The Behringer MS16 Active Personal Monitor is a great set of powered speaker.

It comes ready to use, right out of the box.

Very easy to use. Great for home, office, desk and laptop. I use this set of speakers to mix the tracks that I record on my Tascam DP-008. They are excelent monitors for home studio.

Behringer makes excellent products. Excellent sound and controls The MS16 is one of them. I am very happy with Behringer products.

The price of the Behringer MS16 is the best one on the market. About five years ago I bought the same kind of monitor made by Roland (the MA-8)and the price was way higher than the actual price of the Behringer MS16.

All the products that I have from Behringer work very well. So far, I have not used the support yet.

I just needed a pair of monitor for my home studio

The sound is pretty good. Keep in mind these are "budget" monitors, and for $60.00 they're well worth it. My only complaint about them is how they handle low frequencies. I have to back off on the bass when I'm using my synths. However, when using my Fostex digital 8 track (MR-8B) they sound quite nice!

I'm going to give features a 10 for several reasons. My (10) rating is based on what all they included on these speakers for under $60. You get bass and treble control, there is a 1/4 mic jack on the front--with its own volume control, and on the rear there are two more sets of inputs. One being RCA, and the other one is a 1/8 jack. You can have three connections to these speakers at one time. Plus the size of the monitors allows them to set nicely into a desktop setup without taking much space. Also keep in mind that these monitors aren't "new" per say. These particular monitors are actually the old "Roland Micro Monitors" with the Behringer name. They're the exact same thing.

Very easy to use. There's nothing to them. Plug them into the wall, connect your gear, and push the power button :)

Quality is very good for the price range. Again, lower frequencies (when using keyboards) can cause distortion.

For less than $60 truely a "great value". They're worth every penny. Even if you don't do studio work, these would make a great substitute for cheap (good sounding) computer speakers, or anything you want to hook up to them (ipods, CD players, ect).

I've contacted them regarding other products and service was always good.

Great sex appeal...:) They got a clean design to them, and just looking at them you can't help but think-- "Hmmmmmm how do those puppies sound?"

For what they are they work good. We use them for non-linear editing system. They are better than computer speakers, better built, not hi-fidelity. We looked at some of the more expensive ones that sounded a little better but for three times the price I thought whatever. We bought the MS16's

Good features for the money

Easy to use. Everything's labeled on the speaker.

Good value for the money. They're cheap, but well worth $70

Good bang for the buck.

Sound is terrific to me gotta love them.. you can really hear everything. No hiss in less you turn the treble up all the way then you hear a little bit.. Beats the hell out of computer speakers!

they are ok really wish they had 1/8 jacks so i plug directly into my interface as 1/8 instead of quarter inch..

Its made pretty cheap what do you expect your only paying like 60 bucks so.. What more can you expect?

Dont need none just hook her up correctly and you will be listing in no time=]

not very sexy looking lol but the def get the job done. they really look like some speakers you would up to a regular stereo

Sounds are hissing and at very low volume. All the buttons function as they should,,,, bass is very hard to hear not matter the volume. I would not buy again!! I am currently looking to Bose for their companion 3 sepakers.

Whats to learn? Plug the cord into the wall, the wall into the unit plug speaker jack into speaker and there you go. Concentrate on well built sounding product and ease will come.

These monitors are probably the single worst investment I've made of any sort yet this new year. One person claimed they had too much bass, but when he plugged the ports it tightened them up. What these have, in my opinion, is a boomy replica of bass reproduction, but not actual bass. Effectively they're just a couple of tin cans that I'd return if it were worth the hassle. I'll just Craig's List 'em, take the hit and get rid of them.

Basic; nothing more.

I give them a (4) on this count because you have to spend an incredible amount of time trying to position them to sound well, only to find that it can't happen.

Nothing special, but not defective at any rate.

Total waste of money even if they were ten bucks!

No idea.

sounds very good even at higher volumes. i use it for recording or playing backing tracks while playing thru my amp. when cranked too loaud there is some distortion but at levels just loud enough to compete with my amp levels in my house it sounds pretty good.

if you cant figure out how to use speakers you probably cant read this review anyway

seems to be good quality, the logos are cheesy but that is just personal preference

cant beat the these for 65 bucks reconditioned. they looked brand new

never used it

You get what you pay for. These are more like mid-range computer speakers than audio monitors. They do that duty fine. But they are not for mixing or critical listening. Bass is weak (I'm not looking for big bass, just a somewhat flat frequency response down to 90 Hz or so, and these definitely don't have that) and they rattle like mad at certain frequencies.

Well, they're really cheap, so even if they don't sound good, you can use them for plenty of applications other than mixing and critical listening.

They didn't seem to care that I was really displeased and wouldn't consider an exchange of some sort or some kind of credit.

Perfect sound production which you can never imagine Behringer can get this far. Hell with other BIG BRANDS when you can save hundreds and thousands by not looking at brands but listening..truthfully/.

Best of the best

Best

Excellent

No doubt i want.

They get excellent sound from these speakers, for the price you can't beat it $59.00 is worth every penny, I'm using these speakers w/ my cry baby 535Q wah & my zoom GFX-8 pedal lines run straight out of the GFX-8 L/R jacks into the L/R RCA's & it makes these speakers sound like a full blown stack even at loud levels I thought they would distort like crazy once I turned them up I was wrong it sounded even better like an amp being turned up with plenty of practice volume also can pacth my sound into the mixer w/ the supplied cable & record my sound I hardly use my amp after buying these
