studio monitors

2003-01-27 by osthelder <osthelder@netscape.net>

Hi all!

I realize this has been covered in the past, but I wanted some 
subjective input on studio monitors.  I had been cosidering a pair of 
large JBL's (4311's or L55's)to ensure solid bottom end-especially 
when listening to my MOTM!  While saving for the big speakers, I 
refurbished an old pair of AR's with new drivers and crossovers.  I'm 
very pleased with the results and am now considering going with a 
decent subwoofer/amplifier/active crossover.  Before I do, what are 
the pros and cons that the group would share?  Even though the ear 
can't detect direction much below 400Hz, is there a perceived imaging 
problem when you mix (or just listen to your new groovy patch)?  Am I 
just too 70's?  What?

Chub

ps-and why are these hip huggers so tight?
