I bought 2 recently for use with live bands ( did not want to risk my beloved NT1000s) and I am very impressed, a bit bright but the low end and midrange are very good IMO.
They are also pretty quiet, slightly quieter than my AT4035s
But remember I am the guy who is perfectly happy using a Berry Digital Desk so I reckon my ears are probably Fuc*ed ( what do you think Mr Q LOL)
