Hello all,
I'm finding it impossible to mix with my headphones, so I'm looking to get my first pair of active monitors to hook to my comp. I've heard good things about the Wharfedale 8.1s (2s?) but my local store doesn't carry them. From what they can get, and what I'm looking for they suggested the "KRK RP5 Rokit". So should I get a pair of the "KRK RP5 Rokit" and if I don't like them I can take them back, or should order a pair of the Wharfedale 8.1s online? Is the Wharfedale a much better monitor?
Couple side questions, how far apart should they be? I pretty much have to have them on my desk, so will a couple feet to 3 feet be enough? And what kind of volume can the likes of what I mentioned above put out? I'm sure they put out enough, I'm just slightly hard of hearing.
Thanks
