Review of Yamaha MSP3 Powered Desktop Monitor


Feature:
I like the volume control knobs on the front--very accessible. There's also high and low equalizers, which I don't seem to need because I like the response flat and accurate. It's also nice to have two volume control levels for the two inputs, which I currently don't use but probably will in the future when I practice along with music.

Quality:
Seems like it's built to last forever. Solid construction.

Value:
Price seems pretty fair. I'm very pleased with the sound for my particular application--amplifying my digital piano in my home, so I don't feel I paid too much.

Desirability:
I like the styling--simple straightforward, professional looking, not too flashy, and delivers great sound.

Sound:
I use a pair of the MSP3 monitors for my Yamaha P80 digital piano and the sound is very accurate and responsive. I feel like practicing even more now that I have good speakers!

Support:
Haven't had to, thankfully, and don't plan to need it.

Overall:
The MSP3s work great for what I need them for--monitoring my piano playing in my apartment. I wonder if they'll be loud enough to play at parties or small gigs? I may have to buy some more powerful speakers when that time comes, but the MSP3s cannot be beat for monitoring my piano sound in my home studio.
