![]() I kind of have difficulties with the barrier between hifi-speakers and studio-monitors. You can get passive Elac speakers prepared for bi-amping with the same tweeter and woofer for about 400-600,. The Rock MKII is 1.359,- Euros for a single speaker. The Unity Audio "The Rock MKII" uses a common Elac ribbon tweeter and an Elac woofer (not even the one that is used in the most expensive Elac speakers, rather the one used in their middle-class speakers).įor comparison an Elac BS 244.3 with the more expensive 180 mm (7") woofer and a newer version the ribbon tweeter: I don't know these 2.0 speakers, but some producers of very expensive Monitor speakers for studios use Elac woofers and tweeters in their speakers. So check the speaker well, listen to them, they the frequency response and linearity. and if you ask me those MAudio BX5 are not really good speakers.Īll is case by case for audiophile and pro audio speakers. Many Pro Audio Speakers are also crap, hyped and extremely bright. The Yamaha NS10 were first released as a domestic hi-fi speaker many Pro AUDIO speakers came from the audiophile world. MANY mastering rooms use HIFI or audiophile monitors.also many Mixing engineers use HIFI Speakers.ask Joe Barresi for his NHT Pro. Hyped highs and lows wind up being compensated for and you inevitably wind up with a mix lacking highs and lows as you try and get things to sound linear on speakers that are anything but linear.This post does not make any sense. you may be able to make the mix sound OK on those speakers but playing the mix on other systems will reveal the faults they have. Typical Hi Fi speakers aren't sensitive enough to detect the small tweaks you need to make when mixing. I do run several sets of passive monitors too but I mainly use them for checking compatibility. Hyped highs and lows wind up being compensated for and you inevitably wind up with a mix lacking highs and lows as you try and get things to sound linear on speakers that are anything but linear.Ok.Thanks. Hyped highs and lows wind up being compensated for and you inevitably wind up with a mix lacking highs and lows as you try and get things to sound linear on speakers that are anything but linear. I had to shop for the best price but I eventually found a set to fit my budget. I bought a pair of M-Audio BX5 stufdio monitors which are 75W biamped speakers for $250 on sale. ![]() Given those speakers are unpowered you'd need to buy a reference amp for them too which would cost you a couple of hundred more so why even bother. ![]() They are closer to working like headphones in how they provide a direct sound to the ears. Studio monitors are NOT designed to fill a room with sound. The frequency response us ultra flat and are designed to be highly directional and produce a full frequency response to the ears within a few feet. Hi Fi speakers typically have hyped highs and lows which make the speakers sound larger then they actually are and they project the music long distance. You could use them for checking how well a mic translates to a Hi Fi setup but for actually mixing I'd say you'd be wasting your money, big time. They are designed for playback after the music is already mastered.
