After a lot of research and reading about various solutions for my digital amp modeller (Fractal), and a lot of mumbo jumbo about "FRFR", amp in the room, etc etc, I concluded that a floor monitor like the EV unit I am reviewing here, would suit my needs.
After receipt, I experienced that it does the job perfectly for my use.
I play in a band that sometimes play in public, so for me it is important that my patches sound good trough a PA system, and not just in from of my computer.
The EV PXM-12MP is capable of playing at high volumes without any clipping or distortion, and with minimal colouring. I could indeed also have used it in the band setting, but there we are using some Behringer montors, and I rather want to keep this unit at home, so I can enjoy it whenever I want.
That being said, the weight and size of this compact and lovely monitor is not bad if you need to haul it around. For being a 12" speaker, I am sure it is difficult to make it much more compact than this.
Overall I have nothing negative to comment on this unit, it does the job perfectly and also has Aux in (with separate volume control) so you can connect your PC and playback music/backing tracks while playing your guitar.
