General

This is a two-way bi-amplified studio monitor with bass reflex that has outstanding sound for analogue and digital productions in stereo or surround format. It has a 5-inch woofer with 40 Watt amplifier and 1-inch dome tweeter with 27-watt amplifier. The tweeter works with a Waveguide horn that results in a sound distribution over 120 degrees. This creates the best sound balance from every listening position. The flat frequency response up to 40 Hz makes it ideal for listening to and mixing master recordings. The back is equipped with a jack and an XLR input, adjustable input sensitivity, volume control in 31 steps, high trim and low trim in 34 positions which can correct the sound characteristics of the room.

Wrote the following about Yamaha MSP5 studio active monitor (per piece)
Ik gebruik deze al van 1992, wel samen met de bijhorende subwoofer. Deze klinken, zonder sub, zoals een NS10; een in your face monitor. de meesten die hier al eens passeren vinden de klank niks. MAAR, net als de NS10 zijn ze erg gedetailleerd. Zero gekleurd. Maar als je mix hier op goed klinkt, klinkt het overal goed. Om gewoon naar te luisteren zou ik meer naar andere merken gaan, hier staan ook Genelec's, erg goede referentie monitors. Maar om te mixen ga ik resoluut voor de Yamaha. Wel met de sub uitgeschakeld. Met sub krijg je toch wat kleuring, en dat wil ik dus niet.

Wel, Ja en nee.

Deze monitoren werken prima om muziek te luisteren, te gamen, en om te experimenteren met audio.
Dus ja. goed spul.

Maar, wil je mixen, ruimte definieren, bepaalde frequenties benadrukken, analytisch werken met audio dan zijn deze niet wat je zoekt.
In dit geval leg je je lat best wat hoger ( en helaas inherent daaraan, duurder)

Voor mij was het in het begin een "ja", maar al redelijk snel een "nee". Vandaar de minder positieve score.

Ik heb de speakers zelf niet besteld bij bax-shop, maar heb ze van een vriend gekregen. echter heb ik al veel spullen bij Bax-shop besteld en ik ben altijd zeer te spreken over de service. dus ik ga er van uit dat dat bij deze speakers ook zo is.

de speakers hebben een mooi 'clean' geluid. zowel in het hoog als in de mid-sectie is het geluid perfect. doordat de speakers maar een 5 inch woofer hebben, kan je het laag er niet helemaal perfect mee mixen. wel helpen de bass-ports die voor op zitten daarbij omdat je door de lucht die daar door komt de bass toch een beetje kan voelen.

ik ben zelf heel blij met deze speakers, en als u zoekt naar een compacte set monitoren waar u goed op kunt mixen zou ik deze zeker aanraden.
