Hey guys, I wanted to ask for some advice.
I had my eyes set on a pair of Kali Lp-8 and when I made the order today it turns out the distributor has sold out (I live in Mexico), and won't restock until March. From what I heard this seemed like the best price for quality that I could find. Are there some monitors out there that compete that you guys would recommend? I was so set on those that I don't know where to begin.
I also wanted to invest in a condenser mic that could be used for recording acoustic guitar and vocals at the same time. For high quality live recordings type of deal. I have an SM81 already which I often use to record acoustic guitar, and I'm pretty happy with it (but it's just one, so it's mono) So perhaps the set-up could be the SM81 on the guitar and the other condenser picking of voice AND guitar? But maybe this route would create a lack of control? (because the vocal recording would be mixed with guitar) Any input would be appreciated. I had been looking at the Roswell K47 but I'm not sure how well this could pick up vocals and guitar.
I am aware that micing things separately can be a lot easier to deal with, but I'm a big fan of the way it sounds when you get those big condenser mics to pick up everything at once.
Edit: the distributors do have LP-6s but I've heard the low end is not as present on them. Has anyone compared the two?
