Mix Cube

You're not wrong, although people who use the mono trick with a single Auratone or Avantone are well aware of this and they compensate for it. But it's kind of the opposite of your point. Someone who uses a frequency limited speaker like this is doing it precisely so they don't overly rely on sounds

Well, it's funny but I don't have any acoustic treatment here. Some people think that's crazy, but this also has to serve as a livable home. I have Kali Audio LP-6 monitors and I use Sennheiser HD600 for headphones.... but the secret weapon is the Avantone Mixcube (it reveals all the places in the m

No auratone, but am using avantones--they are extremely helpful to clear up the midrange, as too much congestion sounds awful on them in a way that might only sound mediocre on full-range, ported speakers. My understanding is the Avantones are a bit more hyped than the Auratones, but this works real

I haven’t found too many people who own the model of Avantone Mixcubes that I bought back in ‘09 (I’d love to know how they compare to the OG Auratones). They were the redesigned amp versions (after complaints of noise from the power supply on them) and came with signed frequency charts by Ken Avant

Nice performance - good diction, clear pronunciation, and engaging delivery. Well done. The mixes are letting it down - I'm listening on my phone speaker, as potential clients might, and your voice is being drowned out by the music in most of the corporate demos. The e-learning ones are better (part

would it worth to get 8k speakers? Not without fixing the acoustics of the room. If you get these and your room is a concrete cube you've wasted your money. If it sounds so good on that speaker, who’s gonna able to listen to it? A good monitor is a flat mirrror. If you look at yourself in the mirror

I have a set of powered Avantones. I tried Auratones and think they both do a similar job, and serve a similar purpose. I love em!!

First off, sorry if I came across rudely. I was bothered by the way you stated your opinions as absolutes, but after reading more, I appreciate your thoughts and the time you put into them, even where I disagree. Thanks for continuing the conversation. The "fundamental problem" of mixing on any reas

Good question. I own a pair of Avantone Mixcubes and I've used them stereo, dual-mono, and also single-mono. My favorite way to use a speaker like that is definitely single-mono, and I even got a stereo-to-mono summing box so I have instant mono without having to click "mono" in the DAW. (Well spent

Right now I'm just using my single Avantone mixcube + HD650s (with Sonarworks correction) and they get me about 95% of the way there with all my mixes. Untreated room and sort of temporary living situation so I won't be changing that. My midrange feels great on just these two. I occasionally test in
