Feature:
There are 2 design flaws:
1. The volume knob on the back sticks out like giant pimple on a cow's butt. I expect these will break off or get bent - not road-worthy.
2. The pictures you see with the mic boom stand mounted on top is marketing hype and EV's engineering blunder. They didn't take into account the weight of the boom+mic when designing the pivot joint. It can't be tightened sufficiently. Additionally the pivot is made of cheesy plastic. When I wrote to EV about this, they ignored me which is why I'm writing this review. They'll work fine on top of a dedicated mic stand, but figure another $30 into the price.
Quality:
Overall sound and construction quality is OK for the money. Mounting hardware is a joke.
Value:
If I were rating just the sound, it would be higher - especially for the money. Factoring in the lame hardware and it gets a lower score.
Desirability:
The appeal of this monitor is that it can be conveniently mounted on a mic stand and then a boom mounted on top. As mentioned earlier - this can't really be done.
Sound:
I purchased 2 EVID 3.2 SOS for monitoring acoustic guitar and vocals. For the money, they sound OK... a little boxy on the low mids, but clear enough on the high end.
Support:
Wrote to EV about mounting hardware and got no reply.
Overall:
The speakers work fine on dedicated stands. I'll keep them but they are a big disappointment.
