"The best combination of sound and appearance for the price!!"
Verified Purchaser
zZounds has verified that this reviewer purchased this specific product from us.
I forsee that I will be happy with the product until I purchase a new set of monitors.
Sound
I was pleasantly surprised by the power and range. The little blue boxes sound better than many speakers you will find in most retail stores.
Features
They are quite versatile! I use them primarily for cutting dance mixes and editing digital video. In addition, I have used them to monitor a production at my old high school I was invited to part-take in (as alumni) and they gave me the accuracy and clarity I needed. The availability of two lines of input allowed me to use my computer in addition to the Audio Equipment.
Quality
For the price, they provide a great sound. They are quite rugged as I accidently dropped them and they fell down a few steps (When I was unpacking them!!) and there was no sign of damage and I've been using them since with great satisfaction.
Value
Awesome sound for the investment. Simple to use as they are powered by their own amplifier. Simply plug into the system you plan to use them with and adjust the sound to your liking!
Manufacturer Support
I have not needed to, therefore, I regard Edirol highly as I often encounter problems with products.
The Wow Factor
I LOVE the blue :) and the grilles are quite attractive in my opinion.

"Running strong. 20 years already."
Running strong. 20 years already. These are my working desk monitors. Used DAILY. Used for my home studio the first 5 years... When I see some users complaining about them, I'm laughing... You're not supposed to blast music at crazy high levels. Save your ears (and monitors). Use these babies with care and they will last decades!

"Wouldn't recomend them"
unimpressive sound quality (even for it's low price) and one blowing out after 4 months, I wouldn't recomend them. You get what you pay for i suppose, although i wouldn't doubt there are better $120-$150 speakers out there then these.
Sound
The sound isn't very good. It is noticebly worse then my logicitech computer speakers (2 speakers and sub for $150). But for $130 for a pair i guess you can't expect too good of quality anyways.
Features
great features, 2 volume controls for both speakers,treble and bass.
Quality
the casing is sturdy and well made. But one of the speakers went out on me after about 4 months after buying it. After that they went in the trash.
Value
i guess there decent for $130, although had i known one was going to go out on me after 4 months of use I would of just put the money to something better.
Manufacturer Support
never used it
The Wow Factor
just low budget speakers

Edirol MA-10D Monitors Customer Review
Sound
they sounds very good on highs and mids, but they have NO basses! Don't belive when they say 45hz... under 80hz you will hear only rumble with these monitors!
Features
i like very much volume control and digital input

"Sound good, but not durable."
Used them for my home studio (mostly guitar). I was very happy with them while they lasted, but they didn't last long. Right channel got a nasty bass buzz after about six months.
Sound
Was great...for a while.
Features
Good inputs for the price
Quality
Didn't last a year before the right channel blew out.
Value
Probably better off with computer speakers of the same price range.
The Wow Factor
They do look nice.

"Obvious choice for the home production studio."
Will last a long time as the main monitoring speakers in my studio.
Sound
Very good sound reproduction all over the freqency range, although lacking some in the lower section. Needs a good amount of break-in before the qualities show.
Features
2 Line-in, 2 optical and 1 coaxial 24bit/32-96kHz digital SPDIF. 2 separate volume controls (one for Line1+digital and one for line2).
Bass/Treble control and 3.5mm headphones jack.
You probably won't find any other monitors with those features at this price. The digital inputs are working well also at 16bit/48khz.
Quality
Lovely finish, Nice and sturdy, gold plated RCA connectors, optical connectors with clever dust protection. The power, volume and tone controls are working well but they look cheap.
Value
Great value, especially considering the no. of connectors.
Manufacturer Support
Did not need any service. The fact that they are working so well give them a higher rating.
The Wow Factor
As an amateur musician and producer they impress me with the flat sound characteristics.
