Feature:
The Mackie have individual switches for filtering highs & lows by +/- 2db or 0 (flat). Input level control is nearly flush - impossible to break.

Quality:
Solid construction, steel exterior, very little plastic. Solid reputation of Mackie quality.

Value:
Mackies for the price of the others - it's a no-brainer.

Desirability:
More professional looking than the others.

Sound:
I did a side-by-side comparison with KRK, Behringer, Yamaha & M-Audio. The Mackie absolutely blew them away.

Ease of Use:
3 inputs - 2 balanced or 1 unbalanced

Support:
I don't know yet - that's a good thing....

Overall:
I don't see ever replacing these monitors. The size and sound quality are all exactly what I need for my home studio.
