I mix in a non treated room on Event Electronics TR6 monitors. I like the sound of my mixes even they dont ever stack up to the CDs I buy in a store(probably cause of my Mackie board). My mixes usually sound pretty good in my car and on my nice home stereo but why do they sound so terrible on pc speakers?

Here's what I got so far:

The most important thing is not to let the amp start clipping, because then you get all this extra high-frequency energy which is really destructive to voice coils and so forth. Much more important than the max power rating, since an amp rarely gets turned up all the way anyway...

Yes I know I need nearfield monitors. So I am thinking Msp5a's from Yamaha. I have spent soo much money over the last few months on preamps, comps, mics and a new recorder. It is SOOO depressing when I put my mix on any speaker besides the stupid BOSE wave freakin radio It sounds like it was recorded through a 1 inch layer of mud! AGHHH. (y)

I recently took a listen to Wharfedale's Diamond 9 line of speakers for (somewhat) budget-minded audiophiles. They seem to perform just as well (despite having to be powered) as many of the more expensive studio monitors I have seen.

Alright. Im working with a Behringer UB1204-PRO (YEA RIGHT!) mixer right now, a stock sound card, and pair of KRK Rokits. I was wondering on how to set these up so that I can record a track, but as I'm recording, hear the track on the speakers and also hear any previously recorded tracks if there are any.

Need some advice on some budget speakers to use for mastering (not mixing). Is there anything that could be recommended in the 500.00 to 2000.00 range? Audiophile speakers perhaps?

hey guys i need a decent pair of pa speakers...right now i have (4) 21" madison executionerX subs going off of 2 crown xls-602b's...i don't want everything to drowned out with the bass...please recommend me a decent pair of pa's or 4 speakers if needed...I'm just trying to get ideas on stuff that would work...thanks...

Hey everyone,
Bad news is, my beloved pair of Tannoy monitors recently bit the dust.
Good news is, its time for new speakers!

ummmmm.

well the other day i was playing around with a tone generator and my monitors went all funny. the sound was getting through but it was fainter and sounded wirey. perhaps i could be the coil but they are full range and pretty alright speakers. Could anyone please shed some light and as Mr T would say 'pity the fool'.

Thanx

I have a decent set of monitors, JBL lsr25p with a powered sub, that get me an accurate mix, but I am looking for some big speakers for the bands to jam to while listening to the tracks they've recorded. I kind of want to have a farfield monitor system but they're way too expensive, I don't want to have to pay like $5000-10,000 for some farfields.
