Studio Monitors are tools. Any workman needs to be comfortable with their tools and what suits one won't suit another. "Flat" has nothing to do with this...at all. No speaker is "flat" (on or off-axis) outside of an anechoic chamber anyway.
The most important aspect of any tool is "can I use it for a long time without pain/injury/discomfort and produce the results I desire..." There are many other criteria (field servicability, endurance etc) that apply to pro gear. Most people who have spent a long time working with their monitors understand the delta between what they hear when recording and the average experience of the end consumer. However, they will usually sanity check mixes on a variety of equipment anyway, just in case. -- Phil Leigh You want to see the signal path BEFORE it gets onto a CD/vinyl...it ain't what you'd call minimal...SB3+Stontronics PSU - Altmann JISCO/UPCI - TACT RCS 2.2X with Good Vibrations S/W - MF X-DAC V3/X-PSU/X-10 buffer (Audiocomm full mods)- Linn 5103 - Linn Aktiv 5.1 system (6x LK140's, ESPEK/TRIKAN/KATAN/SEIZMIK 10.5), Townsend Supertweeters, Kimber & Chord cables ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Phil Leigh's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=85 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=50711 _______________________________________________ audiophiles mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/audiophiles
