Frequently Asked Questions
The DSP is effective for basic room correction, but it's less sophisticated than fully adjustable software. It's a great starting point, but serious acoustic treatment remains essential.
While the 7-inch woofer performs well, sub-bass frequencies may require a dedicated subwoofer for truly impactful low-end reproduction in those genres.
The plastic construction keeps the monitors lightweight and affordable, but it does slightly impact the overall resonance compared to a denser MDF cabinet. It's well-braced, however, and doesn't significantly compromise sound quality.
