    I've heard mixed reviews. Some say they are incredible monitors and others say they are too coloured, yet great sounding, but suited to the home entertainment etc.
    I am very interested in them for their power and bass response.

    Hi bigtree, yea I did the same thing, they seem like great monitors, just trying to find users. Hey I want to thank you for your input on my RodeNT1's matched pair. I sold them and got me a pair of Shure KSM32's, simply rock!!!.

    I've even considered changing my name to "What"? That way, in large noisy crowds, I would think everybody is trying to talk to me and be my friends.

    I am also curious as to what people think about these monitors. Sweetwater posts the specs as having a "Frequncy range of 20Hz-20kHz (+/-0.2dB)". That's INSANE!!! That can't possibly be true with only a 250 W amp, can it? 20 Hz needs tons of power.

    Well of course it's true. Frequency response measurements are generally done with around 1 W of power. And anyhow, I think that advertising blah blah is BS. Everything is rated from 20-20,000 for advertising purposes. And anyhow, to reproduce 20 Hz, you would need a gigantic control room to allow a 20 Hz wave to be able to propagate properly. No control room is that big. It's like those jokers driving down the street with their boom boom car stereos. You can hear them from three blocks away because it requires that much space for those low frequencies to travel and propagate. They can't hear crap like that in their car as the airspace is too small. They can only feel the bass as they rattle the sheet metal and disturb people for blocks around. You can't fix stupid and you can't fix selfish people that want to share their crap noise with everybody else whether they like it or not. You don't need to go down to 20 Hz to create a good mix. JBL 4310/11/12 made lots of rock 'n roll hits back in the day and they didn't go anywhere below 40 Hz or so. You are listening with your eyes. Listen first then judge. Specifications mean nothing in the dishonest marketing world we live in. And of course your confusion about hearing 20 Hz makes you think that you need to have 250 W of power? Try 600 if you want those speakers to shake your dingle for Ya'. Oh, they blow up with that much power? Then I wouldn't buy them. My JBL's are rated at continuous 75 W RMS but they have easily lived through over 200 W at peak power. Stuff that back into your cracker Jack box.

    Where's my free prize? (Crunch crunch)
