monitoring

Hi, Im going to buy the KRK10s subwoofer to add to my Samson A8 studio monitors. I want to use XLR to XLR cables but the only ones i can find online are for use with microphones, why is this? Is it because the signal isn't amplified? Could you please recommend what type of cable i should be...

Ok so If i don't have the best room to hear the best acoustics in with some monitors, would studio headphones be the better investment than trying to use good monitors in a crappy acoustical setting? Thanks!

Hi all, I've purchased a pair of the sE Munro's 'Egg' monitors and I'm very happy with their performance. http://www.seelectronics.com/se-munro-egg-150 Sadly they constantly play a noise even with no input at all (no input connections - no AUX, no MAIN (XLR) input). The noise is very low...

I've had Event ASP 8's for prox. 5 years in the same too small control room (prox. 11' w x 13' depth). And despite tons of treatment and analysis I have never been happy. I understand the physics well enough to know that there's only so much one can do. The biggest thing is that there will...

Hi, Need some advice on what would be a good technique to reamp through my studio monitors or even hifi speakers in a live room for that matter. Mostly sampled drums and percussive elements to give them some depth. I've done this in the past with several different mics and generally liked the...

I must let my Genelec 1032 go because I am moving to a much smaller place where I can put my home tracking studio and I found a good deal on those. What is your experience with them ? my best, Luca
