High End Studio Monitor Speakers

I recently purchased the Kali Lone Pine Studio Monitor V2 speakers and I am blown away by their performance. The sound quality is crystal clear and the bass response is impressive. The compact size makes them perfect for my home studio, but they pack a punch that can easily fill a larger room. The build quality is top-notch and they look great on my desk. I highly recommend the Kali Lone Pine Studio Monitor V2 speakers to anyone in need of an upgrade to their studio setup.

I needed a monitor controller for my studio for two pairs of speakers and a couple of inputs. As much as some of the functionality of active monitor controllers appeals to me, the sound quality is first and foremost. And we all know that unless you spend $3k - $10k most active systems severely color your sound - a little more than my current budget. I wasn't sure what to expect with this affordable passive controller however, after spending a few weeks with it I can say without a doubt that it is a great addition to my studio. I hear no coloration or change to the stereo sound field. The Mute, Dim, and Mono sum functions are really handy. And the build quality feels good under your hand. My only complaint is that it would be nice if the knob travel was detented for repeatable levels. Two Big Thumbs Up!

These monitor speakers, although pricy, are very well suited to mixing and editing in protools for a studio either at home or in a formal studio setting. They are transparent with a very flat sound that does not emphasize any particular aspect of the frequency spectrum. Flat sound as used here is a good thing. The bass is surprisingly strong in my editing room which only about 8' x 10'. I did add a subwoofer for frequencies below 50Hz. The highs are exceptionally clear and the midrange very smooth. These speakers are very easy on the ears even after several hours editing. I highly recommend them. I use them mainly to edit recording of live theatrical musical performances.

Simple and rock solid studio monitor knob! If you own multiple studio speakers. This is a must! Mackie does its job as always!

It only took a few minutes to assemble and position these stands. I use them for my computer's M-AUDIO studio monitor speakers. Since I installed the stands, I've been wondering why I didn't buy them sooner. The sound is so much better having the speakers at the right height.

When I was much younger (aged 65 now), I worked at a high end audio store and I sold the heck out of JBL Studio monitors. Excellent speakers, efficient power usage, precise, great cabinetry (early 80's). Compared to Dahlquist, Polk, and others, JBL's were the best for all types of music, for music lovers who appreciate precision. 15 or so years ago, I purchased JBL Home Studio speakers for surround AV use in my home. Great sound, but poor design of the dumb mylar rimmed drivers failed waay prematurely and I was unable to purchase replacement drivers and ended up with Kef speakers. A year ago, I purchased the JBL Charge 3 and was pleasantly surprised with the sound quality, especially for a bluetooth speaker. I took my Charge 3 everywhere. I am a beekeeper and landscape designer and would take my Charge 3 with me to my apiaries and landscape jobs. Again, one of the drivers failed unexplainedly (grrrr) and I am baffled because I am picky and intolerant of any sign of distortion that might damage my speakers. VERY PICKY. So now, I have purchased a Charge 4 and am again very pleased with the sound. I am a little surprised by the larger size and the resulting better bass response, but I am waiting to see if it, like lots of speakers, diminish the high and midrange frequencies for more bass. I haven't had it long enough to do some critical listening with specific pieces of music yet. I listen to everything, but always ultimately return to jazz. We will see. I never could imagine replacing my amplifiers and multi speaker systems, but these JBL bluetooth speakers have me at least briefly considering the potential as I age and start downsizing and considering changing my old High Fidelity habits for simpler and less things. In part, that will depend upon the reliability and durability of my Charge 4

High quality studio monitors that look great! In a world of black speakers it's so nice to have good looking monitors with studio sound. Setup is easy and you can put the volume knob speaker on the left or the right. Good bass, clear highs and accurate reproduction with no baked in EQ. Would definitely recommend!

Follow the instructions and its easy to put together. One tip: Stand the monitor on End and adjust the tensions all the way up, that way when you let it off with a few turns at a time the monitor wont be damaged . Adjust till you get it where you want it.

Awesome. End of story.

End the mess
