This will probably spring a debate, but what are the best studio reference monitors I can pick up within the $300 (give or take a few dollars) range?

I'm buying next week and your vote will settle it.

I've got a small home studio, using an Aardvark Q10 and Cubase VST.

Thanks guys.

Per pair, active preferably but open to others.

Thanks,

well, at that price the only active monitors I can think of are Delta Studiophiles that just came out and i couldnt even guess if they are worth anything as i havent heard them......

you could probably get a pair of Tannoy ProtoJ's and a small Samson Servo amp for between $300 and $350 total.......

At midiman.com, I am finding the Studiophiles for $400, but it appears that this is each, not per pair. Gidge, what are you seeing that leads you to believe that this is per pair instead of $400 each?
 
It's per pair. Just go to any website that sells them and it'll tell you so. Plus, they'll be about a hundred bucks cheaper.
 
Occasionally Guitar Satan will blow out the Event 20/20 passive monitors @$300/pair.
 
lucid,
this doesnt have to be an expensive hobby...lots of people monitor on regular home stereos and thats perfectly acceptable.....just some people take it to the next level......
 
I picked up a pair of Alesis M1 active monitors for 300.

Some people never want to go past recording farts- they just get better ventilation in the studio.... :)

Oh, No! I can see another "Which microphone is best" Thread.


....Well, I like the ATM Ass Whacker as it produces a good low end rumble. New meaning to mic'ing the "Sound Hole"...
