my measly pair of maudio monitors taught me a lot about what to listen to in certain speakers. sure, it took a year, but i can definitely hear all those crazy terms like "honk" and "bright" now.
yeah me too, i tried a few different sets of monitors and they all sounded different. I didn't notice a huge,huge difference but it was noticeable.
And BTW some "bookshelfs" were just as good in my opinion, and better built than some PRO STUDIO MONTIORS for $200.
All were in the $300ish range.
I spent 8months trying to decide. It got too deep..WHAT THE SHELLAC IS 10MICRONS THICK INSTEAD OF 11MICRONS!!!! OH NO!!!
Then in the end I bought the ones that were recommended the first week by several others

.
finally i said "(*& this shopping shit" and studying the turd...
and, whatever...blah,blah,blah,blah,blah..doowop doo wop doo wop...
I also bought an RTA and then found out the $5000 ones are better than the $10 ones. But still I used it to setup my sub, to where I can't hardly hear it, but I can see it on the graph which is the way its supposed to be is my understanding.
I don't use outboard EQ's only the EQ switches on the back of my Active "STUDIO" monitors.
Someday I hope to actually record again.
