I actually think that they are great speakers. Not just "great for the money", but honest to god great speakers!

At the last place I worked we put HS-80s next to a pair of Dynaudio BM15's as references to the Dyns in a small control room. I had to take the HS80s down because they sounded too close to the BM15s to be a good reference! I couldn't get over how close these speakers sounded to each other even though the BM15s were over 3 times the cost of the HS80s.

They aren't as bright or deep as some may want, but all my mixes on them transfer well, and I could work on them for a fairly long time (which I couldn't do with the BM15s in that room).

Hope that helps.
