        Comments about Roland CM-30 CUBE Active Monitor Speaker:

        We use the CM-30 as sound reinforcement in smaller spaces for microphones, MP3s and laptops. It's a great portable companion for a projector, making a complete presentation set. We also pair them to create a portable sound system which can have discrete left and right channels, if needed. Very versatile, and light weight for 30 watts of output. I recommend them hightly.

          Comments about Roland CM-30 CUBE Active Monitor Speaker:

          The speakers are strong enough to handle light vocals, keyboards and a drum machine/bass mix. I use two units to take advantage of the stereo functionality this allows.
          The portability is great. I have a 130 Watt-Hour battery that can run both units for 2+ hours so I can take them anywhere.
          Its nice having channel-volume and EQ knobs easily accessible on the front of the units. The speakers are very responsive to modest changes in bass/treble settings.
          So far I haven't had to use maximum volume settings - the speakers seem very efficient.
          I would recommend two.

            Lots of input options
            Excellent portability
            Excellent sound from a small unit

            I am using this to provide sound from a DVD/VGA projector for presentations to a small group. Internal speakers don't cut it but this unit does. It provide the added flexability of adding a Mic. and other inputs.
