    These monitors do not deliver a great amount of detail in the midrange especially in the higher mids

    But dammitall i spent a good hour doing price points on footswitches and shopping for the right one and buying a cable and all that extra jazz all for nothing just because they failed to briefly say footswitch included or even better just include it in the product pictures
