Review PE MTMs

[snj]

I am thinking of buying a pair of PE MTMs 302-930 of the larger ones. Could you please review them. Thanks.

Like cj said, they're not only perty good, but perty in that gloss black. If you build them, make sure you use the foam sheeting that they come wrapped in to protect the surface. With dust and moving them around, you can end up with some fine scratches. I've built 3 pairs of this kit for friends, who are amazed at the sound quality for the price...and that was before they went on sale! These folks are used to commercial brands, so it was a revelation to them that speakers of that price could sound so clean and smooth, no fatigue. I kept one pair for about 2 weeks and was very happy with the articulate sound. Clean mids and highs. Bass is fairly good for the size of the woofers, but for HT or rap/hip-hop, you might consider a sub. At the current price these are an extreme bargain...you couldn't touch this kind of visual and sound quality for 4-5 times that price. The cabinets are very solid...I've seen speakers with much higher price tags that don't have enclosures as nice as these. Good luck!

I got a pair about a month ago and agree with John. Mine were the cherry finish and are excellent in appearance. Piano grade surfaces and well built inside. I use mine with a pair of 15 inch powered subs xover at 50. The MTMs work well with my modified K-12 tube amp. The word I feel best describe the sound is accurate. At the price I don't think you can beat them.
