The Alesis M1 Active 520 is a newly designed, affordable, high-precision active reference monitor with Bass Density control and EQ. The M1 Active series offers incredible definition and flat frequency response from the high-precision drivers and a professionally crafted crossover. The cabinet and drivers have been redesigned for a bold new look and even greater sonic clarity.

The M1 Active 520 has a 1 inch thick front baffle, which minimizes speaker resonance, and the visually stunning acoustic waveguide evenly disperses high-frequency sound across your control room. The M1 Active includes new Bass Density technology, which allows you to tailor these monitors to any room’s acoustics. The distinctive top-mounted power/clip indicator lets you know if the speaker is clipping.

The M1 Active 520 features a 75-Watt amplifier and a 5 inch low frequency woofer, while the M1 Active 620 features a 100-Watt amplifier and 6.5 inch low frequency woofer.

General
Your general opinion of this product.
I am very impressed with these they have very low noise and give the music decent space, you can hear many panning positions within, not just R L or Center. The mid-range is detailed and crisp, Ive just tested them out with a variety of music Rock to dance and they sound quite accurate.
