I have the DS-7's in my home studio and I have discovered that I can get better mixes in my room (which is acousitcly treated with custom built bass traps, and broadband absorption) than in a perfectly treated commercial facility with an RME converter and Event 20/20's. Now dont get me wrong, the Event's are great monitors that sound really clean and full resolution, but the DS-7's just yield this beautiful round sound that is accurate to your mix and points out the mistakes in your mix allowing you to quickly repair them. Im using them with analog inputs from an Edirol FA-101 and although the Edirol is not a top end converter I can mix very nice and full analog sounding mixes like second nature without having to think of the process. Absolutely the BEST for its price range. And very very smooth but accurate HF drivers, nice to mix with.

I absolutely love the front panel LED lights and power switch. For my application where I prefer not to turn off my Monster power center every thing, this is really great to have in a tight place. Also the Digital connectivity that I have not used is very nice. Allows you to get the full DS-7 sound without your converter getting in the way.

Its really easy to use. If your using them in the right environment, which is a studio, they're just plug and play.

As far as quality goes, I would have to say it is the best! I love the fact that they actually use real wood cabinets. The driver quality is also very very good. Its well thought out, and a great design. It looks very attractive which means allot to me and is a big part of the process of how I select my studio gear.

As I mentioned before, it is the best value for the money on the market. I got them from a friend of mine and even retail they are by far the best I have heard for the money.

I never had to use them, but Roland has a great reputation for their tech support.

They look awesome. Just this great studio appearance and not too big.

Sound is what I can say is here, a real sound,

Could be directly connected to any digital/analogue device, except analogue RCA, but it's not a problem

Very easy

No comments, it's top, even drives the bass

Best buy for this price, you don't need to spend more money, less money - more quality, it's true

no need
