«  Cool thing to hand »

Published on 02/09/13 at 12:31
Before things I'm not pro, just an amateur enthusiast.

character:
XLR, TRS and RCA
(For more details see website builder)


Used in stud home for the prod, arrangement and mix with a couple RME multifaceted.

SOUNDS

In fact the first time I've connected and placed big shock:
of the slurry at the reverbs and a bump around 200Hz to 12dB (thank you my room acoustics)
After correction with the ARC system and a small piece of my treatment I rediscovered rather balanced speakers (after this is not a real acoustic is safe and what is 5 inches so the bass should not ask him too ) are used to mix honest if one takes the trouble to know.
Its good momentum a little surprised at the beginning because of their size, the stereo image is correct without a scalpel either.
It allows investment phase but some problems do not jump to the ears.
Regarding the arrangement I learned a lot over the speakers fesant out all the drops, murmurs, clicks etc ...

on the other hand in disuse are a little tiring.

OVERALL OPINION

I have kept 1 year and a half,
Mackies before I had m-audio studiophiles (CACA) and I recently went on JBL lsr 4326 (yum) are on another level and équippées an acoustic correction but hey it is not comparable given the price difference.

the +
- Good dynamic
- Not too expensive given the services they provide
- Used to get good hand and get used to listening to the monitoring

The -
- A little tiring
- Do not make their true potential once passed through the correction but hey this is somewhat true for all speakers used in home studio.

At today's prices are a better deal than if I had purchased so nice value for money.
Who wants to make the prod maquetter and start mixing at home they are pregnant honest.
