These are really great monitors. Amazing frequency response from 38 HZ to 30 KHz. Very clear sound throughout the spectrum. Very good low end so if you buy these speakers you will not need the sub. If you get HS7 i would suggest you get the sub also. Mainly after one month with these speakers i can honestly say that my mixes were cut short by half of the time because now its so easy to identify what needs to be corrected. I wish i had bought those earlier! :)

Unmatched in their price bracket. you wont need anything else until youre convinced you need something in the ¢1000 to ¢2000 price range, which for me wont be for a very very long time, the pros use these, albums get written on them, says it all. Great response across the audio spectrum.

Out of the 2-3 other monitors in this price range, this one is by far the best in my opinion and millions of other people on online forums like gearslutsz.com.
The mids are clean and cutting, the bass goes down deep to the club frequencies of 43 Hz nicely and punchy. the highs are truly sparkling.
You can find these monitors in professional studios and is designed by the same person who designed the legendary ns10 Yamaha monitors.
Recommended for all ranges !!!
