video production is our job...these monitors are at a good price and do a great job.

The price tag is also a big plus, i compared them almost back to back in a cotrolled enviroment with the Yamahas HS8, and the presonus has a more balanced response, i find the yamahas to be too bright to be comfortable mixing later on, and almost half the price

Something very affordably priced that I could use for song writing demos in a small apartment.

By contrast, "loudspeakers" are used for home audio and they typically have boosted bass and or treble response (low and high frequencies) to make the sound more punchy and colorful, especially since nearly all consumer audio sources come from highly compressed MP3 sources where much of the dynamic range of the original music track has been lost

The sound is excellent, and the range was much better than I anticipated, especially the low end

They produce clean and incredible full range sound, they amaze me for their size

This allowed me to have a greater working range on volume.

Between the volume adjust and several out put ports for RCA and the regular quarter inch output as well as the volume adjust knob are what makes this Monitor along with the good range of frequency this thing puts out

Near-field monitors are designed to reproduce sound with a *flat* response to give an accurate, faithful reproduction of the original audio without enhancements.

Monitors are supposed to provide a flat response in order for the mixer (you) to get a clear, unbiased reproduction of the sound you are engineering

Excellent response and reproduction in a compact enough footprint for the desktop

One thing that sets this pair apart from the competition other than it's accurate sound reproduction, is that they have both a high and low-end tuning knobs on the back of the primary unit (left side).

I bought this personal studio setup and I couldn't ask for a better product, the sounds is deep and warm without having to much punch of a bass which is good for a speaker of this size

I use these for audio production as well as casual listening.

I have my bass setting on +2db and it sounds great listening to electronic music, the walls behind me shake if you put your hand up on it

The frequency response is suitably flat, and with proper EQ is great for any type of music listening.

I bought these for music production as well as general listening

I will use these primarily as computer speakers just for easy listening, but I also dabble in music creation, for which these will be excellent too.

I work in Broadcast Productions and I have used several in the 25 years, but these are killer for the price

I like the sound quality of these monitors; great use for reference

I have been using this unit for about a month now, this speaker system continues to amaze me with clear sound and ample loudness

(Remember, near-fields are designed for up-close low-to-medium volume levels.)I considered several different models at this size and for the money you can't get or expect a better pair of monitors, they rock!

I wanted some small, nice looking near field speakers for my PC desk setup for YouTube, music, movies, training videos, etc

Beautiful looking monitors and beautiful sounding across the entire audio range

Aestheically they are quite modern looking and fit nice aside a pair of QHD monitors, being well-sheilded and small enough to fit within limited space

I like the sound quality of these monitors; great use for reference

super loud great quality fast shipping nice packaging

These performed great for their size, we tested online music and the quality was very good

Okay so these are nice speakers build quality is excellent and they sound great but have a fatal flaw

The speakers themselves are very good quality, and quite possibly the best set of speakers for $100.Read more

so that's the only useful thing I can contribute to the reviews

but that's one of the best things about them since they don't take up too much space, and the sound quality is amazing

I would just say the highs sound is a bit warm rather than bright (not a bad thing)

Presonus is doing great things here, and for a hundred bucks or so, no disappointment is possible.

These things are awesome for a small office/studio setup

I highly recommend especially for setting up a nice small recording studio.

for the price if you are not looking for the perfect studio speakers to mix and master

I’ve owned much more expensive studio monitors then these, but let me tell you these are great for putting together a budget video editing or sound editing station

I strongly recommend these monitors for beat makers/music producers

They are pure flat reference monitors, superb at exposing mixing flaws

I definitely recommend these monitors, especially for producers!

happyI think this is the best budget reference monitors

I am aware of at least one other reviewer who bought these this month (May 2018) and received the wrong power cord like me, so be prepared for that if you order these monitors, but don't let that put you off

However, I was sent the wrong power cord and was unable to hook these up

That solved the issue fine, but be warned that I have read other reviews of people getting the wrong power cord in their box as well

They came supplied with the wrong power cord, which based on my experience and other reviews isn't just a one-off thing and has been an issue for a couple months
