IMPORTANT CORRECTION: As many of you have helpfully pointed out, I've been a dingus and said that these monitors are passive @2:04. This is not correct. These are ACTIVE studio monitors, and because I scripted it "Because these are not passive studio monitors" rather than "Because these are active studio monitors", I made a slip of the tongue and called these passive.

Left is active right is passive to be precise

@richardstrange9166 5 лет назад

You were correct originally they are really ‘powered speakers’ effectively passive they are not proper active speakers as they don’t have an active crossover and separate amps for each speaker.

Richard Strange nope.. they’re an active speaker set. I imagine it’s written on the box.

We had a 1st gen Echo in our master bathroom for listening to music in the morning ru-vid.comUgkxABghAEkaIDGZfHRBH3D3rBrlraNmnC71 and while in the shower. I didn't realize how tinny and awful the sound output on the original Echo was until we replaced it with the Studio. It was a sonic upgrade far beyond what I was expecting. Just wow. I love it because it's like having speakers IN the shower. My friend likes it because the music is so loud that she can no longer hear me singing. So that's a win-win.

@CademanLillywhite 3 года назад

Just received mine yesterday! And your recommendation definitely helped me make my decision. You are right, the sound is definitely a tad harsh and on the treble heavy side. But the bass packs a decent punch as well. Overall very happy with the purchase ☺️

Scroopy Noopers they are super nice! I’ll usually connect them to my laptop and then set the audio output of the DAW i’m using to the speakers but the input to the interface. Just make sure you’re not using input monitoring if you have a mic plugged in because that will hurt haha

@dgillies5420 3 года назад

I think what makes these speakers a MIRACLE is the 1" dome tweeter at this price point. This is something you usually don't get unless you've spent $200+. Since they have such a large dome tweeter, they can put most of the frequency range through the tweeter which helps A LOT with the clarity.

@camelCased 4 года назад

Thanks for the review. Wondering, is it possible to reduce the harshness in cases when I want to relax from my audio production work and just listen to some music? Does the treble knob behind the speaker help? What if I move farther away instead of being in the "sweet triangle", does the harshness go away? I'm looking for something small-size, neutral sounding, monitor-ish, but that could also be used for normal casual listening.

@InTheSh8 5 лет назад

Great review! I think I will buy them or the 4inchers. These Mackies CR are nice, too, but I think they lie! Only, you might wanna add that these are more monitor-like then multi-media. Therefore if you say they pack a punch people expect a pronounced bass and bathtub/low mids eq! They don't understand that in recording you want a linear response. Cheers

@GhostTurtleYT 2 года назад

After owning a set for about 3 years using them daily they are not bad for the money. Only thing is recently a few months ago the power switch started getting mushy and fell apart. But I feel like stepping up to the 4.5s at time of purchase is a better idea since there are times when they fall short.

@cmadlr 2 года назад

How about the bass? Can u feel it good to dj on it?

@shayneoneill1506 5 лет назад

I really feel it needs repeating. Studio monitors are the *wrong* choice for casual listening. They aren't designed for that. They are designed to be super precise for drilling into dense mixes and finding frequencies to enhance or supress, Probably the greatest Studio monitors of all time where the Yamaha NS10s. They are also renowned for being absolutely awful for casual listening. The music, the games, the video you consume are usually mastered so they sound best on conventional consumer Hifi speakers. If you want to listen as the artist intended, get *good* Hi-Fi speakers, NOT monitors. If your recording music or whatever, get Monitor speakers. Final tip. Part of what makes monitors ill suited for casual listening is the fact they focus the audio to a point in front of them where the sound will be most in phase and have the correct levels. Sitting outside that position, the quality rapidly degrades compared to regular HiFi speakers designed to throw the music around the whole room. If your recording music find out where that sweet spot is, and arange the speakers so when your working, thats where your head will be.

@donnythompson408 5 лет назад

Skull Fucker - I’ve used a lot of Presonus gear over the years. SL consoles, VSL pres/I-O’s, Faderport, Eris E8’s... I think it’s reasonable to say that they are likely the best... in their price class. But being “the best for the money” doesn’t make them “the best”. Beyond using the various products I mentioned above, I’ve also used Neve, API, SSL, Neumann, AKG, Apogee, Cranesong, Dynaudio’s, Genelec, ... Any piece of audio gear in the budget range can sound “the best” to you, if you’ve not had a chance to use, hear, and compare it to something better. I’m not saying that Presonus doesn’t make good gear - they do... for the money that it costs, you’d be hard pressed to find better. But “the best”? Hmmm... no, not so much.

@strongocho 4 года назад

These speakers are nice, I have had them for like a year, but they are simply too small. I agree they are the best studio monitors for under $100, but in that price range I honestly think you are better off mixing with headphones or even computer speakers with a sub. When using these 3.5 inch woofers, the bass is nonexistent and you will need to use headphones to mix basslines or kick drums anyway. The sound is incredible and very detailed, but I just cannot mix if I cannot hear the bass. Tldr > great for the price, but you are better off with $100 monitor headphones than $100 studio monitors
