KRK is the bees knees!
Quality:
Extremely well made and very durable.
Features:
I think the size is probably it's best feature. I didn't have a lot of room on my mixing desk yet these filled the bill nicely. Good job KRK.
Ease of Use:
It's a speaker...How hard can it be. Plug in and get ready to be blown away. Don't let the size fool you.
Sound:
Faithful at every frequency. Regardlees if I'm mixing country, contemporary christian, rock, R&B, pop, or jazz they are spot on. I can't imagine mixing with anything else.
Reliability:
I've only had them a few months but I think these babies are going to last a long time.
Overall:
These ROCK! Nice tight bass and a gleaming high end. I really feel these do a great job at faithfully reproducing my mixes. For this price you won't find anything close. I promise.

The New Standard In Monitoring
Quality:
These monitors are surprisingly hefty and feel quite dense and rugged.
the rear panel is laid out nicely with protective shields over the various switches.
Features:
The sound of these monitors is amazing!
These are some of the most balanced and neutral monitors I've ever used.
I believe these are fast becoming a new standard.
Ease of Use:
Fall off a log simple to hook up.
The manual is VERY comprehensive. More manufacturers should follow KRK's example in this regard.
Sound:
The overall sound of these monitors is so balanced and neutral that I find myself forgetting that I'm listening to speakers.
As I mentioned earlier the depth of field is incredible.
Reliability:
I seriously can't comment on that at this point in time because I've only had them for a month.
Overall:
The sound of these monitors is so reveling and the depth of field is simply incredible.
This is some of the best money I've spent in recent memory.
Do you own this product?:
Yes.

Simply mindblowing for their size (when they work)
Quality:
Within a week the woofer on one of the monitors went silent. Not blown, just dead. Bad wiring? Either way, AMS got me another one pronto and no problems. Oh, except that they very quietly pick up radio signals no matter what cabling I use. I've read some forums online and it seems to be a common problem with these speakers not being shielded enough. A little tin foil around the back helps a lot.
Features:
They have a ground lift switch, but it does nothing to help with the radio signals. Sigh. The limiter (with defeat) switch is a nice option to make sure you never blow them.
Ease of Use:
Easy. Use balanced cables and turn them on! Unless you pick up radio signals, then you have to mess with tin foil.
Sound:
Incredible! I spent hours one day in large monitor room (in a big music store in hollywood) testing music on different monitors and I kept coming back to these. I just can't believe how balanced across the spectrum these tiny speakers are. The bass in unbelievable for a 4" woofer. Super clean. I actually think they are better to mix on than their larger counterparts. Simple and accurate. And for the price, I cannot recommend them highly enough.
Reliability:
First week one woofer goes dead. Probably a fluke. The replacement is fine. Been a few weeks now.
Overall:
For the size/price range, I wouldn't want anything else. Perfect little monitors that are a pleasure to work with. Just wish they were shielded better.
