First Studio Monitors

Absolute bargain for the price!

I use these for general music listening, no editing or monitoring, bear that in mind.

Great sound, although I feel that the mids are a bit "dull" on lower volumes. Other than that, great choise for my first studio monitors.

Nice low profile studio monitors

I went for these because as you can see from the headline they are low profile. I didn't want huge speakers on my desk taking up too much room but wanted something that would produce the frequency range that studio monitors can. I went with these over a year ago and use them nearly every day for either music listening/recoding/mixing or watching films and TV shows on the laptop or computer. They're still working and no issues so for the price I am very happy. I do think I will upgrade soon and see if a more expensive pair sound much different or what the comparison is but right now they do the job!

Amazing value for money

You must adjust your expectations and keep in mind the price you are paying - so at that point, it is one the best purchase I have ever made. I enjoy them and they make me feel a super smart guy.

They are just amazing for monitoring your desktop - surprisingly wide and clear, allows to identify the instruments and able to deliver the general groove.

For mixing / monitoring purposes, you cannot pretend a huge, high definition mix but here is a good trick: it gives you a nice perspective and good information for balancing if you do it in a low volume, in a 30cm triangle.

Its main weakness is the mid-low: you can compensate a little bit by reducing the distance between the two monitors. Therefore you can get some more 60-300.

Hope this helps.

By the way, you will love all the different inputs / outputs at your disposal.

Very good for small rooms (<20 m^2)

It is imperative that people learn that bigger studio monitors do not mean the sound will be better. The room size and structure will determine the reality of the sound waves arriving to the ears.

Studio Monitors Swissonic MM-3 have left me missing my old Mackie CR4 monitors, just because the connectivity of them was better, not the sound. I never use the full intensity values, and I still obtain good sound, more than adequate.

However, I would prefer for the on-off switch to be push, not clickable, and that they would include some foam padding for the underside. I might be needing to buy stands in the future, so that the tweeter reach the height of my ears.

good value for the money, definitely not for mixing or producing

perfect for videos games, watching movies,

nice looking

you get what you paid for.

useless for music production as the low frequencies are inexistent
