Elevate 5 MKII : Would totally recommend for this price.

I used M-Audio bx5a's and Genelec 8040's in my old studio. I needed a small monitor for my home mixes, so i tried Alesis Elevate 5 MKII, I would say for this price, It is of course not comparable to Genelec 8040's but they are definitely as good as BX5's.

I can mix clearly with those monitors and also listening to music is very pleasurable. For a 5" speaker you would need to know what to expect, it is not possible to clearly hear below around 65hz and I do not use bass boost function as it sounds an unnatural boost around 80 - 160 hz. I use my headphones for sub - bass mixes with those monitors.

Overall i am very happy with the purchase and i find those speakers very good quality for their price.
