LP-UNF

*** Kali Audio*** Just get whichever Kalis u can afford. I just added the LP-UNF pair as smalls and they are ROCKIN. No amp needed.

On Thomann you can get a pair of Kali Audio LP-UNF for just under 300 quid. I do want you to manage your expectations though. These are still budget monitors, without proper stands, in an untreated room, placed unideally. Don't expect anything great. If you want to hear the music in the room, and th

I don’t know if there’s really any more “fun” sounding active/powered speakers in your budget. (My recommendations tend to be accurate or neutral sounding products. Maybe you can EQ the sound (on PC) to your liking, if you don’t like neutral.) These are $249 each (i.e. $498 for a pair) on Amazon: Ka

I.e. they have controls to lower the bass if you place the speakers near one or more boundaries (wall, desktop, corner, etc.). That’s not a feature you are going to find in passive speakers or many powered speake

That’s bit small budget if you want to fill out your whole room. Usually that budget active studio monitors are intended for desktop usage (i.e. about arm’s length away). Like e.g. Kali Audio LP-UNF (EAC review) (Thomann listing). JBL or Adam active studio monitors could be slightly bigger in your b

I am no real expert because I was shopping in a different price bracket. I recently bought the Kali LP-UNF and im really happy with them LP-UNF Possibly better options that I am aware of might be: Neumann KH120 ASR Review Kali IN-8 2nd Wave EAC Review Genelec 83xx (they have lots of similar product

Another issue is headphone mixers are sometimes too conservative with panning. Try this... Build up a strong mono mix with everything centered. Then at the end, pick just a couple or few elements and pan them out wide to the sides. That's all it takes to have a wide sounding mix. Here's a great vide
