Alesis M1 MkII's Or KRK RP-5's?

[thabeatnut]

Just a novice, and Im looking to get my first studio pro monitors....Looking at a $200 and below price range....I was wondering Alesis M1 MKII's or the KRK RP-5? or 6's???? Please let me know...Iam planning on making my decision by this next coming week....Thanks...

Never had the KRKs...but I did have the alesis mon 1s...and found them to be hyped in the bass and better suited as a normal listening speaker...Id pick the KRKs

Id reccomend looking at the Pawn shops...Ive had Tannoys...JBLs and stuck with a pair of Yamaha NS10s...all of which Id bought for less than $200 a pair.

thanx dude, I think I will prob go with the KRK's, are 5's good? or should I save the money and just get the 6's???? Does anyone know of Yamaha NS-635A's??? LOL....I had a deal for a pair, and it was under a 100....Anyway for what I understand they are hard to find...But I dont know much about them...Anyway I might just go with the KRK's....
