Question 1

is this the price for the pair?

Accepted Answer

I find it pretty funny that someone else answered "No, but you can buy two of them at twice the price" because I was writing to point out you can ALSO buy two of them at the SAME price, so, in a way, this IS the price for the pair, just not ordered at Amazon. B&H Photo is selling two of these speakers for the current Amazon price of one ($152.10) if you use code PRECYBER.

Question 2

How directional are these?  I want to use them for general music/movies and can't have them on stands at ear level.  will they fill a 10x10 room?

Accepted Answer

The horizontal dispersion of these is incredibly wide, but the vertical dispersion is much narrower - assuming 6' listening distance and the speakers sitting flat, you would start losing top end about 4' above the tweeters. This could be solved with some mopads or similar with an upward tilt though. As for filling a 10' x 10' room with sound, it will, but with nowhere near the bass impact they have in near-field. I use a pair of these for outdoor listening at low-moderate levels, and add 12dB of EQ below 110Hz, with a 30Hz 24dB/octave high pass filter, and they sound like much bigger speakers than they really are, but with the level of EQ applied obviously can't be pushed hard. In a room with careful placement to optimize bottom end, you could probably get away with 3-6dB of boost in the bottom end to get them filling the room. That said, adding the LSR310S would be the best solution for room filling sound with these monitors...

Question 3

hi, is this active or passive? can I plug them directly to the computer or do I need an amplifier to power them? I have an 8 channel passive mixer too

Accepted Answer

I wish one of them were passive and they sold them in pairs. Both are active, meaning 2 power supply.

Question 4

What cables do I need to connect this to my laptop or android phone? Are there cables available that are longer than 10 ft? Thanks!

Accepted Answer

There are no cables included with these monitors. You would need a cable with 2 male 1/4" TS or XLR to a 3.5mm TRS - http://www.amazon.com/Hosa-CMP159-Stereo-Breakout-10-Feet/dp/B005HGM1D6/ref=pd_cp_MI_0   You then would split the two male TS' with one going to each speaker so in essence the 10' cable will become 20' when split. You're going to love these monitors!By the way, the red TS goes to the right channel.
