ANybody Heard Berhinger Truths 

I saw an add for these monitors, and I am wondering if anyone has A/B them against the Mackie HR24 ------------------ MASS

sorry guy's but i've checked both and i think that both sound bad ... especially the behringer ,but the mackie for the way they sound i think they cost too much.... try to find krk of genelec used somewhere or try to listen at dynaudio bm6a ( which i use in my studio)

Alesis Monitor two, the sleeper of the monitor world! LOL I know knowbody will even look at them cause theres popular product on shelves and getting the hubbub- but you know, I find my mixes translate so well- And, no there not particularly pretty to listen to, but they seem to be accurate. and frankly this sentance has run on quite long enough, thankyou. Today its genelec tomorow its whatnot- ho hum. Will you be my hams? Will you? Hmm?

WestPhillySoulzition, Which Events are you talking about? I know that the "PS" series have lousy bass characteristics, but the 20/20bas are really great. Around $800.00/pair -Mike Pope

Yeah, I'd have to agree with you about the ps series Events. I've had the ps8's for six months now and the bottom just isn't there. I like the midrange on them though...

I have used Monitor Ones, Twos, Event 20/20 and Mackies. I should have started with the Mackies. To my ears they have the most "natural" sound. I am a violinist playing an old, fine instrument and when I playback my solo Bach its not just a fiddle, its MY fiddle. Just my two cents.

> and Yamaha something 10. The latter were > awful. More hit songs, and probably more albums in general, have been mixed on NS-10s than any other nearfield speaker ever. That said, they sound pretty terrible. They have no bass and generally sound lifeless. But the old producer's maxim about NS-10s is true... the few times I have got a mix sounding really good in them, it has sounded fantastic elsewhere. I think so many engineers just got used to they've been a familiar sight in many studios I've seen, if not for mixing, then as mix-checking tools at worst. When picking monitor speakers, it really is about learning what they sound like and what you want to hear from them, then applying that knowledge when mixing with them. Remember, most listeners listen to your music on systems that cost significantly less than your reference monitors; all the detailed beauty of a 2000$ or $20,000 pair of monitor speakers means nothing in consumer x's living room or consumer y's car.
