Feature:
Good features for the money

Quality:
Good value for the money. They're cheap, but well worth $70

Value:
Good bang for the buck.

Desirability:
Basic

Sound:
For what they are they work good. We use them for non-linear editing system. They are better than computer speakers, better built, not hi-fidelity. We looked at some of the more expensive ones that sounded a little better but for three times the price I thought whatever. We bought the MS16's

Ease of Use:
Easy to use. Everything's labeled on the speaker.

Support:
No

Overall:
Hope it lasts several years

Value:
Well, they're really cheap, so even if they don't sound good, you can use them for plenty of applications other than mixing and critical listening.

Sound:
You get what you pay for. These are more like mid-range computer speakers than audio monitors. They do that duty fine. But they are not for mixing or critical listening. Bass is weak (I'm not looking for big bass, just a somewhat flat frequency response down to 90 Hz or so, and these definitely don't have that) and they rattle like mad at certain frequencies.

Support:
They didn't seem to care that I was really displeased and wouldn't consider an exchange of some sort or some kind of credit.

Perfect sound production which you can never imagine Behringer can get this far. Hell with other BIG BRANDS when you can save hundreds and thousands by not looking at brands but listening..truthfully/.

Support:

Overall:
Listen and not look. MS16 is the truth to monitoring your production.

Feature:
I'm going to give features a 10 for several reasons. My (10) rating is based on what all they included on these speakers for under $60. You get bass and treble control, there is a 1/4 mic jack on the front--with its own volume control, and on the rear there are two more sets of inputs. One being RCA, and the other one is a 1/8 jack. You can have three connections to these speakers at one time. Plus the size of the monitors allows them to set nicely into a desktop setup without taking much space. Also keep in mind that these monitors aren't "new" per say. These particular monitors are actually the old "Roland Micro Monitors" with the Behringer name. They're the exact same thing.

Quality:
Quality is very good for the price range. Again, lower frequencies (when using keyboards) can cause distortion.

Value:
For less than $60 truely a "great value". They're worth every penny. Even if you don't do studio work, these would make a great substitute for cheap (good sounding) computer speakers, or anything you want to hook up to them (ipods, CD players, ect).

Desirability:
Great sex appeal...:) They got a clean design to them, and just looking at them you can't help but think-- "Hmmmmmm how do those puppies sound?"

Sound:
The sound is pretty good. Keep in mind these are "budget" monitors, and for $60.00 they're well worth it. My only complaint about them is how they handle low frequencies. I have to back off on the bass when I'm using my synths. However, when using my Fostex digital 8 track (MR-8B) they sound quite nice!

Ease of Use:
Very easy to use. There's nothing to them. Plug them into the wall, connect your gear, and push the power button :)

Support:
I've contacted them regarding other products and service was always good.

Overall:
I plan on being satisfied with them as long as they "continue to work". When they break--then I'll be unsatisfied. If they broke today I'd buy another pair. For the price you can't go wrong. Well worth it.

Sound:
They get excellent sound from these speakers, for the price you can't beat it $59.00 is worth every penny, I'm using these speakers w/ my cry baby 535Q wah & my zoom GFX-8 pedal lines run straight out of the GFX-8 L/R jacks into the L/R RCA's & it makes these speakers sound like a full blown stack even at loud levels I thought they would distort like crazy once I turned them up I was wrong it sounded even better like an amp being turned up with plenty of practice volume also can pacth my sound into the mixer w/ the supplied cable & record my sound I hardly use my amp after buying these

Support:
no

Overall:
This is worth every penny & I wouls replace it if it stays the same price you can't go wrong for the price of these speakers
