2-way Powered Monitor Speaker System that Delivers Quality Audio and Excellent Cost Performance
The MSP3 Powered Monitor Speaker is a 2-way powered monitor speaker system that delivers quality audio and excellent cost performance. Designed for use in personal music production systems, each unit features a built-in 20-watt amplifier that drives both the 10cm (4 in.) cone and 2.2cm (7/8 in.) tweeter. To facilitate connection with a variety of audio sources, each monitor is equipped with a balanced XLR input, for direct compatibility with professional equipment, a balanced phone jack input and an unbalanced RCA jack input. The MSP3 also features separate volume controls for the Line 1 (RCA jack) input and Line 2 (XLR/phone) input plus High and Low tone controls for sound tailoring.
The enclosure is a bass-reflex type that also incorporates Yamaha's Waveguide Technology for uniform dispersion of the tweeter's high frequencies. Magnetic shielding and compact size allows the monitors to be placed near any type of audio, video or computer equipment. The monitor can also be attached to a mic stand with the optional BMS10A Mic Stand Adapter.

Yamaha MSP3 Powered Desktop Monitor Reviews
9 out of 10

"Great, accurate sound for monitoring my digital piano."
Feature:
I like the volume control knobs on the front--very accessible. There's also high and low equalizers, which I don't seem to need because I like the response flat and accurate. It's also nice to have two volume control levels for the two inputs, which I currently don't use but probably will in the future when I practice along with music.
Quality:
Seems like it's built to last forever. Solid construction.
Value:
Price seems pretty fair. I'm very pleased with the sound for my particular application--amplifying my digital piano in my home, so I don't feel I paid too much.
Desirability:
I like the styling--simple straightforward, professional looking, not too flashy, and delivers great sound.
Sound:
I use a pair of the MSP3 monitors for my Yamaha P80 digital piano and the sound is very accurate and responsive. I feel like practicing even more now that I have good speakers!
Support:
Haven't had to, thankfully, and don't plan to need it.
Overall:
The MSP3s work great for what I need them for--monitoring my piano playing in my apartment. I wonder if they'll be loud enough to play at parties or small gigs? I may have to buy some more powerful speakers when that time comes, but the MSP3s cannot be beat for monitoring my piano sound in my home studio.

"not too bad. check out cymbolicsound.com for samples of mixes that i have done w/ these."
Feature:
I do like the outputs/inputs a lot. I like the flexibility of these, so that I can hook up my computer, sound board, or external sound card. I liked that. I wish it would they would have a headphone jack, but hey, you can't have everything.
Quality:
Cool.
Value:
A bit high for the product.
Desirability:
Hm. Not too sexy.
Sound:
The sound is accurate, as studio monitors should, but they are a bit small. I guess that's just my own opinion, but oh well. Bass response is a bit on the low end. I turn the bass all the way up, so that my final mixes don't sound wacked out. SOMETIMES, these really shine. Maybe I just like bigger speakers in general. For studio monitors, I bet they rock. This is my first experience with monitors; in the past, I just mixed on a home stereo. PEOPLE SAY THAT THE MIX OF MY NEW CD IS WAY BETTER, SO MAYBE YOU SHOULD JUST IGNORE MY NEGATIVE COMMENTS!!! heh. Just listen to them yourself.
Support:
Works fine.
