Review: So far so good, massive amount of bang for your buck. - So, I have these hooked up with desertcart special banana plugs, some good clean OFC shielded speaker wire to my RSL ia255.1 with my Modi 3+ and Loki mini + in conjunction with an RSL Speedwoofer 10e, and the sound is awesome. If you have access to an EQ, whether digital or physical, I'd recommend it. They sound good, but being able to adjust it to your ears will always be best. They're decent sized speakers, and play loud enough for my use. Setting them up was quick and easy with the speaker wire and banana plugs. They hold tight, with no perceived wiggle of loss of quality. I live in a 600sq foot studio, and I can hear these while washing dishes in my kitchen, so they're loud enough. You're not going to have a house party with these, but a small get together is not out of the question. I primarily use these for gaming, listening to music and watching TV shows/Movies/YT videos. The range of audio fits all my needs, and they function well. You WILL need an amp/dac with these, so you'll have no ability to control the volume without that. Overall, great speakers, especially for the price. I've spent more on worse.
Review: Good for the price, but pay more and you can get more - I bought these because I'm a little bit of a speaker freak, because the idea of powered speakers intrigued me, and because these were relatively cheap. I was not disappointed. First, let me tell you what these are not, and that's high end audiophile kit. My usual "cheap" system is a 100 watt per channel rotel integrated amp with a PUr iPod dock/dac and Martin Logan lx16 speakers. Not amazing, but a definite step up from a Sony boom box. In my use of these, I plugged them in using an audioquest RCA cable directly to the DAC, and ran Spotify through in iPhone 4. The sound was...not bad actually. They played loud enough to comfortably fill my living room (15x14 feet, 8 foot ceiling). They would play at and a little above comfortable listening levels without noticeable distortion - though at higher levels (think 7/10 on volume) treble began to exhibit a slight harshness and the bass got a little boomy and hollow - you began to hear the harmonics of the enclosure as well as the drivers. I listened to bluegrass, classical guitar, pop rock (well, my wife listened to it...I kind of cringed in the corner), industrial electronica and metal. Surprisingly, sound quality remained pretty constant. They sound slightly better with Crooked Still than with Skinny Puppy, but they didn't shrink from anything I played through them. Obviously with a 4 inch woofer, bass rolls off pretty early, but not as soon as you might think. An RCA sub out would be a welcome addition on these. I'd love to see these come out with more options - perhaps larger woofers and a built in DAC, but with an eye for budget so that folks who don't want to spend $500 plus for some of the competition could have some other options to consider. So, all in all these paired with a good DAC are head and shoulders above any of the other "computer speaker" options I've heard - but only for the price I paid for them. These retail for what, $200? I paid a bit less than that buying them refurbished. The price I paid vs the quality I got make them easily the best deal on the market. At full price, well...it's a hard call. These are a well put together speaker, but moving up $50, $100, $200, and you start getting into some speakers with more to offer. My advice to the potential buyer is to definitely pick these up if you find them refurbished, and if not, to definitely consider them, as they are a well built pleasant sounding speaker with a lot going for them. I will be finding plenty of uses (hook them to a cheap projector and have movie night for the kids in the backyard...really awesome computer speakers...always a good reason to have more speakers around the house) for these in the future, and may consider buying others - especially if they offer things like the DAC, sub out, and larger driver options.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Just to verify, this product comes as a PAIR, correct? As in, if I make one purchase, I'll receive two speakers? Just want to make sure.**
A: I gotta say something here. This page is linked to a center channel speaker (with 3 SPEAKERS AND A CROSSOVER). The bookshelf speakers at the left are NOT the right ones to be linked to this ad. As for the "single speaker" nonsense, even a base unit 5.1 system uses a center channel speaker for accurate reproduction of dialog. Placed as close as you can to the front center spot in front of your tv can yield clear and precise sound for TV and movies.

Micca MB42X-C Center Channel Speaker
Note: MB42X-C speakers are not self-powered and require an amplifier or receiver to play music
Enjoy amazing quality movie soundtrack and music in your home with the compact and budget friendly Micca MB42X-C center channel speaker. Handsomely styled with classic contours and updated design cues, the MB42X-C is easy to place and blends into any room or decor. Its enhanced tonal balance and clarity makes it perfect for use in a home theater, anchoring important dialogue and action to the screen for a cinema-like experience.

**Q: Is there a noticeable difference between the 42 and 42X ?**
A: I originally bought the mb42s and ordered/installed the $30 crossover kit from Micca.  While I could not directly compare the two, I did have the originals "unaltered" long enough to notice an improvement in sound, especially at louder levels.  Also I felt the mb42s lacked a little high end.  After installing the upgrade, the highs were much better.  There is a website that gives an equalizer adjustment that really makes them shine.  basically, you knock down the 1K frequency by 4/5 db, and boost the 6K about the same a tad less.  Definitely worth the $20 difference!

**Q: When will these become available again? Or are they discontinued?**
A: The message changed from "we don't know when or if these will be available" to "sign up when these become available", so I am taking that as a good sign.It appears that these have been a sales success, so I would think that they will be back. I do hope they drop the price back down though. They recently raised the price to $99 a pair. They are worth that, but they are no longer a great deal at that price.

**Q: Anyone have experience using these as front speakers in a surround sound setup? Would they be loud enough with a Yamaha receiver for music and movies?**
A: I'm using them as front stereo speakers with a subwoofer in my living room. I use them for stereo music and we use them when watching movies. They should be plenty loud. You'll have to find the right balance with them if you are using a center channel. Otherwise they will work fine. I have these and an 8 inch Yamaha subwoofer and it fills the room with sound during music and movies.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Small speakers with big sound
*by A***T on March 2, 2014*

This "no-name" (maybe I should say little-known) company has impressed me with the MB42X speaker system. I am powering them with the Topping TP22 mini amp, rated at 30 watts per channel. It seems to be a good combination of clean power that can get the speakers surprisingly loud for their size. They also stay quite clear at "loud" volumes- of course I can get them to distort if I turn everything up beyond reasonable levels in my sound card settings. I am using the speakers in a 2.1 desktop system, primarily for music, some movies and Netflix, as well as a small amount of gaming. The complete setup consists of a HP desktop with the ASUS Xonar DX sound card installed, Mediabridge 3.5mm to RCA cable connecting the sound card to the TP22 amp, cheapo speaker wire (will be replaced soon) to the MB42X, and finally the Polk PSW10 powered subwoofer- which has now become the weakest link of my system, as well as the crappy speaker wire. The little Miccas will almost completely drown out the PSW10 when I play them loud, even with bass heavy music. Now keep in mind the small 4" woofers will not go down to sub-bass frequencies, but they play what they can hit with authority and clarity. I am listening to them now and should mention even though I have not played them a full 20 hours or whatever to fully "loosen" the drivers, I am hearing sounds in my music I was not hearing before with a big name branded "studio monitor" called the AV40. I suspect the amp has something to do with that, as the drivers of the AV40 seem of decent quality, but they must use cheaper electronics to keep prices down. The MB42X/TP22 combo is far and away better than the AV40, in my opinion, and with sale prices can be had for not much more than the AV40 and is still cheaper than the next level of powered monitors or bookshelf speakers. The MB42X seem to have a fuller sound across their range, sound just fine and detailed at lower volumes and really start to shine when you give them some power. I like the magnetic grills- makes it easy to remove them and watch the little woofers work (they really like to move when turned up) and the speaker looks very clean with and without the grill as there are no holes on the face of the speaker, but really I don't think one should worry too much about how a speaker looks for obvious reasons. I was trying to keep this short, but if I am taking the time to write a review, I feel it's worth offering all of my feedback to help people make their decision. The build quality seems good, but they are quite a bit lighter than I expected when setting them up and that made me skeptical of their performance ability...until I turned them up. Again, not of much concern but worth mentioning. the 42X is lighter than the satellite AV40 speaker- the one with no amp inside. I think the cabinets are not as thick material. People have talked about box resonance, standing waves, this, that and the other technical terms the hard core "audiophiles" like to throw around. I would not label myself as such, but do appreciate a high quality sound system and this should be more than satisfactory for anyone looking for good sound quality at a reasonable price. Micca got this speaker right and the price is why they get 5 stars from me. I would probably give the speaker itself 4 stars as a 5 star speaker will have even more range. Again, you are looking at $200 or more for just the speakers. This setup was less than $200 for everything except speaker wire since I had some laying around. They need a more powerful sub. I have my eye on the Dayton Sub-1000, which effectively doubles the power of the PSW10, and should be good for a mix of music and movies. The Sub-1200 looks nice as well, but I think the 10" should be a good match for my setup and I don't need super loud room shaking bass, just enough to fill out the bottom end and hit hard in movies or bass heavy music. That comes out to almost $300 even for a very nice sounding desktop or bedroom system- both in my case. Some have said the speaker could even be used as a studio monitor, which I do not doubt. Finally, everything I have mentioned here was purchased through Amazon and the service has always been great. Prices are always competitive and shipping is usually very fast, even the free shipping. This order (speakers, amp and cable) was an exception due to a delay with Amazon and my bank processing the payment- these things happen. One phone call to Amazon got that cleared up and they sent my package over night, which was not requested by me at any time. Mostly, I was just calling to make sure everything was in stock, etc. because the order had not shipped for a couple days after placing it, which doesn't happen often in my experience here. They explained everything to me, then said it would be delivered the next day- still free shipping. Thanks again Amazon for the service and offering so much helpful information through the website itself and allowing us to post our feedback. 5 star service rating for the Amazon team!
