M-AudioBX4 4.5" Studio Monitors, HD PC Speakers for Recording and Multimedia with Music Production Software, 120W, Pair

I bought these following advice from my son, a bit of a musician, and to be able to use as better speakers than those on a laptop, particularly when I record my own music... well.. I can tell you now.. these speakers are very powerful considering their size and the sound quality I found to be fabulous. The only issue I have may not actually be the speakers ... but when I turn off the PC/laptop.. and leave the speakers in ON position.. there arrives a loud buzz... I must remember to turn off the speakers!

Love them. Big step up from my old ones. Crisp sound, solid but not exaggerated bass. I have them on their sides and they sound great. Watch out for the power cable mine was supplied as a European one. Amazon bunged me a couple of quid and I bought a quality UK plug cable

For what they are they seem good. There is not much bass coming out of them but mids and highs clarity is really good. Price is reasonable as well. If you need very small simple setup I would recommend but if you can afford don't go less that 5 inches.

I got them because i had a lack of space around my current desktop gaming pc and was previously using a minisystem plus speakers. I though i'd give these a go simply for the fact that they are a lower footprint on my workspace. ..Oh my god..the sounds is SO much better and i hardly need to turn the volume knob up at all!! It starts low at 6 oclock.. I have only turned it to 7 maybe 8 oclock and the sound is what i would normally have on my minisystem but my minisystem would nearly be maxed out!! Lots of headroom if i wanted to annoy the neighbours.Nice and clean look and very easy to install.I am not into mixing music so i wouldnt know how they react, they do have a seperate low end dial and a high end dial on the back, so can be adjusted manually.I personally Would definately reccomend them to a non recording/Gaming studio setup.

I've been rocking a pair of Creative speakers for the best part of 20 years, but I need something less tuned for gaming and music playback (e.g bass and treble heavy) these days but really can't afford to shell out a few hundred quid on a pair of pro monitors.Firstly, they come with all cables needed to plug into a PC and go, which is great. Secondly, and most importantly, they sound great! Highs and lows can be tuned to your preference (I turned the bass down a little and treble up a little) to suit my preferred levels and within a minute I had them sounding exactly as I wanted them to. Even podcasts sound better. As desktop PC speakers they are more than loud enough and there's no hiss, no electronic noise in the background and I really wish I'd bought these sooner. Absolutely delighted with this purchase. Read some reviews claiming these lack bass... no, they don't!

First of all (as pointed out in other reviews) these speakers DO NOT output 120 watts (as stated on the box). On the very last page of the user guide it quite clearly states that these are 2 x 25 watt (RMS) speakers with a total peak of 120 watts. This means that the speakers will take short bursts of up to 120 watts without blowing the cones out! This depends on what is put through them. Also, only 1 speaker is powered (has an amp inside with controls and input sockets), the other is just a speaker in a cab.The sound quality is very good for the size of the actual speakers, although this may change if operated at full volume. I was impressed with the bass response and the built quality is also very good.Inputs include standard 'guitar lead' type sockets (left and right), RCA sockets (left and right), a 3.5mm AUX input socket and a headphone output socket. Also there are low and high frequency EQ cut/boost knobs.A selection of speaker connection leads and a mains lead are included and also some felt pads that can be attached to the bottom of each speaker.Finally, I would like to thank Amazon for prompt delivery. I bought these 'Like New' (at a discount) from the Amazon warehouse and when unboxed I could not tell them apart from a brand new pair.I happy with my purchase although these speakers are not as loud as I expected.

Well made. Solid. Roughly 15cm square and 20cm tall. All synthetic material but good quality.Sound?Great for £80 approx. You can adjust the bass and treble on the back of the powered speaker and those controls are very responsive. Brilliant high frequency response and good midrange. Acceptable bass, which is unsurprisingly not floor shaking but it is there and is smooth and refined.These are not pro studio monitors but are great for home use. They are very detailed, especially upper mids to high frequencies. I like them for vocals and guitar.Recommended. Great value.

You can get a decent sound out of this but nothing special, not very loud but loud enough for a bedroom
