I bought these monitors as a backup because my KRK's are being fixed under warranty. They are more than adequate for the money although I probably wouldn't recommend them for a pro level mixing session.

Just got 'em, hooked 'em up and was very happy and impressed! I ran a couple of RCA's to my Tascam DP-02 and boddaboom-boddabing! Very honest and transparent sound. What you put in is what you get! Volume/lows/highs..perfectly acceptable! Got the black one's on sale. Awesome deal! For the money, you can't go wrong here!

Comments about Fostex PMO.4n Powered Studio Monitor Pair:
First off, I have not had these very long. Second, I have never owned a set of studio monitors prior. I have recorded in studios though, so I've heard the power of good ones, but it also depends on the room you are in.
I have been doing my bands mixes for awhile now with headphones. I was told that practice was taboo in the world of recording, so I decided to get some monitors. I wanted something reasonably cheap, and that would be easy to tear down and setup.
I didnt know exactly what to look for so I basically went of consumer reviews. For the most part they are right. They sound good! Like listening to music in a car with the upgraded sound package. I actually do that in my car when I mix and master songs for my band because my car had good speakers and a subwoofer. My headphones tended to cut the bass, so it sounded good with headphones....but then when your in your car, it's like a Three 6 Mafia concert. Now I can get it good from the get-go
They have pretty decent bass response as well for as small as they are. You can listen to rap and feel the bass. They are nice and clear. They also have some aesthetic value as well
To use them with an interface you will need 2x 1/4" balanced TRS cables, to use them with your computer's headphone jack, go to radio shack and get a rca to stereo 3.5mm.
Pros
- Clear Sound
- Durable

Comments about Fostex PMO.4n Powered Studio Monitor Pair:
New to recording, went with the cheapest possible stuff to get started. Price does not mean a thing when it comes to these monitors. Im new to recording, but experienced in sound and music. Ive been playing pro and semi-pro gigs in and around BC Canada since I was 15 and I know quality when I see and hear it and these have it! Amazing for the price...so amazing Im getting a second pair. Figure my interface has 6 paired outs....Im gonna utilize them. :) Very pleased with this product!

Comments about Fostex PMO.4n Powered Studio Monitor Pair:
This is an excellent value. Flat frequency response and very clear sound. Surprising bass tone from a 4 inch speaker. I was initially going to buy one of the more expensive Rockit sets, but the Fostex outperformed.
