Chas, the mid range is excellent..The single tone control is a minus/plus 12 db at 3k....this is the vocal range, and they designed it to make as clear as you would like....I keep it at unity 12 noon..Chas you are going to like these el cheapo poorly designed monitors..

Chas, I played B4 through a single unit last night...and it sounded big..

I may take my other unit tonight and play in stereo..

I will turn off my 550 watt Yorkvilles and 700 watt Yorkville sub woofer....and carry the 150 people room with just th pair of 8's....
