Great product, especially for the price. It needs to sit correctly in a well thought out room to hear the bottom end properly. Fantastic for tracking and not too bad for mixing. You can hear things that just can't be hearrd on a normal speaker system. It gets a 9 because of the price and the quality of the sound involved.

No real features. You have to tune your room!!! Volume and on/off switch. That's about it. They're worth it when placed correctly.

Pretty simple.

Mine have been punished for about 3 years now and sound great. One of the speakers has developed a quiet rattle (in the box construction, not driver) around the 200hz range. Rarely heard though, usually when tracking not mixing.

Every studio should have these instead of NS10. They're accurate and sound sweeter.

Haven't used them. Will downgrade if they give a reason to in future.

The new ones look great in piano black

Very smooth sound. Not too bottom heavy or sizzly on the high end. These monitors require a fairly long break-in period. When first set up, the sound was almost all mid-range, to the point of wanting to exchange them for another brand. After a few days, the sound got considerably better. After a few months, the change was dramatic. Also, upgrading to high quality inter-connect cables made a noticeable sound improvement.

N/A

Just connect a play.

Sturdy deep enclusure, nice piano black finish.

Probably a little better for the price than most monitors.

N/A

Nice looking enclosure. Looks good setting in a studio.
