Re: OT: Monitor speakers

2003-08-25 by Jacob Talkington

Thanks for the reply! Unfortunately, I've pretty much set myself 
to the M-Audio BX5's (thanks, k_eve_l, for pointing me to them!!). 
It's nothing against the Mark II's at all. In fact, for playback, 
the MKII's are pretty much unbeatable for the price. Problem is, 
I've found them to not be as "honest" as I need them to be for sound 
editing. They make even my crappily EQ'd stuff sound decent, which 
just won't hack it in the end. The BX5's however tell it like it is, 
and they're flexible enough to make fantastic playback speakers. 
Thanks for the input, both of you! Definately helped a ton. And, 
when I do some gigging, I'll certainly be thinking about picking up 
a set of MKII's ;)
