Am I dumb for thinking I could place monitors on my desk and also use them to practice piano?

I was in a Guitar Center recently and they hooked up some Behringer 3.5" monitors to test a keyboard that was coming in. I was amazed at how good they sounded. I doubt there is anything special about those particular monitors. I just think I learned that small monitors are much better than I imagine

iPhone 13 - Bandlab - Headphones

I doubt that the Dre’s were flat. I believe Beat would lose sales for recreational consumers. I have been confirming my mixes with AirPod Pros. I was was surprised when the wired AirPods exposed high bass levels after monitoring with Sennheisers. You may like the Air Pod Pros. I do recommend HS3 or

MY CURRENT MIX: Please give constructive criticism!

I recommend that try to kick up about $230.00 and get a pair of the Yamaha HS3 of HS4 ($245.00). Guitar Center current have used for $165.). Don’t let these little speakers fool you. They can get pretty loud if needed. Loudness is not what you need to achieve a good mix especially if your room isn’t

Recomendações de monitores bluetooth (ou não) até R$1.500. (imagem ilustrativa).

Não tem muito oq pensar aqui Depois do lançamento do Edifier MR3 Review aqui, não tem nem oq pensar mesmo. nenhum par abaixo de 2mil reais chega perto desse par de caixinhas. As MR4 são consideravelmente piores por sinal. Só na casa dos 3mil q vc teria acesso a pares de caixas como os IK Multimedia

Can i use a subwoofer with a guitar amplifier?

i think a lot of people are missing that you're using this system for playback, casual music listening. no it's not going to sound great or full range, but yeah i mean you can connect things up and it will all make sound personally tho since it's the holiday season i'd just look around for whatever

Why aren’t studio monitors more prominent if they’re more accurate?

I'm not sure why these $100 plastic boxes should even be mentioned here? I had a pair very briefly at my office desk for the occasional listen, and they had absolutely terrible, jarring mid range. But what is better at $100 new? I genuinely don't know. I replaced them with Yamaha HS3 which are the s

23 been doing for 6 years opinions?

I think my main issue is my lack of a sub, I have Yamaha hs3 which are pretty decent for giving you raw audio but, kinda lack in bass department which makes me end up turning the bass up way to much in the mix, I don't currently have the best headphones for mixing but I was definitely able to touch

Duvidas sobre os monitored de audio Yamaha HS-3

uso as da Yamaha, mas MSP3A. HS é referência, mas ao ouvir falarem da série MSP, decidi tentar e só elogios. as HS3 e 4 usam twisted flare port pelo que vi, logo devem ser muito boas. Sobre voltagem não sei se são bivolt, mas muita atenção sobre.

FINALLY fixed the drums! How does it sound now?

Bro you may not know this. You Are Talented. Don’t prove me wrong if this beat will be a One Wonder. The monitors I like is the Yamaha HS3 & HS4. For the price they are great. Yamaha offers models larger models but I like these two because there small and can travel with me in a computer bag. I have
