Roland Studio Monitors Have Power But No Sound

I use this product for my studio monitors to get the absolute best sound from my audio interface to my monitors. No disappointments ever. Repeat mogami buyer.

Bought this amp to power some non-powered studio monitors I had gotten for my desktop editing system. ... Easy setup with regular 12 gauge wire. Great sound and controls. Very solid amp. The sound is great and crisp!

I like the way these studio monitors sound. I purchased several pairs.

This amplifier is, in one word, FANTASTIC. The power and sonic quality are beyond 5 stars. I'm using it with my Roland FP-90 piano. The sound is full, from high to low, and the mids have a nice punch. Plenty of power and the sound is out of this world! Shipping from B&H was excellent.

Fantastic for the studio monitors.

Is it an Atimos? No. BUT for the price this thing can't be beat! It has all the bells and whistles of other much more expensive monitors, zebras, peaking, histogram, false colors (though they don't quite match) and so on!

I bought this to replace an NEC 31 photo editing monitor that developed a red line down the center. This monitor is amazingly bright. It is sharper than the NEC LCD it replaced. Brightness and color uniformity seem very good. It was easy to install because it weighs nothing. I mounted it to a Ergotron LX monitor arm rather than use the included stand. The monitor comes with lots of cables. I like the way the cables come out of one place in the back. One thing that tickled me was the one-button user interface. It is hidden on the underside of the bezel by the LG Logo. Clever that the logo shows you where to push. You push to turn the monitor off and on. But there's more. This button is also a joystick for navigating the menus. This monitor has, by far, the easiest menu system I've ever used. I'm pretty old and have used dozens and dozens of monitors at work and at home over the years. This user interface takes the cake. You'll love it. That said, most people don't adjust their monitors very often so you may only use it a few times a year. But still. It will make you smile. The bezel is pretty thin on the sides which I like because I have two Kali studio monitors on each side of the monitor and want them close enough to the monitor for good stereo imaging when editing music. My only complaint so far is the short cable from the power supply to the monitor. Most monitors have AC in but this LG has a brick supply like a laptop computer. The small power cable coming out of the monitor is easy to snake through the cable channel in the Ergotron monitor stand. But it isn't long enough for the power supply to rest on the floor. I added a bracket on the back of my desk to hold the power supply and all is good now. If the cable had been a foot or two longer I wouldn't have had to do this. I like the thin HDMI cable that came with the monitor. It's a lot easier to connect to my laptop than the thick HDMI cable I had been using.

I purchased this amp to power my home studio monitors. I didn't need anything very loud and wanted an amp that was simple. Sound is clear with no buzz or hum. Lights are a little annoying. My monitors are only 6, but can handle up to 300 a piece, and this little guy fills them out nicely. The great thing is if it goes out on me, I simply throw it away and buy another one. Construction is very solid. Bottom line is it is, what it is If your looking for something to blow the roof off your house and all the bells and whistles, then this one is not for you. Now if your looking for an affordable, good sounding, compact, decent amp, then looki into this one.

It took me a few minutes to dial in the JBL, but once I figured that out it sounds smooth and complimented my setup perfectly. I'm not sure why anyone in a studio setting would want to use anything but the 80hz crossover. It had PLENTY of power, in fact, it's set to about 40 percent power to balance out with my studio monitors. Folks that say it doesn't have enough power need to turn down the gain of their monitors. The whole idea of a studio sub is not to blow you away (which this can certainly do) but rather to compliment (extend the frequency range of) the monitors. It does this very well. If you don't use this balance, your mixes will not be accurate may result in them being low-frequency deprived. I can easily switch between sub + crossovered monitors to monitors with no crossover with my Mackie 1642VLZ4 mixer. I just use a subgroup output to isolate my monitors without the sub. What makes this possible is that the HS8 monitors have 2 inputs, so your miles may vary. When dialing your sub in, remember that less is more. I've found this to be true in just about every facet of life. Happy Mixing.

As a long time user of KRK and Yamaha studio monitors -,I was blown away by the Sound reproduction of the 8010s! ..These little marvels have now replaced both my Yamaha HS5 and KRK rockit 5”s as my go to mixing monitors for music and film projects .,, could not be happier ..
