I recomend the KRK rokit 5. You can get a pair for less than $250 on ebay

 

Yep , KRK rokit 5 are studio monitors, but has a tremendous gaming sound.

Im surprised that 1) Linus even bothered with these speakers consider they are half the price of the others hes reviewing and 2) he gave a somewhat negative review on this product.

 

Almost everywhere you go, audiophile websites, other reviewers, youtube vid, whatever...everyone have nothing but praise about these speakers, and here you have Linus trashing these speakeres while comparing it with $500 speakers doesnt seem to do them justice.

I think they deserved a review as they are often recommended, even on this forum.

 

Is it unfair to have them in this line up? I don't think so.  It is stated in the review multiple times that they are a much more budget friendly option and it even states that adding the subwoofer would bring the cost in line and also fills in the low end they appear to lack on their own.

You're saying it's not up to the expectations! But that doesn't mean that they are bad right? I mean, aren't they 'Good' if not 'Really Good'?

Because I've read many positive reviews all across the internet. For a Normal Multimedia use and light music and gaming, aren't they good enough if not the greatest option?

Besides, they are premium built, so I'm guessing the price is justified!
