Review: Great flat clean monitoring speakers - Your initial impression will be "why do these sound normal? There's nothing special about these speakers... They are so expensive".. But just hold on and keep listening​...as you go through your music you start noticing details that hadn't noticed before... The tracks will show every defect they have. The vocals will be crystal clear. I have monitoring headphones (ATH M50x) and these speakers are on par with the headphones when it comes to mid range and treble. However the bass is subdued (which is a good thing). If you want thump in your music you need sub woofer. These are not for you. If you want to do casual listening, these are not for you. However if you mix tracks and know exactly what you are listening to and want to modify your tracks...these are the speakers for you. Connectivity: Each speaker unit has its own power so you'll need 2 extra wall outlets. You'll need external soundcard or audio interface (for example Focusrite Scarlett 2i2). You'll need 2 TRS to TRS cables (one for each channel) or 2 TRS to XLR cables for connecting speakers to the audio interface. You'll laptop/desktop internal sound card and the 3.5mm jack won't power these speakers. In addition you'd probably need isolation pads and might want to sound proof your studio for best results. If all this sounds like too much work, you probably don't need these​ speakers. Sound quality: In terms of sound quality, these are a tad better in showing the mid range and treble frequencies than ATH M50x. However M50x has brilliant tight bass. And such bass can only be achieved by sub woofers (Yamaha HS8S) Update after one month: After the break-in period the cones become more sensitive and the boomy sound has gone. With a little sound proofing these sounds amazing. With these speakers, placement and room acoustics are very important. Just buying the speakers and expecting wonders is incorrect. After experimenting with DB gain and trim found out the perfect setting for my room. The stereo separation and perfect. The instrument separation of brilliant and flat... If something if recorded, after the recording is done while mixing and mastering you'll get perfect output on how much compression and equing is required with each frequency band. This is critical so that the mix sounds good everywhere. Even the slightest equing must show through so the the perfect amount can be dialed in.. And these monitors do a perfect job at that.. Highly recommended for mixing tracks.. (for casual listening-do not buy these monitors you'll be disappointed in bass frequencies) Note: if bass frequencies are to be monitored accurately.,then investing in HS8S is a good idea. Or a pair of headphones (ATH M50X) would do just fine for the bass frequencies. Update After 2 months: Comparing them with my new Sennheiser HD 598 SE, I find these much more true to the original source. These speakers do not color the sound with any amplification which is an engineering feat considering that I'm comparing speakers with headphones where controlling the acoustics of speakers is far more difficult. I could have got a pair of HD650 or AKG K702 (as they are touted to be flat), but monitoring on speakers is much more natural and feels much better. One important point to consider, Room acoustics play a very important role in how your speakers sound. Also these speakers are very very directional, Unless you're not sitting right in the middle of the sweet spot (forming an equilateral triangle with the 2 speakers at the two vertices and your head at the third), you'll not get the best sound. The treble frequencies get muffled out if you're not sitting in the sweet spot. You also need to switch off your fans, coolers and ACs to completely immerse yourself in clean, pristine audio.
