i've heard em in action, and the shit reviews were right... dont bother man.

the wharefdale 8.1 actives i really liked.

---

i have the tapco s8s, they have a deeper bass response.
you mind providing me with a bad review, i have only read good ones as to now.

---

I was refering to the s5's not the s8's.

Cant comment on the s8's LD, and wasnt commenting on them. i stand by what said about the s5's, didnt like em at all, and wasnt impressed. I heard them in action more thaN once.

As for the reviews, this was about 8 months ago and i never took note of where they were as i was just looking, ill know better next time - just in case you ask me again... ;) :roll:

Couldn't help myself to mention... just bouth Quik Lok BS300 stands to place my Alesis m1 mk2 and now they sound BRUTAL...

Super stereo imagem and a lot of definition...

..the quik lok thingys look like they came from a dumpster and not thomann.de... for 50€ each they should look good :(

You're right... When i read user reviews i look for those who are saying bad about the products, usually i don't care much about the "I've bought it and it rocks" users.

I've seen totally crap begginer stuff get good ratings from home-reviewrs just because they dont know how things should sound like.


joão

KRK Rokit RP5's or the Alesis M1 Active Mk2's ???????
