Reviews around price (5.00 of 5)

  • and once you balance the SPL between the powered-sub & MS16s, ... you've got a very nice killer setup for MP3, PC, Laptop, Keyboard & near-field Home Studio application @ a very reasonable price!In my
  • The bass response is comparable to (and the mid-range and high end clarity far better than) any low or mid-priced 2.1 speaker setup I've seen, so don't worry about the lack of a sub woofer option
  • If you want crystal clear reproduction at a low price these will beat the pants off any logitech loud bass ,non clear speakers anyday.sure there MAYBE better systems for 10 times the price ......but thats another story.

Reviews around response (5.00 of 5)

  • They create a really wide and dynamic stereo field, and they have a nice, flat response
  • I was pleasantly surprised by the power as well as the good high and low range response
  • , I'm guessing, that the Behringer & Altec powered-sub combination for my Yamaha Portable Grand Keyboard frequency response is approx

Reviews around resolution (5.00 of 5)

  • If you want "budget" monitors that provides excellent imaging, revealing resolution, super flat & wide Pro Monitor like frequency characteristics, the Behringer MS16 is for you
  • (depth) soundstage is also excellent, as well as the dynamic's resolution (soft vs. loud) in playing back the encoded instrument sounds which helps provide excellent location placement of the instruments

Reviews around input (5.00 of 5)

  • It does have all the right input connections (RCA, 1/4, 18"), but the sound sucks, even compared to little desktop computer speakers.
  • PROS:-good quality-design-mic input-volume, mic volume, bass, and treble knobsCON:-a quiet noise is always coming out of these speakers that kind of bug..
  • To me, it seems like the mic input is just not well insulated

Reviews around value (4.16 of 5)

  • i wouldn't recommend them as a home studio monitor but as a portable monitor, they're good value if you tackle the problem of excessive bass resonance.
  • i wouldn't recommend them as a home studio monitor but as a portable monitor, they're good value if you tackle the problem of excessive bass resonance.
  • I would not use them as my main monitors but they are a good value for a set of monitors to check your mix from a more realistic audio setup rather than high dollar equipment.

Reviews around reproduction (3.86 of 5)

  • Woohoo!Now that the MS16's (sounds like a mexican gang?) are relieved of heavy bass duties (I set the bass controller down to 1/3 and treble up to 2/3), and carefully matching the bass of the CA sub's volume, I am able to achieve, a really nice (cheap) reproduction of a real Steinway
  • I love the Behringer MS16 ambience reproduction in my room, because it gave me the feeling that "you are there" and if the recording is from a live concert, the ambience provided the right amount of reflections to make you think your listening to the performance outdoors, or in the symphony hall

Reviews around frequency (3.75 of 5)

  • it nicely filled my 20 x 30' room with well balanced, clean & smooth frequency jazz music
  • The Behringer MS16 plays back all my Jazz CD Music with relative smoothness, with no surprising in-between the eyes, unnatural frequency peaks because of it's super flat & wide Pro Monitor like frequency characteristics
  • The higher and midrange frequencies are very clean and accurate(my unprofessional opinion)
  • The lower frequencies work sufficiently, but can be overworked with high bass music, or the lower notes on a piano

Reviews around monitor (3.35 of 5)

  • now they sound quite good for a portable monitor speaker.
  • I have been in the music field for many years and while these may not be an ideal studio monitor set, they would do in a pinch
  • (FYI a new pair of Creative Gigaworks T20 as of May 2016).If you want a true reference monitor, quiet at all times when quiet, don't buy anything
  • If you want "budget" monitors that provides excellent imaging, revealing resolution, super flat & wide Pro Monitor like frequency characteristics, the Behringer MS16 is for you
  • I know that monitors, even good ones, have hum problems, but the hum coming from these monitors is not acceptable even for the sub-$100 price-range

Reviews around bass (3.17 of 5)

  • I use these for my computer to listen to cds and other stuff my son likes them for his guitar great set of speakers real clear and awesome bass
  • and the bass is terrific if you don't play heavy metal which if you do then these are not the speakers for you
  • The sound is slightly colored and playback with these monitors isn't going to create that distinct and individual placement of each instrument within the stereo field, but for $70-80 bucks these things are rocking and have well rounded bass and mids.
  • Great bass and overall clarity - about 1,000% better than the stock speakers I was using.
  • The deep bass is lacking of course, which is expected for a 4" DIA woofer, but it wasn't MIA and actually sounded better than most free-standing speakers w/4" or 5" woofers.
