What monitors are you rocking and do you rate them?

Focal Alpha 65 Evo. 3 years in and I absolutely love them. The room isn't treated but I know it well, and with a good reference track I get a pretty decent mix.

Compact setups and bright monitoring speakers, bright sound fatigueness

Yamaha HS series are just notorious for having pretty bright and uncomfortable high end. Otherwise they're great for mixing but that does take some getting used to as people tend to make tracks on them that are too dull in the high end when starting out on them. I don't think you're gonna get comfor

Which studio monitors pair best with the RME Babyface Pro FS for House music production and DJing? Looking for warm, punchy low-end instead of an overly clinical sound.

Focal Alpha 65 Evo is a good shout, in my opinion. Focal is pretty 'fun' sounding but you can still make mixes that translate well. Other interesting ones from Focal for you: Focal Alpha Twin Evo (more bass due to dual 6,5 inch drivers). Could be my best pick for your situation. Focal Shape 65: Simi

Are these songs mixed terribly on purpose? Or is it my equipment?

Sounds good on my system (Focal Alpha Evos and a Focal One sub in a treated room), the sub bass is hitting for sure. I like the tape saturation/compression when 808 hits, it's almost created a ducking/sidechain effect on the rest of the mix and gives it a really "claustrophobic" feel which works wel

Which setup? Amp OR audio interface with active monitors

consider Focal Alpha Evo. Focusrite is fine.

KALI IN8 V2 good for music listening and production later on? My last option

Out of your list that you've tested, I'd pick the Focal 65s. They're known to be relatively 'exciting' sounding as far as studio monitors in their price range go. The IN8V2 is different from the rest of this list, as it is the only (and by far the cheapest one you have right now) three-way monitor,

Focal - Alpha EVO or Shape?

I have the older version, not the Evo's. Just Focal Alpha 65. I love em, they've been with me for 5 years from garbage tracks mixed in an untreated room, to now making music that I can sneak in among pro made tracks 😁 I do intend to upgrade to Focal Trio 6 st6 if I ever reach the budget required but

RANE ONE MKII Bluetooth speakers?

You can but there will be a significant delay like most blue tooth unless it has a mini jack cable option however it’s a common issue on most big PA systems due to the long cable runs. It was worse years ago especially if there were no monitors. This is where mixing in headphones or sync has its ben

What subwoofer(s) are you all using? (For mixing)

I'm using a Focal Sub One with a pair of Alpha Evo 65s, very happy with the combo. They blend together seamlessly. I also use ARC room correction, which greatly helped even out the low-end.
