Re: Good monitors

2002-05-11 by billydeath2001

I would say stop slacking, and buy the Event 6's. They Kick Butt. Why 
buy something that is not you. If the Events are not you then look 
around, and buy the good sounding and look at spec's, you need near 
field monitors that are the flatest and true sounding.

Good luck and stop slacking....
