Studio monitors question.

Hello :)

I have a question regarding some speakers I have that I use.

I have six, but I use two of those as studio monitors because I can't afford some new speakers yet. I was wondering how capable they are ?

Thank you :)

You can sorta answer the question yourself. How do your mixes translate to other listening environments?
You can mix on virtually anything as long as you understand how well they translate to real world rigs.
That being said, it's also true that you can't mix what you can't hear...so decent monitors are preferable. I suspect these are not great for the purpose...they certainly weren't designed to be. You might be able to mix on them and get results that work. I used to mix on a pair of Sony bookshelf speakers. They were terrible, but I knew what a mix sounded like when I used them. Later, I bought a set of mid-field monitors that were much more accurate. My mixes improved a little bit, but the ease of mixing improved dramatically.
