Very good for HTPC but not recommended for home studios,
If you need a inexpensive home theater PC speakers MS40 are fun. Their mids and highs are sweet e the mid-bass line is satisfatory. Those ones who intend to listen to MP3 and watch movies on PCs will enjoy MS40.
On other hand, if you need a reference monitor for recordings, forget it! No way! MS40 is quite uneven, lacks resolution and clarity on mid band and its treble has absolutely no resolution. Bass lines isn’t good enough also, because of its lack of control and velocity (they are boomy speakers). Their quite apparent boxiness also let MS40 down.
Looking for a entry level reference monitor? I would recommend to spend a bit more and get KRK Rockit RP5G2 or a M-Audio BX5A. They cost twice as much, but sound 4 times better. You can’t afford any of them as your budget is short, so go with M-Audio AV30 or AV40. In my opinion, even the chep M-Audio AV20 offers better mid and treble resolution than behringer MS40.

|Big Sound Little Speaker,
These Behringer MS40′s are rockin’ my apartment big time. I have had plenty of speakers in my day, but these are the best combination of size and sound. I still find myself thinking “where’s the sub at” on occasion when enjoying these speakers, because the low end sounds beautiful. I remember when you would have had to of placed tower speakers sporting 10″ cones or had a sub cabinet to get this sound. Best part is that the mid range and highs sound GREAT too!! With about 8-10 feet of seperation between the speakers the imaging is right on. When I watch movies with them you get what they intended to mix. Dialogue is centered, cars sweep across the room, and explosions rock the walls. I listen to quite a bit of music and enjoy various styles. It really doesn’t matter what the genre because the end result is always excellent. My only advice would be to make sure that you are not to close to the speaker when listening. I originally place them about 3′ from each end of my couch and realized that the “sweet spot” was my kitchen…I switched their placement to the opposite end of the room and have sounded great ever since. Seriously well balanced speakers…not like they are the best, but I have not found any better for the price. Something else that makes them awesome is the input section. I have my computer running through one input, my tv/dvd through another and sometimes friends will drop by and we plug their ipod straight into another input…two volume controls allow me to adjust the computer and tv/dvd seperatly. These speakers are SWEET for the Price!!!

|Review of Behringer MS 40 Studio Monitors,
I recently purchased a Samsung 58″ ultra-slim plasma TV for my main viewing area. It took the place of a 46″ Sony XBR Bravia, which by today’s standards would not be considered “slim.” My viewing tastes encompass film, and live concerts recorded to DVD. The audio system that I originally purchased in conjunction with the Sony Bravia consists of high-end Klipsch speakers. Because I was happy with this system, I have continued to use it in conjunction with the Samsung plasma. For those who own an ultra-slim plasma, you know that the audio is just “okay,” but certainly not commensurate with the size of the picture. When I am not watching a movie or a concert, I usually do not run my surround sound system. I am therefore limited to audio contained in the TV itself.
Enter the Behringer MS40. By profession, I am a video editor, and already had hands-on experience with the very high quality of Behringer audio mixers and audio monitors. So I decided after a little research to purchase a couple of MS40′s and use them to play back the audio from my Samsung plasma TV when I was just watching regular TV programming. The quality, depth, and rich sound from these monitors is absolutely superb.I am extremely pleased with my decision.
From time to time, when I must meet with a video client at his location, I may need to bring a small
TV monitor to show my work. Because the audio part of the presentation is also very important, I will bring the MS40′s for playback.
If you are considering these monitors for a computer,to play back your regular TV programming, or for a small group presentation..don’t hesitate. these are high quality…As you unpack them, you will immediately be impressed by the quality of the construction..and after you hook them up you will be blown-away by the sound.
