I just received and set-up a replacement for these monitors because the initial pair wasn't powering-up. So Sweetwater exchanged them. So this is my second review on these. No issues that I can tell with these. They sound great for near-field speakers. I my Nord piano 5 in a home set-up so these are great. They look great and attach easily to the piano. Dylan at sweetwater was great through the process. I have bought several items from them and this was the first time using has any issues and glad these were resolved to my satisfaction. I have come across complaints on the Nord forum about static and hiss from these but one thing I did was upgrade the cables to Mogami gold and I don't have any unwanted noise even when they are on standby: total silence. I haven't had any issues with my Nord piano which is two years old aside from the triple pedal which broke at the connection to the sustain output earlier this year and since these are pricey I just opted to buy a single Nord sustain pedal.

I am enjoying these speakers so much. They sound true and have enough volume where I am thinking about using them playing out live.

! As most have already said, they sound great and they attach (to my Piano 5) easily. They have surprisingly good bass and a nice "woody" resonance. I've used them as stage monitors and also will try them solo this weekend in a small venue where I will be accompanying a vocalist. In either case, our jazz duo/trio is not very loud, so they do fine. One clarification - this listing says that they come with "2 stereo pairs of TRS cables"; however, they do not. The cable plugs are the TS type. There is no need for TRS cables (i.e., plugs) in this application, which has separate right and left TS input jacks. The monitors and brackets are top-notch and solid; the cables... pretty meh for such an expensive set. You'd think they would be Mogami/Neutrik at this price point. At least the plugs all are the right angle type (except for the power cord!). Okay, so I was able to put in my gripes about the price (like all good nord owners do), but I admit that I'm glad I bought them and would recommend them to anyone in a playing situation like mine (in any home setting, they will be more than adequate). No, I didn't buy the case. My wife found a perfect, small, nicely padded, wheeled cooler, which fits them perfectly and even has an outside pocket for the brackets like the nord version does. She's also making a pair of nice, cuddly, plush covers for them to help preserve their legendary "je ne sais quoi"!

I've been a professional musician for over 45 years . I got the V2s back in September. After a month, I wrote a complimentary review . I thought the were good but not great . I thought they were a little pricey when compared to other speakers . I played my music for listening through them and was not really impressed. In my review I said that Nord CLAIMED they were tuned for Nord piano sounds. I was somewhat skeptical of that claim . After nine months , I must say they have a WONDERFUL sound. I bought some " better" speakers for music listening . I played the Nord through them and they didn't sound as good , for the Nord ,as the V2s. I guess their engineers know what their doing!
They have a very warm , woody sound like a real grand . Aesthetically, they match the grand and look beautiful. They sit in the perfect position for monitoring the piano .
WELL DONE NORD !

For my Nord Stage 3 using the monitors RCA Sub Out does not give my Sub enough signal.
Changes were needed. I routed my A&H board out to inputs on my Yamaha HS8S 150W studio sub and then sub out to the Nord Monitors. Wow huge improvement, lots of bass and headroom for such a small system. My other system is QSC K8.2s with EV12" powered sub for more power. Very happy with both.
