I am trying to setup a basic home recording studio. I have all the basic items already. I have headphones for tracking and mixing but really want to get a pair of studio monitors. The problem I have is that my room is 12 feet by 10 feet and I cannot afford to move my desk two/three feet away from a wall.
What I understand so far is, I should either get front-ported monitors or use attenuation on the speakers to cut some low-freq if they are rear-ported. The more affordable ones I am looking at are all rear-ported and I am wondering if the the low filters really is something that I should fiddle with or just spent more to get front-ported ones.
The ones I am thinking about are the Presonuc Eirs 4.5 (rear port) and Eris 5 which are front ported but almost costs twice as much to buy the pair.
