In general, considering you have good-quality speakers and same-quality headphones with a similar sound signature --- what would you prefer to use for monitoring and why?
Most of the time I use headphones or in-ear monitors. Although recently, when I listened to my project through speakers, I noticed that a certain element was too loud in the mix. Even when listening through neutral, high-quality headphones like the AKG K701, that didn't show up. But through my Wharfedale speakers, it did.
I'm not saying speakers are better because I spotted something I didn't spot with headphones. I'm just saying they're different and I'm thinking it could also happen the other way around. Basically, I guess a different medium for monitoring really makes a difference. What is your preference?
