    Nice looking pair of Adam 7 for just over £250 on preloved but no way to hear them,I'm off to check the Yamaha and a few others out shortly. Looks like I can get a brand new pair of the Yamaha with a 4 year no quibble warranty for £238 from a place that stocks most of the major brands so if I'm...

    Lmao,that's a good point.My e-bay list is now a 4 full pages of monitors. There's an Alesis M1 320 for £85 tempting for someone like me with no clue as yet but only the 1 amp in the one speaker then cabled signal over to the other speaker so a bit off-putting. Intimidation XS6 around £250...

    Well said,if I can find a shop within a 90 minute drive where I can compare a few that's what I'll do. I used the name Friday in a browser game I used to play,chose it because it had something to do with norse legend and the like but I'm happy if it's giving you guys a boost. :laughings: Fritag...

    In my local classifieds today there are a pair of Tapco S8 which I believe are Mackie only made under a different name so I may have to go check them out.

    The place in Bristol has the KRK's Rockit's and a set of HS50M's then it goes up to the Adams stuff which I know is out of my reach at present.So no Mackie's to try or Yamaha HS80M's......I think I'll give that a miss and keep on checking the classifieds for a week or two. I've not got too much...

    Thank you,that looks like a useful program. What kind of cable do you use to make that connection though and how is the signal controlled or does the REW program do that? In fact thanks all for your input,I was beginning to feel a bit on the edge of the world not really having anyone to bounce...

    There's a Yamaha HS10W sub as part of the range so I guess all the sockets are there and you can probably dial in to a decent volume and response from one of the cabinets.

    I've got a KEF 30B 200w sub-woofer,Kef Audio Subwoofer 30B 200W Max | eBay if those Yamaha turn out to be bass deficient at times would I be able to hook that sub in? I mean is all this kit fine tuned to only work brand with brand or is there some flexibility? Thanks again.

    I'm in South Wales, UK and I've spent the best part of the day scanning various classified ads to see if there's anything near me that I could go visit but to little purpose,only choice left to me now is to go see the new stuff in a store about 30 miles drive away. I'm very reluctant to part...

    Yes,I'm going to go to a store very soon and hear a few up close and personal ,I've always shied away from buying used kit as you never know how much of a spanking it's had. :)

    Home Studio/Reference Monitors

    All I'm looking for is a way to get the sound into the room, I noticed the difference that the interface made to the quality of what I hear and I guess I'm hoping to be able to keep that quality when I go to monitors. I'd hate to shell out the cash and then be disappointed by a muddy low end or...

    I've read a few folks saying similar things about the differences between and 8'' and under speaker size,I think I'll take a trip to DV 247 tomorrow and check a few out in the flesh. I run a 5.1 home cinema set up here using a Denon AVR and Wharfedale speakers and I very rarely use the sub as I...

    Hello all, My first post so apologies if there's a thread already devoted to this subject, I had a look but didn't really find anything that helped me. I've been using FL Studio for about 6 months now and have a few nice vst's to play around with but I'm a guitar player at heart and recently got...
