I'm looking to upgrade my monitors in my home studio from my Alesis MII passives to something active. I'm considering a pair of Adam A7Xs, but the cheaper A5X look more tempting. Likewise with the Mackie HR824 vs HR624.
My problem is that I probably have quite a large home studio (18' x 12' or so?), and I seem to think - wrongly or rightly - that I'll need a 8" instead of a 6" speaker.
Can anybody give any advice on the relationship between speaker size and room size? Likewise, given that I currently use Alesis MkII passives and my max budget is a pair of Adam A7Xs, any recommendations on (cheaper) alternative monitors?
Thanks!
