They are crisp, good bass response and reasonably flat across the range.

Plus, they have good bass

Very loud and powerful bass and beautiful clear treble

sure).The clarity of these monitors are simply astounding and the bass is phenomenal.

Coming from entry level 2.1 PC speakers, I didn't understand the concept of "muddy" or "punchy" bass until I heard this.

Very flat but still have good bass response

What's particularly great is the bass, which is shockingly good considering the size and price point of this speaker.

Bass is very responsive

Solid bass too

Excellent bass response

The bass was a touch muddy prior to setting atop these Adam Hall Monitor Isolation Pads, which I would recommend.
