MA 205 : Great for the price. MA 205

Great speaker for the money. Good sound and ideal for a personal monitor. The mic stand mount option is handy. The plate that screws on to the speaker housing is attached to the mounting arm with a bolt. The head of the bolt is proud of the mounting plate by a few mm, which means when you attach it to the speaker the bolt makes contact with the speaker before the edges of the mounting plate, which is not ideal. I fitted four self adhesive felt pads to the plate. This ensure that the plate is supporting the speaker and the head of the bolt is not touching the cabinet. Now it is very secure although the two thumb screws that secure the plate to the speaker are not very large only M4 thread. I would recommend leaving the mounting plate attached to the speaker. Not sure M4 will take much abuse. Other than this small issue I am happy with the sound and compact size.
