[ddots-l] Re: Studio moniters

That's what I would do, take a cd that you're very familiar with, either 
something you've made, or an albut that you know well.  That way, you can 
compare the monitors to what you're used to hearing on your own system.  Keep 
in mind though, everything sounds different in a store, where there's no 
baffling or accoustic treatment, and where therre's a bunch of kids blasting 
away, such as in Guitar center.
Good luck
Kurt

fifty with an eight inch sub that are powered.  anyone have experience with m 
audio monitors.?  Is this  the type of thing where I just need to go to guitar 
center and listen to different kinds of monitors in my price range?

    Dear Jason,

    For that amount of money, you should think about purchasing used on EBay.  

    My personal recommendation are the Tannoy near field monitors.  I have use 
Tannoys for over 25 years in all sizes and their the best sounding for the 
buck.  Even if you can't afford to buy their powered monitors, you should be 
able to get a Samson power amp and a pare of Tannoy PBM 6.5 or 8, for around 
the $400.00 range.

    Take Care,

    Sean A. Cummins
