8030C

Hifi speakers are generally voiced or designed for distance listening. Get yourself some decent near field monitors especially since you have a high end digital mixer with those excellent Neve transformers to really appreciate this mixer. I have owned a lot of high end rotary mixers including ARS. T

Genelec 8030C with a studio sub and room correction. Might be end game for me.

They are fantastic speakers for a desk at that price point. They're good for a small room but will be a lot better with a subwoofer. They aren't an ideal solution for a home stereo / movie setup. They sound great for their size, but in no way do they transcend it. You can get better sounding bigger

I would guess you will notice a nice improvement although I can't find third party measurements of the Yamaha to confirm one way or the other. You don't say which model of the 8030. The C model is the latest. Things may sound wrong at first, because you are adjusted to the Yamaha 'sound', is it has

Get the largest speaker you can afford. Get the 8030 or 8040 if possible. That being said the ilouds have digital room eq correction built in afaik. The genelecs you mentioned don't have that.

The whole range is perfect for any kind of near field including as DJ monitors they are extremely robust and were made for location playback. They also sound great in lots of d

OK so you have no sound constraints. I would still go for the 8020B otherwise it won’t capture the lower frequencies. Which are the important frequencies in most disco or dance music. Like I said get the Genelec mic stand it space saving and they can be adjusted to standing height. It’s makes all th

I could be all off here — I am not a professional, an expert or anything like that — but no one has mentioned whether you are setting these up as near-field monitors or as room speakers. I’m set up right now with a pair of Genelec 8030c speakers a little more than arm’s length away from where I sit.

Erin Audio Corner recommends to listen 15 degree off-axis. So, if you point the speakers at you (on-axis), and toe them out 15 degrees to remove the diffraction effect typical from coaxial speakers. When I had my LS50 Meta's, I honestly couldn't reliably tell if there was a major difference so I lef
