Sound: I use this for my guitar sythesizer, and everything sounds great - vibes, B3 organ, keyboards, strings, etc. This really made a differece in my live sound. I gave it a 9 only because at low volumes (like a practice room) it is really noisy, but once you turn up to moderate performance volume, it's clean. Feature: It's lighweight, easy to transport. It has an EQ on the rear, but I never use it - I just set it flat and tweak the EQ through the board. My only complaint is that it comes with a relatively short power cord. Once it's up on the speaker stand, you need another extension cord. Ease of Use: Plug and play. Quality: Seems to be well built and durable, but I've only played a few gigs with it. I wish it had a padded case - I can't find one on the market that fits it. Value: For what I use it for, it's a good value for what I paid. I'm not sure if the "real" Mackie's are worth another $300 (for a 12", not even a 15"). Manufacturer Support: The first one I bought was really noisy - they sent out a new one, no questions asked, with a pre-paid UPS return slip for the old one. Very nice. The Wow Factor: If you have the money, buy the high-end stuff, but for a budget, the Thump is a good deal. Overall: It's working for me. If I hit the lottery, I'll upgrade, but this works great for my club gigs.

Sound: I like the sound and how big it is for their size. Though the high mids are a bit too sharp but that's easily fixed with an eq. Better then being to low. The speakers are thumpin' but I wish they had a bit more depth(thinking about getting a sub). Good for dj-pratice in the studio and as a reference when mixing songs. My genelec 8030A does not go as deep and can not play as loud. Feature: I love the fact that they are active and light as hell. The eq is good thing to have but I rarely use it. And it's not the best, but definitley good. Since it's just a speaker no more features is needed. At least not for me. Ease of Use: Just freakin' plug it in and play. Easy! Quality: Even though they are light they seem durable. The plastic cover makes them look cheap but it's ok. Value: I got a great deal at the local music store here, better then any online store and the sound for the price is great! Manufacturer Support: No problems yet. The Wow Factor: They look cool as hell but the plastic cover looks a bit cheap but they look a lot better then many other PA-speakers on the market. Overall: Good speakers that suits well for practise and reference listening. Noticed that some of our tracks lacked a lot of the sub base you just got to have when making club music so these babies help us fixing that.

Sound: Sounds great, really does THUMP! Feature: I like being able to bypass the onboard EQ... Quality: So far so good... Value: Can't beat the price for the sound quality you get! The Wow Factor: nice looking, but let's face it, they're SPEAKERS! Overall: I won't be using these for outdoor events, as I would just be worried about the power. I plan on adding the TH-18s sub, and expect that will change my opinion. All-in-all a great purchase. No complaints at all!
