Anybody try these powered monitors?

The specs look great, however I have never seen or heard any Wharfedale Pro stuff around these parts.

Looking for feedback about performance and reliability. Other choice is Mackie thumps?

What is so great about the specs. This is suppose to be a powered cab but they leave out the max. SPL. The thumps are pretty lame at least on paper. The max spl is 113db long term. For a loud band they may not be loud enough.

They are 300 watts RMS, can drive an estension speaker, have a 5 band EQ and have and SPL>120 and you can get them for about $300 USD.

Nothing comparable for $300 I can see. Just wonder if they are reliable and deliver based on specs.
Feedback and recommendations always appreciated!

Powered Monitors/Recommendations?

OK, so no one knows about these Wharfdales, then what is the best choice for powered monitors at about $300 each?

I have used the Titan 12's in the past and liked them a lot. Probably more reliable than Mackie Thumps which are rebranded Behringers.

Also have good experience with Proel's Flash 12A:
