I ordered the wharfedale's, along with a 1010LT sound card, based on the many suggestions I have read on the bbs. They came in a couple days ago but my little recording space was in no shape to setup em up........Wendy's sacks surrounding my chair, a seriously overflowing ashtray, multiple half-full paper cups of coke surrounding the pc monitor, little pieces of paper piled up on all sides with half written songs...........all the result of spending the last couple of weeks emerged in the homerecording bbs......should I get these, those, that one, this one........FUCK!!! It's all too much to decipher.
Ok, back on track.......stopped by wally world tonight to pickup one of those 6 ft. fold-up tables for $50 (a little pc desk was just way to damn small for the wharfs and a pc monitor, cleaned up the bunker, setup the wharf's in a triangle formation, got the 1010LT installed within a couple of minutes. I headed straight for one of my favorite tunes, Ryan Adams - Come Pick Me Up, in my mp3 directory. Fuckin A, I can't stop smilin........harp in my face, toms sound from center to right, Ryan's singin right down the middle, right in front of my face...this is too cool. I would say the first thing I noticed is the stereo imaging.....nice. Next thing, the highs are'nt piercing my ears. They actually sound a little subdued.......now that I think about it, nothing is really stickin out, nothing is overly bassy, middy, or trebly. I can hear the mp3 compression during the quiet passages. I have never owned a decent stereo so I never really heard how severe the compression noise is. Even the stereo in my truck is a wally world special. I'm still smilin and about to grab a cd, The Beatles - Abbey Road to see what I can hear..........I'm outta here......just wanted to share my first impressions and thank everyone that suggested these monitors. I'm still smilin.
