I'll start this off by letting you know that I currently use Yorkville ysm1's, the passive version (I got them long before they made active ones), and yes, they are excellent monitors. This post is in NO way a bash on my wonderful yorkies...
My problem is this: Whenever I do mixes at home and then listen someplace else, I usually find that I mixed too bass heavy and too dark on the top end. I sometimes think that I've become this way because we live in such a sub-woofer world now and I'm used to hearing so much low end whether it's my car or even my computer speakers.
The Question: Would I be best off adding a sub to my current system, or getting a really good pair of nearfields?
At this point, I don't really wanna jack around with 2nd best. I'm looking at Truth Audio TA-1P (or 1A), Dynaudio BM6, KRK V8, and Mackie HR824. In terms of subs, I haven't done my research yet, but I wanted to get thoughts, opinions, and real world answers from you people out there. What would you do? Which kind of set up do you prefer? What gets the best results?
thanks,
