Nice pads and do the job well for the price, I ended up trimming the lengths so there was no more overhang on my monitors.

Sound amazing for the price, lack a little in bass but if you are using reference tracks it doesnt stop you. Reliable, careful delivery and good email updates.

These are the best studio monitors you can get for the price. You will not be disappointed, they are stylish and well made, the surface finish is very good. Sound quality is perfect for small home studio, and gives a nice flat response. I would buy these again, and am considering others in the Yamaha HS range.
