After many years of mixing with 2 way monitors, I was blown away at the accurate representation of my mixes and commercial music mixes. The minute I played back my own mixes, I heard the trouble from my old monitors lack there of. They respond to EQ changes with ease. The bass is dead on accurate. You'll never fight to get a bass track to sit in the mix with a Kali studio monitor. The mids and tweeter are clear, and the overall crossover network is about flawless. These monitors are TUNED! The only dip switch I had to set was for monitor on stand near a wall. After that, it solved my slight bass shy test mix. Say goodbye to ear fatigue. You hear everything at moderate 70-75db mixing volumes. It's like they rewrote the Fletcher Munson curve with these things lol. They are pretty quiet on standby. I never owned the first generation and can't say if version 2 is quieter. They aren't as powerful as some other studio monitors. They don't need to be. You can hear all the punch and frequencies at low volume and don't need to crank these things. I mix hard rock and metal. The minute I started to mix, I knew these things weren't no joke. No more second guessing and doing a remix after you playback on the car stereo or home stereo in the real world. What you hear from these things is what you get. They'll save you time and money. They're just as good, if not better, than studio monitors that run into the thousands for a pair. Great job Kali!
