.
Sound:
the only way to get better sound out of monitors this size is to spend at least $200 more but, if you are willing to spend that much you wouldn't be looking to get something this size. Nice flat sound nothing exagerated which is crutial for getting good mixes.
Overall:
The only thing keeping theses from a perfect score is the fact that the bottom end on these is not so good however, monitors this size usually aren't geared towards sub bass. Just add a sub to the them and you are set!
