For their size and price, they are excellent monitors/speakers. Even at minimal volume, they are 'loud'. I use them directly in the 3.5mm jack port of my PC, meaning RCA unbalanced, but surely if connected to a quality audio interface, the sound is much superior. Even though I use them unbalanced, I can say the sound is surprisingly clear, and their build feels high-quality.
P.S: I adjusted the EQ based on my Audio-Technica M50x headphones.
