Sound: For the price, and the features, this is a great monitor. its is incredibly flat and accurate, a truthful monitor. I have owned a pair of these since they were first introduced, and while i have used others, these have become the pair my ears first turn to. Feature: digital inputs. why is this not yet a standard feature in the digital world? these came long before their time. Ease of Use: they are flat. would have been nice to have level trim on the front, but not many companies do this. Quality: 7 years, and not a single flaw. ever. they have been through several moves. Value: you can get these used now for a song, worth every penny. back when they first came out, the price was a bit salty...but digital ins and flat clean response? it was a fair price. Manufacturer Support: never had a need to call them. no problems yet.

"Roland Quality" submitted July 5, 2005

The Wow Factor
Musical Background: Saxophonist and all-around musician.
Back to Product Information
Sound: They sound great for speakers in this price range. There may be better, there are certainly worse, but the bottom line is these sound pretty darn good. Feature: Both digital (coax and optical) and analog inputs, gain control, hi and lo trim. The digital inputs and excellent Roland DA conversion puts these in a category all by themselves. Quality: They look like your standard studio monitors. They are well-built and can withstand some abuse (although hopefully they won't have to). They are heavy buggers at over 33 pounds each. Value: There are other monitors available in this price range that may be bigger or have some other desirable attributes, but none are digital. Considering this, I think these are great values. The Wow Factor: Again, there are certainly other appealing choices in this price range, but if you really want or need digital monitors, then how could you not want something like this? Overall: In a perfect world, I would have the biggest and best monitors money can buy. In THIS world, I have my DS-90As and will probably stick with them for some time.
