To start out, i have a typical unused bedroom studio with just a small amout of accustic treatment. I used to have krk rp5's and i was getting ok translation. Now i have some tannoy reveals (older models) and it's much better. However, i still don't trust one set of speakers enough. I'm not the most talented person at mixing, and i do the mix as i work thing as well usually, instead of a proper mixdown at the end. I'm happy enough with most of what i do, even without a proper mixdown, but again, i'm not totally confident in my monitors (well, them, my room, and my ears).
So...I'm thinking some sort of secondary monitoring system would help me out. Something just to reference. I'm thinking cheap is not only good for my wallet but good for the purpose as i figure, the better i can get it sounding on poor speakers, without comprimising the sound on good speakers, the better the finished product. Am i on the right track?
I'm just wondering where i should go. Aurotones, boom box, hi fi speakers? I even have some good car speakers that i could throw into some 6x9 boxes (but they arn't made for something the size of my room obviously). Am i even on the right track?
