Great and nice looking speakers, annoying LED.

Sockerfar, 11.03.2021

I bought these monitors for my home studio and they do everything I want them to do.

They sound great, and they have enough bass support on their own without any external sub. Admittedly, I am not a pro with enough knowledge to tell you how they differ from other brands and products, but I am very happy with the performance of these speakers.

I only have one real complaint, the LED on the front stays lit as long as the speakers have power. I would very much have preferred no light, or that the speakers entered some form of sleep mode if no signal was sent over a set period of time. Now I have an extension cord with an onboard power switch dedicated to these two and my soundcard only to be able to kill the lights in a convenient manner.

Geniales !!!

stratovilla, 23.11.2020

Absolument magnifiques ! Un controle précis pour réaliser ses prod, avec zero surprise quand on les écoute sur d'autres systèmes. Certaines critiques leur attribuent un manque de basses. Je pense que certains sont soit sous influence, soit sourds... Parce que tout y est. Et à ce prix-là, surtout en version apairées, on peut y aller les yeux fermés. Mes les oreilles grandes ouvertes pour apprécier ces HS 8!!!
