"Best full range speaker value out there."
Feature:Having both 1/4" and Speakon is a must these days. Also, being able to link them together is also a must-have.
Quality:
They look real nice new. I have a pair of older 12" Yamaha Clubs that have lost their looks (no these aren't the speakers that blew-up - we won't mention them). If you take care of them the looks should stay good for years.
Value:
I listened to every top-of-the-line speaker at my local Guitar Center and Sam Ash stores and these always sounded as go as any. I think the price is a steal.
Desirability:
I bought them and I could afford the more upscale ones. But why blow money just for a name that only other people in the field respect? My typical client doesn't care if it's JBL, Yamaha or whatever, they just want to hear their song now!
Sound:
Plug 'n play - it's that easy. I'm a mobile DJ doing mostly family parties (weddings, b-days, grad parties, etc.). I had been using smaller speakers in pairs on poles but they kinda blew-up. So I thought, why not get heavy duty speakers where one pair can fill a room. Well these do the job and if you put them on the floor they almost sound like a subwoofer is in them. I often use a Yamaha 512 Mixer/amp and just leave the EQ at the default values and it just sounds right. When on a pole, however, they lose the bass and I add my 18" Behringer subs and a Crown PA amp.
Ease of Use:
HEAVY! - especially when mounted high on a pole. I usually like having my tweeter/horns high above the dance crowd but these make it difficult. To bad they don't come with built-in roadies.
Support:
One of the older speakers blew once years ago and I recall the replacement went smoothly.
Overall:
If you can lift these on a pole they are definitely worth getting. Actually I would like to hear a stack of these - you may not even need subwoofers. I've done one larger gig so far with the 18" Behringers on the floor, next the 15" Yamahas, and then the 12" on top of those. It sounded great and they didn't fall over! Last weekend I did a pool party at an apartment complex and just had the 15"s on the ground and the bass and overall sound was excellent. My wife came to the gig late and said she could hear the speakers loud and clear from 2 blocks away. Weight is the only drawback to these speakers.

"Awesome Speakers! Give them a try!"
Feature:These come with 2 Speakon connectors and 2 1/4 connectors. These speakers have great features.
Quality:
These speakers seems really durable and seems to be very good quality. I'll keep this from being a 10 because I feel Yamaha could have made these speakers more durable. I would have to say they could be easily damaged if not handled with care. Be nice to them then they'll be nice to you.
Value:
I feel these speakers are the best for your money right now. JBL speakers are quality speakers but these have better sound coming out of them, at least what I have heard from experience.
Desirability:
They are very good looking speakers!
Sound:
The sound is very clean out of these speakers. The highs, meds, and lows come out perfectly and I think these speakers are the best for your money.
Ease of Use:
You just Plug and Play! It's that easy!
Support:
Haven't had to use it!
Overall:
I feel these speaker will last quite a long time, maybe longer than I keep singing. These sound great and give you the music you want to hear.

"Buy it."
Feature:Well, we an all agree it does what it does. Its a speaker, and it plays loud noises. I guess the titanium tweeter is a great feature, the highs are super transparent, you really have to hear these to experience it.
Quality:
An absolute tank. I bought these used, and they are still going strong.
Value:
Despite me getting a great deal on these, I would not hesitate to fork out the current price for these. They are loud an precise.
Desirability:
I had heard these at a store demo, and I really wanted them. They have a black carpet finish and look like heavy duty club speakers.
Sound:
The bass is great, and the highs come out nice and clean. The blend also creates great mids. I really have no complaints other than I have heard better before, but these are unbeatable for their price.
Ease of Use:
1/4 connections are fairly universal these days.
Overall:
These are unbeatable for their price. I have listened to other brands (JBL) and these are comparatively equal if not greater, and in most cases cheaper. I highly recommend these to any dj that does small to medium gigs. I would also recommend these to bands, they have incredibly clean crisp sounds that have pure accuracy.
