Buy for the price / quality ratio. Amplified speakers with whom I had worked I knew robust, rather precise, not flattering low. The speaker that is found everywhere, it has reinforced my choice. I use to monitor my home studio signals (Mixing music, audio editing)

SOUNDS

Enclosure rather neutral, despite careful around 1kHz or there is a slight bump. Little low blow anything too flattering. Personally, I do not support such monitoring HS8 that we tend to flatter the bottom at the expense of upper midrange. Therefore not made to mix in extreme serious but rather between 200Hz and 12kHz accurate given the price. After 12kHz there's much more exploitable. For image and dynamic, they are correct.

OVERALL OPINION

I use these speakers for almost 8 years, they always run smoothly. Their openness allows them real close, perfectly suited to the small space. At the time, in the same price range I tried the KRK, the Beringhers, Samson, Fostex.

The range has expanded greatly since then, I would strongly advise taking a 2h in your favorite morning show room.

I love these boxes because until now it has never failed me. It was done quickly, no surprises. THE dynamic is good at low volume, which is appreciable. You choose between low and the accuracy of the listening medium / high.
