What speakers should i get?

[tom_pez]

Safe, i Listen to all types of electronic music. however i dont produce. im undecided in what speakers to by. monitors or a standard hifi system. im lookin at getting KRK RP5 G2's dunno if i should pay that much though even though i think they do sound proper nice (from experience) even though i dont produce.

[deadly_habit]

get a decent hifi system
i never get why djs or non producers waste cash on studio monitors

[tom_pez]

any point me getting them can anyone recommend another option which would save my me money but not quality of sound?

problem with that is from hearing RP9 KRK's i havent heard a hifi which sounds just as good maybe i just havent had chance what you think? dont want to buy a hifi when it could just sound dull like anyother standard hifi.

You could just not be listening to the right hi fi systems in all honesty. What sort of budget you looking at?

[tom_pez]

yeah your probably right. dunno maybe like 150-300 for a pair, active maybe some Mopads aswell

Get yourself a decent amp, something like a Yamaha A-S500 should be possible with that budget if you shop around. For speakers, Wharfedale Diamond 10s (not the floor standing ones sadly) should also be in your budget.

[tom_pez]

yeah i was lookin at the diamonds just as you replyed. cba with an amp. id like Active speakers. what you think of these http://www.decks.co.uk/products/maudio/ ... hile_AV_30 considering my situation

[wub]

If you're after an all in one solution, and don't want to go with the upgrade factor that having a seperate amp would offer, then they look fit for purpose.

[tom_pez]

proper like these http://uk.yamaha.com/en/products/proaud ... ies/hs50m/

[wub]

I'd go for Yamaha over M-Audio personally

[tom_pez]

thats what i think. They look so nice aswell HS50M's, I should add that i will use whatever speakers i get for mixing aswell. (abit)

[deadly_habit]

shit i'd be getting some nice 3 ways and an amp for starters
wouldn't even be looking at studio monitors or actives period

Already suggested amp and seperates, no dice with OP.

[deadly_habit]

oh well can lead a horse to water...

[tom_pez]

i want some niiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiice active monitors that are suuuper clear no amps n cables just a nice rca, small cabinet monitors and when i play Aphex Twin - Film i can sit back and thing boyy that sounds sick.

[deadly_habit]

studio monitors are meant to have a flat response. they are not meant for enjoyable listening.
just get some computer speakers if you can't be assed

[tom_pez]

Fuck your right. they are gonna be flat. i cant find anything which looks as good which is annoying but i guess that doesnt matter

[tom_pez]

how about if i get say the Yahama's and i just EQ them using software on my laptop give it abit more bass ect. sure that would solve my solution but then we go back to the star arguement that im wasting my money buying speakers which are flat reference anyway :@

That's why you're better off getting an amp and some seperates
