Feature:
at this price, multiple inputs, even a distinct gold plated RCA. As these were demos I just found out I lack LRF support (little rubber feet), but I was planning on Mopads anyway. The midrange attenuator i happily leave flat, more so because I want to have them full range for very precise and transparant mixing. as many others have said, notched volume pots would have been handy, but I just leave them centered. My girlfriend gets really turned on by the blue leds somehow, so I start to wonder about some things from her past...
Quality:
Sturdy, solid, well built as I have come to expect from Samson. As for the complaints about the tweeter protection, janking your guitar through your amp is also very passee.
Value:
Hard to beat at this price range
Desirability:
Even my girlfriend wants me more since I have them. How much more sex appeal can a speaker radiate?
Sound:
What a great sound for the money. I come from some old tannoys from before Edison and the difference just gobsmacked me. I listened to them in the shop against the Krk 6 series which immediately sounded too flattening in the mids for me. This was an aboslute steal because it was a demo pair. I value them for their honesty as I have extreme;y sensitive ears and anything disturbing will keep haunting me. Not so with these happy blighters, they revealed on the spot where I screwed up before or where I hit the hammer on the nail. For every possible kind of music I make they sound the world to me, from accoustic to rock to dance. Moreover, through their extreme clarity they still pack all the punch at lower levels, so it's possible to mix at easy levels, which is of course the preferred option of many pro's.
Ease of Use:
The moment I switched them on I fell in love with them and started remixing with incredibly satisfying results. Need I say more?
Support:
Only for posterity, so far they run like a wet dream
Overall:
I give them a 9 as there will always be something better. But they can stand the test against anything I have heard so far, what an amazing sound and build for the price.
