hey guys mkbhd here and welcome to a high-definition video review of the Ikey audio m808v to professional studio monitors studio monitors are the types of headphones that professional video creators and audio producers actually use to monitor their sound so I suppose you could consider this a pre warning before the video even starts that these speakers are not for everyone but if you're in the range for an extremely high-end video series and actually a first in the mkbhd series of video reviews and I might as well break it to you now these speakers are the first ever to get a 10 out of 10 by my review process so if you're interested stay tuned now visually you can tell that these speakers are pretty appealing you can also tell that they're made of a combination of two things they have an internal amplifier for each studio monitor the bottom part is an 8 inch woofer not a subwoofer but a woofer and the top part is a 1 inch soft dome tweeter and I know a lot of you guys are probably thinking I like these speakers because they're red and black but let me tell you the audio quality that you get from the superior build quality of these monitors is absolutely amazing I have the laptop in between them here so you can get a good size difference that is a 17.3 inch laptop and the monitors themselves are over a foot tall so you're going to have to make sure you have enough room on your desk or possibly your studio setup to have room for these monitors now I've zoomed in at the bottom here and that's to take a look at the 7 inch wide slot that allows for air flow to go under the speakers and out the front as the woofer does actually move a little bit while the bass is pumping now I do actually have to mention one thing although this isn't technically a subwoofer it is an 8 inch driver so it's pretty big and you're going to get a very nice frequency distribution chart and you're pretty much going to have a completely flat response so you won't get an extremely high amount of bass or high amount of highs the tweeter and the woofer are very nicely balanced out so that giant driver isn't going to be a problem and doesn't actually move that much it does have a nice crisp clean bass so to take a closer look at the back of the speakers they're actually not that bad a lot of studio monitors can be complicated to use you have your volume dial - 6 decibels - plus 3 decibels and you also have your high frequency adjustment in case your just not getting enough highs you can turn that up I have mine at zero you also have your balance in XLR cables you'll have to purchase those probably about 8 bucks apiece on Amazon and you have your power cable and your power on and off switch so all in all pretty simple for a nice high-end professional studio monitor so overall yes like I mentioned before this is the first and the one and only product to actually receive a ten out of ten by the mkbhd review standards which is absolutely exceptional as I couldn't find anything wrong with the product itself the one downside could possibly be that with the premium price you're playing paying you're not actually going to get the XLR cables but like I said those are fairly inexpensive online overall make sure you do have them not positioned as I do here but at a 45 degree angle with them both facing you so you do end up in the sweet spot between the two speakers the free spot the sweet spot it is actually pretty big and you'll be able to get absolutely amazing sound out of the Ikey Audio m808v to studio monitors so this is been mkbhd with the video review hope you liked this one and stay tuned for the next week video thanks for watching guys peace you
