These little speakers are very clear and bright but without causing me ear ear fatigue, I can listen to them for long periods of time without ear strain as well

Over time, it causes ear fatigue, and I find that I have to leave the room

These need to be played at lower volumes sitting near-field for the ear fatigue is daunting

They're friendly on the wallet and also on the ears--I feel like I can mix and listen critically for long periods on these speakers without getting ear fatigue

There's no ear-fatigue from listening to them all day long (but I monitor a very low volumes)
