Reviews around build (5.00 of 5)

  • The Monitors actually have a great build quality, both the speaker quality and the cabinets.
  • The foam pad built onto the bottom is good enough for de-coupling that I won't be needing a sub decoupler / riser for my hardwood floor
  • Plug and play with usb and xlr, no stress and extremely well built.

  • These beautiful monitors are the best value for your buck
  • For anyone who's looking for excellent quality at a excellent price you can't get any better than the Rockville I would recommend it to anyone who is just starting as well as for professional artists themselves.

Reviews around power (5.00 of 5)

  • Rockville has produced a fine powered subwoofer for smaller rooms
  • In a studio or a small-ish venue (25' x 50' or less) it has enough power and sound output to provide most of the low end
  • This allows a user to feed either a stereo signal with the appropriate cable or a mono bass output with a Y-adapter cable (which I prefer) to each of the two inputs, thus maximizing the available power applied to the driver

Reviews around end (3.98 of 5)

  • Changing the amplifier to boost the top end 4db ended up messing the mids that makes vocals sound shrill (not unlike playing tape on fast forward)
  • The mids and lows in these speakers are JBL like, but the top end is missing a bit of sparkle
  • Great quality, great low end sound, especially for the price
  • This sub has a nice punch to it and the low end it has
  • If you are looking for good clarity with good low ends and a lot of volume, get these

Reviews around bass (3.92 of 5)

  • It goes very Low without the "OVER RUMBLE" of other GOOD LOW BASS SUBWOOFERS !!
  • They could easily be loud enough for a good sized house party, they just wouldn't have enough bass to give it a real "club" feel
  • The bass is lacking for a 8 inch woofer
  • The bass is lacking for a monitor that takes up so much space
  • They are loud enough with good bass response and look great

Reviews around sub (3.87 of 5)

  • I was pretty skeptical in the idea that everyone LOVES this sub, and leaves great comments...
  • Awesome sub, has great dynamic capability, purchased with the auralex suspension to reduce vibrations, best money I’ve spent on a reference sub in years
  • This is actually a good sub but running it at high volume will kill it
  • Awesome sub, has great dynamic capability, purchased with the auralex suspension to reduce vibrations, best money I’ve spent on a reference sub in years
  • so far so good great sounding sub just wish the power was on the front instead of the back

Reviews around monitor (3.81 of 5)

  • To be honest, I didn't expect these to be the best monitors out on the market, being that they are under $200
  • So for the price....these rockville 8" monitors are an absolute steal seeing as they were retailed at $450 originally...and you can't even find them on the their website.
  • Simply amazing....right out of the box these monitors sound awesome!!
  • Let me start by informing you that I have owned only passive monitors with a dream of one day being able to have a set of nice active monitors
  • AJ ONE-UP have spoken and recommend these great monitors

Reviews around speaker (3.79 of 5)

  • these speakers emit a loud white noise that gets very annoying
  • These speakers sound really good but do have a slight hiss when you aren't playing anything
  • Which gives me concern, all in all they are good speakers
  • As far as my credentials for judging/rating these speakers (as opposed to some one who equates volume-that-makes-your-ears-bleed with quality sound)
  • These speakers are really good, If you only want one to work that is

Reviews around noise (1.18 of 5)

  • these speakers emit a loud white noise that gets very annoying
  • And they always had a hissing noise even when nothing was hooked up too them
  • Second if turned up above the half way point on the internal amp it makes a soft humming noise when no sound is being input
  • These monitors have small scratches, the box is damaged and these speakers make a strange noise even though I do not have a music on
  • After hooking them up to my PC and turning on the computer I can hear a faint "hiss" noise out of the speakers

Reviews around hiss (1.00 of 5)

  • There’s an annoying hiss when volume is at zero but the speakers are so beautiful I can live with it
  • They sound great and are some sexy speakers but when they aren't playing anything there is a constant static hissing noise

Reviews around pop (1.00 of 5)

  • And you are also treated to the same loud POP when shutting them off.
  • This subwoofer works great once you get past the cone shattering, loud POP when powering them on
  • To avoid the loud POP, I get to crawl under my audio desk, reach behind the sub and turn it down, then switch it on or off
  • These sound better than some $20 speakers but the popping is making them not worth the price

  • Keep in mind, the only reason our price point is not 300 % higher is because you are buying manufacturer direct
  • We are one of the leading speaker manufacturers in the USA, and we have a state of the art manufacturing process
  • There is a lot to talk about so I will break it down into sections.Description of the enclosure:We chose a wooden enclosure as opposed to a plastic enclosure
  • Your studio is made of wood for a reason
  • The sound characteristics of high quality wood are better than plastic
  • We only use the highest quality MDF wood
  • We do not bother with cheap particle board material when we want to make the best speakers
  • The thickness is 0.5” around and the front board is a full 1” thick to give you the best sound quality possible
  • The enclosure is built with the perfect amount of air space to maximize sound quality for a studio.Every studio or computer room should look beautiful
  • We believe speakers should enhance the look of a room
  • We make these speakers in 3 beautiful finishes
  • Painted black, painted white, and wood finish
  • We use “baking paint” made for wood surfaces
  • It is long lasting and the best paint for speakers! We went with a beautiful finish that is mostly matte with a slight shine to it
  • Our designers spent countless hours on the color to make sure it is not only beautiful but elegant as well to improve the appearance of your studio or room.
