Winter NAMM 2012 News
I've been using the Bx8’s studio monitors for about a year and they have become one of my favorite pairs of studio monitors for not only mixing, but for general listening and tracking as well. I find that I get a true sound from these monitors, without any coloration. This makes me happy when I mix because I know that when I play the mix over m...
I've been using the Yamaha MSP5 studio monitors for about three years. I've used them both for tracking and listening and for mixing. They work great in all listening applications because they provide not only an accurate portrayal of the sound you are playing but because they cover the whole spectrum of frequencies. Yamaha has a reputation for ...
I've been using the Koss in ear headphones for about 2 years and a half for listening with my iPod and I've found them to be a nice set of headphones. I got them for a great price online, so I decided to try them out and see if they were worth having. While I'm not 100% sold on the sound quality of the Koss headphones because I have never heard ...
Home studio owners should definitely take a look at the KRK 7000B’s and the other monitors that KRK has to offer because they are some of the best bang for your buck that you’ll find. These will take you a long way in your home studio but they aren’t going to be suitable for professionals unless you’re using them as your B set of monitors. Lik...
The Sony MDR-XD100's are a set of solid studio headphones, perfect for when you need a few extra pairs around your studio but don't feel the need to spend too much money on them. This is pretty much the cheapest set of Sony headphones you'll find, and honestly they aren't all that bad. Of course they feel extremely cheap and aren't the most comf...
I have been using these monitors for 4 months now. I was for some time using a pair of Behringer Truth 6" powered monitors. When I got these I noticed how less fatigued my ears were after an hour. In fact I could mix on these for hours, 4-5 someday straight (with bathroom breaks of course) and not be ringing or had mud in my...
These were my very 1st pair of studio monitors took me weeks to pick the right ones. I think I got lucky because I didn't know much about them (monitors). They have served me well over the years. What I loved most about them was the fact that they were very easy to setup, they sound clean and as I've stated before mixed can be trusted in them. I...
I've been using the Roland DS 50A studio monitors for about a year and they have become one of my favorite pairs of studio monitors for not only mixing, but for general listening and tracking as well. I find that I get a true sound from these monitors, without any coloration. This makes me happy when I mix because I know that when I play the mix...
I've had my pair of JBL Pro Control 1 for about three years and I'm really glad I bought a pair of these. They are great to use in tandem with a fuller set of speakers so that you could A/B a mix between them. If you can find a used pair of these, they aren't all that expensive, which make them a good deal. The JBL Pro Control 1 seem to be in a ...
I've had my Alesis RA 150 for about seven or eight years. It came into my hands in an unlikely fashion and I have been using it in a variety of ways since I got it. It is a compact dual channel power amplifier, good for power monitors that may be un powered, or for using it as an head for a bass or guitar cabinet. It has both XLR and 1/4 inch ou...
