HS8

Room treatment aside (it is the first answer), in my experience if you’re going to add a sub you’re better off keeping the smaller monitors. My friend and I did a shootout years ago using a pair of Yamaha HS5’s with the HS8S sub, and a pair of HS8’s with the HS8S. I found it much easier to nail the

Sure, I used to use a pair of Mackie HR824 MK1's as my main monitors for years as I knew them very well, they sounded great and have a great low end. I would almost always get the low end right on my first mix but the mid range didn't always translate well to other sources. It took more work then it

From a loudspeaker design and performance standpoint, it is much easier to get a small speaker to tick the boxes (on and off axis performance, woofer/tweeter integration, and etc.) what is hard to achieve with small speakers is the subjective “wow” factor that can really only come from a large displ

I guess mine usually goes into my dropbox immediately, and I play it on my wireless bose ear buds, where I listen to most of my music, while I go to my truck where I’ll put it on in there. I have a pair of old crummy desktop speakers from 20-25 years ago that I stole from my mom when she got rid of

I thought that at first because I have changed headsets since the last wipe, but even on my studio monitors (Yamaha HS8's) the audio is at like 5% what it should be, literally no other program on my PC is having this issue

I have to say I have never been happy or satisfied with any setup that uses midi and virtual sounds. I don't know what it is, I don't know if it's psychological but it just never sounds quite right to me. It sounds fine when I hear recordings and see videos of people playing these setups, but whenev

Vlastným adam audio d3v.. Už ich mám cca 6 mesiacov.. bojoval som a bojoval aby som z nich dostal maximum! Mám skúsenosti s yamaha hs8,m-audio bx5, jbl lsr305 mkii. Keď som došiel do týchto mini monitorov, aj keď na začiatku som nebol nadšený, hrali zle plechovo no to boli začiatky.. Potom som priku

In my room I listen to my music on Yamaha hs8 and the hs8s. In my car I half ass, but correctly, put together some kicker q class 6.5 all 4 doors and 2x12 comp C's bumping. I still find the mix pretty terrible even with all the control I have. Like you said, way too much compression, especially with

Nice. I’m using the Sterlings sideways on adjustable stands. No sub, yet excellent sound. Have been tempted to get Yamaha HS8 many times over the last 4 years but every time I compare the sound/price quotient I can’t justify it.

Speaking only from knowledge and not experience since I don't have the space/privacy to grab myself some nice big monitors, but I've gone down the rabbit hole of "ooo what shall I buy": KRK Rokits, HS8's, JBL 305P's, Adam T5V/T7V's and Kali LP6's seem to be what come up most in this kinda price rang
