so you're telling me to just STOP producing/mixing until I have the money...

are you out of your mind?

you don't need to stop just don't do any mastering with the sub set you have now. I think you would be even more disappointed if you bought shtty monitors then you have $0.

too much bass in them for my taste, and when I compared instore to the Tannoy reveal 5 and 6d's they didn't hold a flame.

well I havent bought them yet, I'm going to audition them of course, we'll see what happens.

did you send them back, and get the krk's instead?

I really dont care how they sound, as long as I can get a mix that really translates well.

Engineers are always saying how the yamaha NS10's sounded like sh!t, but many recording studios consider them a must have because of great translation. Richie Hawtin used those if i'm not mistaken.

hmm well my first impression was that they're quite good..
i get good results with them but good is not great

looking forward to get the adam p11's

they just seem to sound too good.. but the mix is not! its a LIE

after awhile...i think youd get accustomed to just about anything you get....

i mean...after awhile youll know how your sh!t should sound in front of your speakers....in order for it to sound good on the dancefloor

of course having good monitors is a great advantage...

just sayin
