Absolutely perfect for the job

These are great, I've been using them for years.

They are more than loud enough to hear over a rock band,

They stack nicely in the car

They can be positioned horizontally, vertically, or on their ends, as the situation requires.

There is no signal lost on pass-through.

Most importantly, the cable access and controls are hidden from the feet of the audience, unlike many monitors. This is really important in pubs.

They are a bit awkward to carry, that's the only downside.

Monitor for all purposes

I bought two Mon A12, active monitor before 6 months! I use it in different ocasion: like stage monitor on small to medium stages, like DJ monitor in clubs, and also like front fill in PA mode! All feedbacks are more than good especially for that price range. In monitor mode I don't have any problems with mic feedback also in high level and on same time it sounds natural and enogh present for vocal control! Maybe you can't cover big loudnes on stage when you work with metal bands but there is planty of volume especially if you use pair of them- for example for main vocal!

If you are not obliged to fulfill the condition of the riders, where you can find only strong brands, - this is the choice for you!

Just perfect

I normally use it as an active monitor for my e-drums, and I just can say that it does its work perfectly! Powerful, no distortion, perfect on low and mid-high frequencies. I used it inside a room for practice and outside on live stage.

No regrets at all!

JUST BUY ONE!

These small foot print wedges are fantastic. I wasn't sure at first if these would be any good.

They are lightweight, powerful and look the part.

Being active is just great too. I have used these for small FOH jobs for conferences and as wedges with very happy results.

Clear sound

that doesn't feedback easily. Definitely lacking a touch at both ends of the spectrum for FOH applications for my own liking they are perfectly adequate for on stage monitors for your average gigging band. We use these for monitors and Yamaha DSX 12's for FOH.

Delivery uber quick as usual.

The finish is a bit abrasive - watch your vehicle/walls/table tops etc.

Musicians love it

The feedback i get from musicians is very good, it was a very nice surprise, i will buy more.

It is a bit Heavy for a 12" but is coaxial.

The finishing is good but the wood cold be better lets see whit the years passing what append.

Clean, relatively powerful

Very well built box that seems to be able to withstand a lot of gigging, but for me this still remains to see. The sound is clean and full bodied. I play in a rock band that tends to get pretty loud on stage; Still the sound coming through this box can be heard clearly.

A great but a little impractical stage monitor

This is a great piece of equipment considering the sound/power/space ratio, however, it is quite impractical for carrying around due to practically non-existent handles (there is just an empty space that is meant to be carried by, however, not comfortable enough for an item of such weight).

Can't ask for more

It sound fine, and thanks to its coaxial tweeter, the dimensions and weight aren't excessive.

Even our bass player hears his instrument well, even if a bigger cone is recommended for bass guitar monitoring.

The anti-feedback feature isn't that helpful if the stage gets louder and you push the volumes up, better do that on EQs

The optional cover is recommend!

Regarding the price/quality ratio, you can't ask for more!

Love this 12" monitor, BUT very disappointed to find that although there is in/out xlr for daisychaining units , there is no "out" for the iec plug/socket.

I previously bought the pro MON 10 which had this feature (a few years ago) and bought the 12" on this basis, along with the very expensive dual signal/mains cables. Which are now useless, as there is no iec output.

Also the unit could do with a handle, as the inset means you can only carry the unit with your finger-tips!
