As someone who has been looking to buy a pair of studio monitors to replace an old 2.1 setup, I found these and immediately ordered them to test. I didn’t realize till later that it was only for one monitor as is common practice for manufacturers of studio monitors (outside of bundles and those targeting the average consumer).Regardless, I was curious to try it out anyway. The unit comes with a relatively thin but flexible 3.5mm to RCA cable which is too short to connect to both a left and right monitor unless they were literally inches apart. The standard power cable is included but I decided to use my own.Since I don’t have any equipment to measure its performance, I’ll just give some general remarks: Bass extends relatively deep, being somewhat audible in the 40-50Hz range (manual claims 47Hz response) but isn’t too boomy to listen to male vocals or rap. The highs are inoffensive and it’s bright enough for my liking as I also tend to a lot of music with female vocals. It seems to be missing that special sauce in the middle though, but it’s good enough for most listeners ($300 good? Not so sure about that…).There are switches to control the low and high gain to compensate for the room setup. In my case I increased the low end despite the wall being directly behind the speaker and it still sounds fine for most non critical use cases. The usual RCA, 1/4”, and XLR connections on the rear as well as a power switch and gain knob.I used a Y-splitter so I could use a stereo signal with my one speaker and it worked well when I played back YouTube, YouTube TV, movies, and video games. At the moment I’m using it as an oversized alternative to a soundbar for a smaller TV (mounted above the TV since it’s quite wide even when placed on its side).I wish I could comment on the overall stereo sound but for now it is relegated to casual listening and maybe in the future use it with my budget vinyl setup.As for its value, it’s not so impressive as significantly cheaper systems are able to achieve similar or better performance. Paired with the lack of specs in the product descriptions, it’s already a big gamble for many potential buyers especially when it’s an unknown brand with no reputation in the pro audio world. There’s a frequency response graph and the bare minimum specs in the back of the physical manual but that doesn’t help the person shopping for monitors online as you can at least demo other systems in person at a guitar center or other retail shop instead of buying sight unseen.Needless to say, I would not buy a single speaker for mono use at its current price if $300 at the time of review.

I am very impressed with the power output of this monitor. It pretty effortlessly can put some some serious volume and has very filling bass. The mids/highs are not drowned out though. It looks great and feels very solid and well-built. It is on the expensive side being this is only for a single speaker but given the weight and build quality I am confident it will last a long time. I do feel that the speaker even in neutral low frequency gain has to be boosting the bass a bit so I do not think speaker is as transparent as I would want a real "studio monitor" to be, but for other uses a bit of bass boost is probably desirable.

I'm really impressed with the build quality of this particular speaker. The base is clear as well as the mid and high range is excellent. I usually utilize these for listening to podcast instead of music but this would be excellent for music as well.
