Flexsys FM12
Had this monitor for about 2 weeks now, and done 5 gigs with it. Run my Axe FX 2 straight into it and it sounds great. Very full rich sound, and very loud for a 1*12. I had read that this monitor can be a bit on the bass heavy side, and i have found this with some of my presets, but a bit of eq tweaking sorts it out for me. It is also larger and heavier than i was expecting but the whole unit feels very solid, even when standing on it mid solo :)
On the whole very pleased with it.

One dead, two working well
We ordered the package deal with three monitors. One was dead on arrival, which is of course impractical. The remaining two work well.
These are practical active monitors, small yet quite powerful. Mechanical quality is OK. The carrying handle is well placed, but a bit flimsy. They are well designed, correctly angled, and unobtrusive on stage. Power handling is good - as others have noted, they are plenty loud enough! We haven't tried the DSP feature. The loudspeaker stand flange is logically placed. Powercon would be good.
The most important part is the sound, of course. These are not stellar, but provide clear enough monitoring for vocalists or guitarists. The sound dispersion is rather good, you can move about a bit and still hear clearly. They are somewhat mid-heavy and lack treble sparkle, and of course you can't expect to push deep bass out of these relatively smal boxes. Spend some time getting to know them, use some EQ, and they will serve you well. Use other monitors if you require lots of bass or if you want more hi-fi sound on stage.

Quality product at reasonable price...
If you're prepared to spend a lot more money, you probably will find other better monitor/fall-back speakers. But we've been delighted with this product. We use two of them as part of an open-mic youth project, and they have been ideal as stage monitors. They are robust, produce decent volume and give good sound quality. They can even be mounted on a stand, but I don't think they'd be powerful enough to be Front of House speakers... maybe they'd be fine in a small venue.
