Good value

It's a good monitor for the price - it's not out-of-this world but for small gigs it does get the job done. The sound is not as polished as some higher-end units but it does provide you a way to hear yourself and band members on stage.

Budget monitor

I use it as a rehersal room monitor for E-drums and vocals.

I find the sound to be okay, there is enough bass for E-drums but there is a lot of mud in the middle freq and it requires some EQing to get the drums to sound good, luckily there is the option the adjust EQ. It's not too heavy and still relatively portable. For the price i find it a good purchase but i will be buying higer quality monitors in the future.

Good for the start

It is a very good for a monitor begining for a small budget...

Unbrakable!!!!!

A little heavy but don't mind...

Very very clear for vocals, a little rough at electric guitar's metal distortion because of its low DB's peak.

But it is ok because it is a monitor and not a PA which audience listen...

Good value

Very good for the money, I used in a 4 piece band and more than enough power for my vocals with a good EQ

Good Monitor

This monitor was bought to be used for band practices and jam sessions at a university music society. It has been heavily used for just over 6 months and has showed no problems since the date of purchase.

The sound is good and it is more than loud enough to be heard in a band setting. To my ears it sounds as good as some more expensive competitors. It won't be the greatest thing you'll ever hear, but it does the job well for the price.

I have a few criticisms. It would be nice if there was a 1/4 inch jack input for to make it easier for keyboard players. For this a 1/4 inch jack to XLR cabe would be needed. The portability is not very good. It is very heavy and only has one handle at one end making it tricky to carry. If there was a second handle on the other end it would make it would be much easier.

Good sound

Very good sound and easy to use for beginners. But big size so if you have a small room, you will have to position it vertically.

Heavy

Very big and heavy, but great sound and volume for the price. If you've the space and the crew to carry them, 4 or 6 of these would give you a hell of a bang for your buck as a front-of-house PA.

Good sound, but quite big for a monitor

I have to admit that I assumed these to be smaller. Well, anyway only downside is that carrying these are pain. Sound and features are good for our purposes (using these as monitor speakers in acoustic duo gigs). Would be better for rock band usage where the size doesn't matter that much.

Value for money

Nice powered monitor wedge - very cheap and the sound reflects this a bit but for an amateur band it's ideal. Nice and punchy too.
