Studio Monitors for Tascam DP-03SD

[Brent Larimore]

Hello Community,

I enjoyed my P-424 for a long time and finally switched to the
Digital DP-03SD and am preparing to begin recording after
a bit of a break.
My question is: what is a great pair of studio monitors that will
work with the RCA jacks on the back?
And if there is a pair that has the RCAs and is also Bluetooth that would
be ideal!
Thanks!

I cannot recommend any from personal experience, but check these out.. not all have bluetooth but many do, as well as RCA and 1/4".

Good hunting. And enjoy! I too have a DP-03SD and it's a great little workhorse. I set it aside when I moved to a DAW (Reaper), but I pull it out occasionally when I get the experimenting bug. Never used monitors with mine - let me know how they do with yours.

Anyone know what brand most of the professional studios in
Nashville use?

Monitors with 1/4" jack inputs will work, just use an RCA to 1/4" TS (tip/sleeve) type cable, such as this Amazon.com: Hosa CPR-103 1/4" TS to RCA Unbalanced Interconnect Cable, 3 Feet: Musical Instruments

Monitors that have a 1/4" jack will likely have a 'balanced' (TRS) input connection, but will work fine with 'unbalanced' (TS) plugged into it.

You hadn't mentioned a budget. These are decent sounding monitors.... JBL 305P MkII 5-inch Powered Studio Monitor | Sweetwater

Spantini,

So far it has worked well with guitars, bass, etc.
But didn't sound so good with my Kurzweill PC-88 keyboard for
some reason. Sounded kind of plastic-ee. And the keyboard sounded
fine through my P-424.

I ma using KRK Rokit 7 G4 and these are good so far!

Nashville studios will use a variety of monitors. This one uses ATC SCM300s which run about $35000 a pair, Genelec 1032s at $5000 a pair, and Yamaha NS10s.



Some have custom made systems, along with Mackie, Tannoys, Dynaudio, Auratone, Focal and others.
