    You should try the Abacus Electronics C-Box 3. It’s a compact speaker, yet the bass reaches down to 35 Hz, and you can clearly hear those low frequencies. The sound is incredibly clear with a very flat frequency response. The C-Box 4, its "big brother," goes even deeper, down to 30 Hz. Abacus also makes the Cortex 6, which reaches an impressive 16 Hz! I’ve tested both, and I own the C-Box 4 myself. It’s amazing how deep the bass goes and how clear the sound remains.

    Im kinda impressed by the sound of these new CR3.5's to be honest! I was not a huge fan of the original line but these do have a nice little boost in SQ compared to the prior that sounded flat and dull. I will say even for general audio listening, under$100? not too shabby. I'm personally a fan of the better color/clarity the Presonus offer if I want something cheap to use as reference monitors for studio work.

    Well, i think they have warmer sound, maybe they are better for music listening but i dont know how accurate sound they produce (not saying that the presonuses do).

    I won't buy another Mackie speaker. It has issues with a lose connection since I first got it. I didn't realize it at first because the volume was always kept low, and then once getting volume up to about mid way, the static and drops offs began. I had it four months before the first time I plugged in the headphone jack which never worked. I'm disappointed. I now have a set of Yamahas that are a far better studio monitor.

    • @EdwardSmithMusic
      @EdwardSmithMusic  2 หลายเดือนก่อน

      I would go with the BX5's because they have a bigger cone which will result in getting more low end.

      for the same price you can get DT770 heaphones from Beyerdynamic, which arentry level priced but still trusted by professionals all over the world, and sound incredible in my opinion (im not a pro but jeez they are awesome)

    I still don't get why a lot of you guys who review music equipment especially speaker doesn't have a stereo X/Y microphones portable recorder to record these and instead relying on a crappy mics then showing us a monoral reference?.... I mean it's not that much expensive to buy one and will improve the review experience having it because you can actually show in stereo, even a cheap pair of MXL pencil mic will improve the audio.
