Micca PB42X Powered Bookshelf Speakers, 30-Watt RMS Power, Active Near Field Studio Monitors, 2-Way (Black, Pair)

Very satisfied with this speaker sound quality very good overall build quality very good 👍👍👍👍👍

Bought these book shelf size speakers to play my music. Excellent sound quality and siund for the price.

Good set of speakers. I used these for my surround set up as side speakers.

Good and clear sound especially human voices/dialogues, value for money.

its a good choice for a base level studio.

Excellent value for the money.

I'll use my pictures to guide anyone through this review. A picture is worth a thousand words. I'll be making several references to the last $77 pair of passive bookshelf speakers I bought from Amazon as well, the Singing Wood T25. Let's go! Pic 1. Box is nice and well detailed, see the photos 2. Product features are highlighted and pictured 3. Good for Micca to put a 'new product' seal (merely a piece of paper) on the box. Makes it slightly.... less tamper-proof. Reminded me of my last review (one star) I gave to a center speaker I ordered (Monoprice) that arrived all gunked up as it was opened before and used. 4. Speakers were indeed brand new, even individually bagged. Excellent so far. 5. They don't come attached with rubber feet, you need to put them on yourself. I think it's so you can use those acoustic isolation pads or whatever, if you choose, and the feet won't get in the way. I'm not going to as them sponges gather dust, 'nuff said. 6. Rear of the speakers, binding posts/banana inlets aren't as quality as my Singing Woods. Plastic here feels cheaper tho not that brittle. Disappointing. I know this is a budget speaker but if you want to be king of budget you'll have to pay attention to these things... 7/8. Wah. Build quality is def a little lower than my SWs. There is a vinyl wrap that looks and feels quite ok, but I wonder how it will hold up over time. Considering it will be situated near a window, I'm just crossing my fingers. For my SWs, DVD the lovely beech wood grain wrap looks quality and can fool you as being actual wood. The magnet front grilles also are a little loose, and not quality either. I guess most ppl will remove them but I need them to ward off the dust and kids.... 9. This is where all the negatives end. I hooked them up to both an av receiver and a small tube amplifier. I would say the small tube amp kicked the Pioneer receiver to the curb.... Sound quality was amazing with this speaker! I even did a direct A/B comparison with my SW T25s, the Micca Mb42x, which costed $40 more at $118, truly sounds that much better and even more so! Treble: Good, yet not harsh, unlike the Singing Woods, when cranked up loud. Mids: As good as the SW. Bass: Without a proper crossover, the SW's bass response really gets very unfocused and complicated bass passages just blend into each other. It just comes across as if the woofer can't keep up. But the MB42x, with a properly designed crossover, nailed fast and complicated bass passages excellently. Literally you can hear every note; it's actually like the bassist was playing better, on the same recording! A truly astounding difference! I listened to Linkin Park's Hybrid Theory 20th Anniversary album, comparing both speakers. In conclusion, you get what you pay for, more ex than the Singing Wood and sound is proportionally and also exponentially better. You can't ask for more than that. I'm pretty sure speakers of this caliber would have costed much more years ago. Only con is the crappy build quality. Oh yeah, no speaker wires, unlike the T25, which came with 2x 2.5m 18awg wires, nicely soldered at the tips! Micca could learn a thing or 5 from Singing Wood!! I hope the vinyl wrap won't start peeling off after a few years....

Very please with the speakers. I'm not audiophile but in combination with a Fosi TPA3255 they sound very nice.

デスクトップオーディオで以前8センチフルレンジSPだったので、もう少し 低音が欲しくなり１２センチクラスのSPを探していました。 ヤマハやJBLなら問題のない音が出るのでしょうが、それでは面白くないので 他メーカーを探していたところ海外レビューを中心に良い評価の本製品を見つけました。 価格は有名メーカーの半分ほど。これでどんな音が再生されるのか？半分好奇心で 購入したのですが、聞いてみてビックリ！高音から低音まで非常にバランス良く、 クリアでパンチのある音色で、特に中音域のスネアやパーカッションの艶とキレが 素晴らしい。 最初シャリシャリした音が気になりましたが、半日ほどで消えました。 英文取説に加え、和文のセッティングガイドまで付属しており、最高のパフォーマンスで 聞いてほしいというメーカーの製品にかける熱意と自信を感じました。 同タイプのSPでは間違いなくトップクラスの音だと思います。
