Podium Pro 1200C Studio Speakers 12" Three Way Pro Audio Monitor Pair for PA DJ Home or Karaoke

Crystal clear sound and definitely worth the money. Currently debating buying another set. Arrived in perfect condition with no loose screws, plates, etc. Kinda scared to push these things to the max since its blasting the entire house on a relatively LOW setting. Used with the Pyle Pro PTA1000 1000 Watt DJ Amplifier and I cannot tolerate the sound levels past the +6 DB levels. These things are REALLY loud.Would give it a 4.5 star rating since I am unwilling to push these things to the max. Definitely worth the money.

These studio monitors are exactly what I needed to replace the stereo speakers I've been stuck using for a couple years. Very affordable for their category, louder than anything I have, will buy more if I can. Speaker grills on the woofers seem kind of flimsy, but I'm sure they will hold up to a beatin on the road.

Based on the initial comments from previous customers, I decided to purchase two pairs of these speakers for a modest event or two I have planned later this year. To my delight, the shipment came in sooner than expected. After unpacking the two pairs I tested them with the GTD-Audio 9100 powered pre-amp that I also purchased and additional audio cabling. Every thing sounded great and the speakers were loud and clear, performed well and I thought the workmanship excellent for the price, initially. I put everything aside for a week and then decided to test them again in a different configuration after mulling over the temptation to order another two pairs. This is when I discovered a pea-sized hole in one of the 12" woofer cones, which was obscured by the safety grill. Upon closer inspection, the hole appeared to be a defect during manufacture and not one caused by careless handling or delivery.Since I was impressed and enamered by the over all quality of the Pro Audio Monitor 1200C speaker sets and ignorant as to how to go about remedying this matter since only one-half of one of the pairs was actually defective, I decided to email the seller (OnlyFactoryDirect) with an explanation of the problem and asked for advice. I received an email response with an apology within the week with a free shipping label to aid in my return and subsequent exchange of the defective product.Needless to say, I am impressed by the performance and the quality of the majority of the merchandise I ordered and OnlyFactoryDirect for its promptness and eagerness to correct a problem with one of its products.A WORD OF ADVICE: Replace the factory 1 3/8" top hat mount at the bottom of the speaker boxes with metal ones. These are fairly inexpensive and can be found here at the Amazon site. The plastic ones that come with the units can break easily and offer resistance to mounting on an adjustable pole stand when new making it difficult to determine if the speaker box is fully seated. The metal ones slide right in and are much easier to unmount too, especially if you're setting up and breaking down the assembly by yourself!

This is my second pair of these speakers after I blew out the first set. They are not some super high quality speaker components but the chassis is very rugged and durable. I did blow the firs pair because I push them above their limits with a 2000 watt amp. I run a small club and use a pair of these as the main highs. I would recommend these to anyone looking to do things on the cheap.On the negative side, these do not have great bass response but because I don't use them for their low end it matters little to me. These should not be used as standalone for professional DJ application but I back them up with 5 18" subs...so this is a non issue. As far as sound quality goes, again, this is not the high end of the market and you get what you pay for. Instead of a full range of sound evenly dispersed across the spectrum, each speaker can individually be heard giving spikes in frequency response.tl;dr Great Speakers for the price tag, but don't use professionally as standalone and don't expect super high quality even frequency response. Would I buy again, defiantly.

I bought this for my boys band. (They are AWESOME! by the way) Thought the price was right for their use. They play lots of friend's parties and bought these for the start of the "graduation party tour". First gig - we smelled something burning! The plastic jack cover, in the back, MELTED on the first use. Wiring must be defective, I guess? Not plugging in again for fear of a full blown electrical fire. Have not had for 2 weeks and they turned to trash on the first use. Waiting to hear from the seller as to replacement. Not hopeful.... will update review when more info is available. For the 30 minutes they lasted the sound was really good! Just hoped to get more than a sound check outta them!

I used these speakers for about 30 minutes before it blew out. Sure it was great during that 30 minutes but it was a pain in the ass after that since it's difficult to ship out. I guess you can't expect too much from speakers that cost less than 200$ They didn't even give me a full refund WOULD NOT RECOMMEND.

A very nice speaker .Amazon is the place to go for hard to find items.

Not but could be better

amazing speakers .. if i didnt know better id swear they were Peaveys
