ZXA1-90B : Great as a floor wedge!

11 years ago

I bought these last summer, and have decided to write a review on them based on my experiences over the last year's use. I spent a lot of time searching for a set of small compact, active, all-round speakers before finally settling for the ZX-A1s. I have been using them mainly as floor monitors in a big band setup, but on occasion also as front fills, and once even as satellite speakers on a minor DJ gig. For their small size and relatively limited ability to put out low frequencies (having only an 8 inch woofer element), they actually sound great, and with a surprising amount of sound coming out! In my opinion, these speakers work great as allround floor wedges, possibly with the exception of bass guitarists. To prevent them from getting warm, I always activate the low cut filter. The carrying handles are smartly located at the rear-top, but not so smartly designed, since there's no real grip inside for your fingers to keep them from sliding out of your sweaty hands. They also have a fixed-angle when on the floor, without any practical way of changing the tilt angle. But all in all, I am very pleased with them.
