Small speakers, big sound. With 3" woofers, wood cabinets, and a built-in USB audio interface, M1Active 330 USB monitors put Alesis value on your desktop.

Alesis has been creating studio monitors for nearly a quarter century. In that time, they've learned a thing or two about optimizing sound and sonic clarity. Built using technology adopted from Alesis' award-winning Monitor One and M1Active professional studio monitors, the M1Active 330 USB Desktop Studio Monitors are the perfect way to upgrade your computer or mobile device experience. Each speaker is housed in a custom-designed anti-resonant wood cabinet that helps provide natural bass. It features an elliptical waveguide with directional articulation technology.

Exclusive Aluminum Woofers

The M1Active 330 USB studio monitors are equipped with 3" aluminum woofers that are lighter and stiffer than typical carbon-fiber, paper or glass-Aramid woofers, giving the M1Active 330 USB an even faster transient attack and more linear response through the bass and midrange. Additionally, a precision-designed waveguide provides high-frequency dispersion in a well-controlled, predictable pattern. This ensures a widened listening "sweet spot" while at the same time preventing random scattering of the sound. The smoothly radiused "aerodynamic" cabinet edge prevents objectionably-audible artifacts from edge diffraction and the flared front-firing bass ports eliminate distracting port turbulence from the speaker's bass output.

Verified Customer zZounds has verified that this reviewer made a purchase from us.
I bought these powered speakers, hooked them up to my laptop and i was very disappointed but since i don't like sending things back i decided to visit the Alesis website and read about them. Their website said that because they have aluminium speaker cones that they sound better after they are broke in and after 2 days i must say that they really do sound much better actually they now sound pretty good just like the website said. I was having buyers remorse but now i am very happy with these speakers.
