Those speakers are hi-fi speakers surely?
They are not much better than my B&W 601's
(
http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/B-W...udioHiFi_HiFiSpeakers) I really want something that is small and gives a true reflection of my mixes.
And I really want to hear a difference. I took some of my mixes on a usb stick in to the shop to try out the genelics (I recomend this as a good tip for anyone thinking of buying new speakers) and yes, they sounfded great but not husely different to my ears. The mixes that did sound different were lacking in lower bass frequencies.
I have quite a few reservations about the genelics asside from the cost.
The guy who tells me they are just what I need also told me that if I couldn't afford them I should get a good pair of headphones.
He recomended a pair of beyerdynamic DT100's so I went and bought some.
I have since discovered they are for monitoring and not mixing.
They have almost no bass (exageration) and so consiquently my mixes have become very bass heavy and now they sound awful on my B&W's.
Phil Spector used to mix on the cheapest pair of transister speakers and when asked why he said, this is what people will be listening to music on,
if I can make mixes sound good on these they'll sound good on anything. Imagine what they'll sound like on good speakers.
Those may not of have been his exact words but that, in effect was what he meant.
