I can't live without my Aural Exciter!  Used with care, there is nothing that makes cymbals 
and vocals come to life like it does without sacrificing head room.

And.....I  mix with NS10m's also.....  I guess I am committing a double crime!  However my 
stuff sounds good anywhere it's played.  Part of the reason for the thin bass was that the 
NS10m's were not on the scene yet and people were mixing with big Altec's, JBL's and such 
and LOUD.  "There was plenty of bass in the room before we took it home but something 
happened...... "

I  got a kick out of the MIX mag testing of nearfield monitors and their non-stop bashing 
of the Yamaha's but then..... they used the NS10's as a reference!  I don't think they even 
realized what they did.  In 85% of the pictures or ads of control rooms in MIX, you could 
always spot a pair of 10m's.

I know I'll get a rant on this but..... if you don't have a pair and you can find a pair, you'd 
better buy them as they ain't making anymore!

P.S. I also listen on a pair of Auratones, some nice Altecs and headphones.
