Under normal use, and care, these will last a lifetime!
Sound
Nice Imaging and range, decent x-over point, I was surprised at the Bass response! I feel the 45 Hrz range is exagerated, like most small speaks, however, at least with these you can actually adjust the points of gain to compensate for use with a sub.
Features
In this price range, these have very professional controls, i.e : LF / HF selector switches, this is nice because you KNOW exactly where you adjustments are set. I prefer this over knobs. And of course the gain control.
Quality
Outstanding quality for any price range. I noticed that these are very well construcded, dense , nice joinery, and it appears that these use 3/4 inch MDF with a very nice black ash laminate. The amps appear first rate, and they are clear punchy, and more than loud enough for thier intended use.
Value
Great value, Now that I know just hos nice these are, I would have paid an easy 2 bills more!! It's anice monitor between the KRK v4 and certain 6.5 inchers that I was looking at as well.
Manufacturer Support
Never had to use them...
The Wow Factor
If this is you budget, then you will not be dissapointed. The KRKv4 are my standard comparison monitor in the range, so, these are very good indeed.
