the box MA120 MKII 5-stars Reviews
Great for buck
Works as our vocal monitor for rehearsal room.
It works
I play guitar in a five piece rock band and we were looking for on stage monitors because we do a lot of little gigs where we do our own sound. We've used theses monitors for a couple of weeks in rehearsals and I have nothing but good things to say about them.
Pros:
Plenty of power for stage monitors.
Simple effective controls. Easy to EQ to cut through the mix.
Solid, gig worthy, build construction.
Adaptable configurations (two inputs allow personalization of monitors).
Cons
They're heavy?
I haven't found anything to complain about really.
Very Good Solid Monitor
Great Monitor! PROS: solid build with great sound, great clarity with a lot of punch. Cons: No Jack input - most mixing desks use jack Auxiliaries for monitors. A lifting strap on the horizontal would be helpful.
Overall a great monitor for the price. Will in no doubt be using this for many years to come.
MA120 MKII it's good!
I boght this box for my electronic drums (Millenium). Used 4 years and have not any problem. Thank you, Tomann!
Amazing for the price
I use this for monitoring in my bedroom studio. It does the job really well and gets loud for a home/bedroom studio but I don't think it would be enough for a loud gig, I mean I feel like it will probably be hearable but not much.
Build quality feels very nice, no complaints here for the price
Sound quality is decent and most importantly eq is responsive, so for the money I would totally recomend this.
Excellent Monitor, but not loud.
I have used a few of these but they are not as loud as you would expect from the power rating. 120w should be louder than a Marshall 100w half-stack. It isn't. Nevertheless, it is loud enough for our uses which are varied: band monitor, individual vocalist amp, general small PA.

Very good budget active monitors!
Cheap and cheerful - handy purchase
It's great value, it has the features you'd expect and it works well - I have 3 or 4 of them
Bargain!!!
Small, compact but very reliable monitor with a nice and linear sound.
Strongly recommend for bands, Dj's, and any other application required.
It is extremely lightweight and easy to carry and takes up very little space, yet is quite powerful.
For the price, it's a bargain!
A pleasant surprise
Honestly I didn't know what to expect from the Box MA120 MKII. My budget was tight and I really had to rely on the reviews of others buuuut....I got blown away when I heard it!
Honestly, I don't know if there are many other speakers out there at this price range that deliver that well. We wanted to use it in our home studio for rehearsals (metal music) only for vocals and the clarity it delivers was not expected by any of us when we found out the price. You can listen to all the depth of the voice and the basic e.q. it offers, can help you adjust it just the way you want it.
One of the best things this speaker has to offer is the VERY EASY access to controls that it features, since they are placed on the front so I don't have to guess and hope I turn the right knob in Breill system every time i need to do adjustments. Another thing that impressed me is the construction quality and the materials used. Honestly, the only thing I could ask more would be just a little bit more Wattage but that's just me.
I am not saying that this is the BEST speaker one can find. I am saying that this is one of the VERY BEST speakers in this price range.
Always consider the job you want it for, however excellent value for money.
P.S. Also works well when I tried to play my acoustic guitar in front of the mic I plugged in it and soundwise it delivered very warm and well. However that's why I'd wish for a little extra Watts.
Use two for monitors - very happy
Great unit, however bass response is very strong and needs to be dialed back. Used weekly for two years and works fine, also good for very small/ quite gigs.
Just great
I haven't any experience with the box-series, but one of my friend told me, that he bought on of the priviest model like 10 years ago and he has no problem with it. So i decided to take this monitor for helping the drummer to receive the sound at the rehearsals. It's very convenient that it has possibility of laying on the ground. Quality is quite good but not the lux. But the price cover all bad sides!
Jack of all trades
We use it for vocals and keyboards. The sound is really good and volume is adequate for rehearsal. Not sure for a live situation though. The build seems good and I have 6 months now and no problem so far.
The only drawback is that you can't connect e-drums with the usual jack cable.
Floor Monitor
We play in a small band, and having this monitor has solved a LOT of on stage problems. It's not a fancy bit of kit, but it works, and it works well. easy to set up, easy to use, great on stage volume, I would buy another one tomorrow, great value product.
Good value
Works very well for our drummer, nice sound quality, but in a live situation you will most probably need (as we did) to get the matching extension speaker to get the volume up high enough. Due to the speaker impedance this monitor on its own was not loud enough as it will only put out about half of its power without the matching extension speaker which then provides the full 120W.
Great for it's price
We use it mainly for vocals when we rehearsing.
Sounds is good for money you paying ,it's really easy to hit peak ,but when it's facing at me ,i hear what come from it. But at higher volumes it's a little messy.
If you looking for some PA for your rehersals it's worth buying. But for stage performance I'm not really sure.
Overall ,this is pretty solid peace of gear if you don't want loudness.
Value for Money
the box MA series of monitor are cheap options compared to other brands but however offers a great quality end product. I have been using it with my Yamaha Edrums without any flaw. Plays very loud if you push the volume knob. Many inputs for various use. Top quality and solid :)
Value for money
Using as an e-drum monitor for a few years.This one, compared to the bigger MA150, is probably better for a small room; although the MA150 has better lows, it might be an overkill when it comes to volume and space.
Other than that, probably the only choice at this price range for an e-drum monitor.
Sounds great
Sounds great, top notch, used this for rehearsal as well as live shows that didn't have PA's
For the rehearsal in studio
The clarity on all frequencies is very good. But do not expect anything high volume. Ideal for average volume levels. Line input is extra nice. It is very useful to have buttons on the front panel
