Yes, proper sound. Have used Dolphin for a number of things over the years, both hardware and software. Highly recommended.

Used them, rate them, but you can find cheaper if you shop around for most things.

My english teacher gave me a weird look when I mentioned that as the musical instrument I played. Like the wtf stare. I had to give her the 'wiki wiki' dj motion to confirm what i meant.

i've actually read a few threads with issues with dolphin (not on here) so i've always got my stuff with dv247 who will pricematch, seems everyone else on here has been fine with them though.

I had a bad experience with dv247,my motu soundcard was faulty and they had it back twice and bench tested it and
couldn't replicate the problem.They eventually swapped it out but i swear they sent me a display model because it just did not look new.Dolphin music on the other hand i have done a lot of buying with and never had problems,always on the money for me,also turnkey are pretty good.Turnkey price matched dolphin music for my krk's and added some speaker stands(which were shit)and cable's so they get a thumbs up to.

yeah i guess every company has off days, initially i'd put an order in with dv247 for the 8 inch samson monitors with the ribbon tweeters but they'd been discontinued so i got a pretty good discount on some krk rp8s with stands.

sorry this is a bit late but whybuynew is legit, i bought my monitors from there and when they turned up one of them was kinda hissing, i rang them and told them, they sent someone to pick them up and returned them to me next day, free of charge! i was a bit apprehensive at first too but they are good, trust

Well done on buying your DAW! Have fun it is a lot more fun to actually own your DAW I find, and makes it a hell of a lot more interesting to see what each single button actually does, even if it isn't relevant to the track you are making.

Bit late but i'd like to recommend inta audio for anyone else who reads this. i got my krk rp6's for £330 (same as anywhere else online) with auralex acoustic foam and cables free. PLUS 10% DISCOUNT. I also got a free mic with my saffire 6. they do a £10 off any order over £100 deal now the 10%'s finished if you use the code '10years'. just thought i'd share the love cos my stuff arrived today (I ordered two days ago), and I'm bloody happy

im guessing you've purchased already, but for those just reading the thread or who have found it in the search function
dolphinmusic.co.uk gets another vote from me
ive use it on a personal level and for work & as someone said before, the tech team you can talk to by phone, know their onions and are real helpful.

Another thumbs up for them - again echoing the help they give on the phone.
At least three times I've called them asking for advice, then gone and done my own research and found that their immediate answer was solid.
