Re: Monitors & headset help
It really doesn't matter at such a low price level. You'll have to EQ whatever speakers you get anyway. Just go with a reliable brand. M-Audio Studiophiles or KRK Rokits will be your best bets.

You make me feel so poor. :^(
Rich mother-fucker.
Re: Monitors & headset help
I have my $7000 monitors sitting right next to my $50 monitors. Has nothig to do with being poor. You always start out small. Even if you could afford expensive monitors I wouldn't recommend them to you.
Re: Monitors & headset help
if it's $100-150, right now I would say get a good set of headphones... Sony MDR7506's are a good option, M-Audio makes some decent ones, and AKG does too... then save up a bit till you can get some decent monitors... probably at least $400...
Re: Monitors & headset help
I'm surprised you wouldn't say get some headphones... atleast he can mix and still cancel noise etc... monitors can wait for later... I'd say get sony mdr 7506's... or sennheiser HD 280 Pro's... I have both... I prefer the HD's...

Rub it in my face, why don't you. I'm about to cop a car worth less that Seven. Lol. You have a set of speakers that will shit on MY CAR!
Racist bastard!
Re: Monitors & headset help
the mic and interface you're gettin' are generally considered nicer than mine... my shit ain't too bad, but I am upgradin' at tax time this spring... I do have two sets of headphones, includin' those Sony's I mentioned, and I have an okay-ish set of monitors...
Re: Monitors & headset help
Exactly what Ope said
I remember when I got my M-Audios over the Sonys everyone was like KRIS TOLD YOU NOT TO GET THEM, YOUR A FUCKING FALIURE WASTING MONEY. What do I read a couple months later? Best headphones out in the price range - and Ive also heard theyre just about the flattest. People need to try shit and have an opnion
and my opnion is M-Audios are great for the price. Watch your leaddoesnt break though - $30 to replace ;) cop em though

Word... I didn't even realize he needed headphoes too. Completely missed it. I would definitely get a pair of 7506's before buying a pair of cheap monitors.
