Hi.

Don't know how relevant this is, but is there a general monitor size depending on room size?

In the link below;

You can see a fairly accurate layout of the room I will be working in.

I plan to work at the desk, with a monitor on the chest, and on the tall cd rack I have. These will each be placed about three feet away from me.

I am currently completely stuck on which size monitors to get, and need to know which will suit my room best, taking into account furniture etc...

I was looking at KRK RP6's, but can only really find reviews on 5' and 8's!!!

The 6's hardly get a look in. If comeone asks whether they should go for the 5 or the 6, people seem to suggest the 5 or the 8 depending on how much bass they require ( the 6 always seems to be disregarded ).

I suppose my questions are ( based on I will be doing trance, dance, house ) - Which size monitor would be best suited to my room? The KRK RP5, RP6 or RP8? I can't really afford the 8, and can only just about afford the 6, but it seems the choice is either RP5 or RP8. I really need to order these tomorrow ( UK ), so as many speedy replies and suggestions appreciated....HELP.

Thanks.
