Good quality for decent price.

If you want a decent pair of monitors for your workstation/home studio or even to elevate your music listening sessions, then this could be for you.

It's not by any means something special or extraordinary, but it does everything it advertises, and it does it well. I did not had any issues with distortion even in high volumes and I have to say for the price it was more than what I could ask for.

You get what you pay

Got these as my first set. Cant say Im dissapointed but Im not blown away either. They are great for the money but in the long run Id rather invest 100 euros more and get a proper Kali,KRK or Adam set

Bass is tight and consistent,but the mids seem pronounced a bit much. No real issues in the high end however.

Had some connection issues but solved easily.

Great set of monitors for home use

These are a great set of monitors for home guitar playing. Playing music through them sounds really good as well. All in all, a fantastic option to have in your home for both music production as well as music listening.

Could be a bit better for its cost

Quite "bassy" sounding, maybe it's caused by my room.

Pros:

1. Low cost

2. Can be plugged in to PC's sound card directly via minijack

Cons:

1. plays some noise while enabled, does not depend on volume set whether on the speaker or audio interface.

2. Poor minijack cables within. Had to buy two Jack <-> Jack cables to plug it into an audio interface with balanced outputs

Good entry level studio monitors

I bought these to upgrade from my previous speakers. They are a step up from your common computer speakers. The sound quality is quite good and they have a wide range of frequencies.

They're easy to set up + they are nice and stylish. You can easily connect them to your computer or to an audio interface.

The one drawback that I find is a very quiet static sound from the small top speakers when you don't play anything through them, it is barely noticeable but still worth mentioning.

Overall, if you are like me and want something better than cheap computer speakers, try these out!
