Alesis introduces the M1 Active 320 USB speaker system, which combines premium USB audio playback and high-quality USB audio input for computers.

M1 Active 320 USB speakers bring Alesis speaker performance and easy USB connectivity to the computer desktop; the speakers enable users to play audio from and record audio to a computer by simply plugging the included USB cable into a computer. No special drivers are required.

The speakers are not only substantial audio monitors, but they also serve as a convenient audio interface. By connecting professional audio products directly into the line input jacks on the M1 Active 320 USB, keyboards, mic pre's, guitar effects, DJ Mixers and other audio components such as CD and tape players can easily be recorded.

Full range, superb sound quality ensures accurate audio reproduction to check mixes. A Bass Boost switch helps emphasize bass frequencies, enabling users to tailor the speaker's response to a wide variety of listening environments. The lightweight and portable design means the M1 Active 320 USB system can be placed into a handy carrying case and taken on the road.
