The front-mounted volume control and individual bass and treble controls make accurate sound adjustments a breeze. Two stereo line inputs (RCA and eighth-inch TRS) allow simultaneous use of two stereo sources, so you can play back CDs, MDs or MP3s and use an electric guitar/keyboard at the same time. In addition, the quarter-inch TRS microphone input lets you mix vocals with a stereo track.

SUBJECTIVE REVIEW: Behringer MS16 2-Way Active Personal Monitor System

Pros:
- Accuracy, soundstage & imaging!!
- Connectivity & Front Panel Controls (Right CH Speaker):
.... INPUT 1 (1/8" TRS) Connector
.... INPUT 2 (RCA Right & Left) Connectors
.... ADJUSTABLE 1/4" TRS Microphone Input - mixable w/stereo inputs for playback and vocal monitoring applications
.... 1/8" TRS HEADPHONE Connector w/auto-mute loudspeaker function.
.... FRONT PANEL Controls (Bass, Treble & Level)

Cons:
None except deep bass - which can be resolved by adding a powered-sub like I did!!! ;-)

NOTE: All subjective comments based on:

1) SPEAKER LOCATIONS:
.... a) Free-standing near-field monitor location, 4' apart, slightly tilted-in (closes walls 10') - Music by my Polaroid 30 GB MP3 player (NO powered-sub )

3.0 out of 5 stars usable quality speakers for a cheap price, August 24, 2005

i bought these speakers to carry round with my laptop when i go to friends. when i first tried them i thought the resonance on the upper bass was terrible, but then i tore up a shirt and stuffed cotton down the bass ports to dampen the bass resonance. now they sound quite good for a portable monitor speaker. i don't think i could have got better for the price. i wouldn't recommend them as a home studio monitor but as a portable monitor, they're good value if you tackle the problem of excessive bass resonance. i understand that the bass resonance is supposed to compensate for the lack of bass due to the speakers being small, but it's better to have a clear sound than boomy distorted bass at a single resonant frequency.

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellet Small Monitors, October 3, 2008
Amazon Verified Purchase( What's this?)
This review is from: Behringer MS16 Powered Studio Desktop Monitors (Electronics)
Very good little speakers for the price. I purchased these to use as computer speakers because of the option to mix in two sources, as I use two PC's at my desk and enjoy the ability to get sound from both out of the one pair of speakers. I was slightly disappointed that there is no option to adjust the level of the two inputs independently.

The audio quality, however, does not disappoint. I was pleasantly surprised by the power as well as the good high and low range response. I would recommend them over any similarly priced set of computer speakers. The bass response is comparable to (and the mid-range and high end clarity far better than) any low or mid-priced 2.1 speaker setup I've seen, so don't worry about the lack of a sub woofer option. They also drive headphones very well, even really demanding ones like my Sennheiser HD-540 reference headphones, which require a lot of power.
