Feature:
They look great and their small size works in my cramped studio. They have some options on the back for things like ground lift and automute, nice features. I heard they just came out with grills for these as well. That's nice. I also dig the lighted KRK logo on the front!

Quality:
Wow is this thing solid!. It's like a little brick. This is cool because the cabinet doesn't rattle or shake or bounce around. The pad on the bottom really grips to the surface (unlike the mackies) so even if they are accidentally bumped they still stay in their proper listening position.

Value:
For their price, I don't think anything comes close. I've owned Events, Mackies, and mixed on Genelecs and M-audio (YUK) at friend's houses, and these just are sooo much nicer and deliver better mixes.

Desirability:
Looks really cool, lighted logo is subtle but nice. Maybe they'll come out with a white pair to match my macbook...

Sound:
For a little monitor, this thing rocks! Very detailed, and a surprising amount of low end. But the proof is in the mix, and mixes translate much better on these than my Mackie 824s. The mackie's are a bit "boomy", and my mixes always sounded thin, as I pulled out bass to compensate for the mackie boom. I got the little VXTs initially to switch between with the mackies and provide another point of reference. I found myself mixing on these exclusively, as details were easier to hear and mixes just sounded better. Anyone wanna buy some 824s?

Ease of Use:
Plug in and go. Plays well, sounds good.

Support:
Never had a problem. KRK has a good website with information and FAQs and stuff like that

Overall:
If I lost these, I'd buy another pair. I might upgrade the the VXT-6 or 8, or maybe add a sub for when I'm monitoring at louder levels or for when I get a bigger mix room...
