Hi all,
this is the situation: Uptill now I have been using a simple, cheap, AIWA home stereo system for monitoring. The results were... well... OK, but only by going back and forth between them and two other stereos in my house to check my mixes.
I was at my parent's house a while back, and my dad has a set of Kef Cresta speakers from the mid '70's. He assured me that back in the day they were the best money could buy, and they were especially designed for high-dynamic music, like classical stuff. This makes me think they have a relatively flat frequency response... at least not the 'disco smile' that my current setup has.
Do you guys think it'd be possible to use his old speakers as monitors? Keep in mind that I'm in college and have no money whatsoever to buy any new gear. Let me know what you guys think about these speakers. Any info would be appreciated.
Thanks in advance,
Joepie
