    (Solved) Anyone recognise the base these monitors are sitting on?

    Google search for "studio monitor base plate" and "studio monitor isolation base" turned up nothing. They do not look like the usual angled foam, and instead look like metal? Image is from Adam Audio Twitter page. I know the Studio monitors are sitting on some Isoacoustics product, but I am...

    Genelec 8030c + SVS sb1000pro setup

    I intend to switch from an Audiophonics Hypex Ncore NC252MP amp paired with some old speakers to an active system. So after some consideration my preference would be to try out the Genelec 8030c (balanced XLR in). My current gear and which I would like to integrate: Topping E30+L30 (RCA out) as...

    Would You Rather: Soundstage+Phantom Center OR More Accurate Frequency Response?

    Moved studio monitors from corners to ~30% the length of the side walls closer. They are near the sidewalls, per Genelec recommending keeping them closer, or if there is space making sure they are more than 1.1 meters from the wall. this follows the first rule for the side walls, and the second...

    Pioneer DJ - New VM-80 Studio Monitor (VM Series)

    https://www.pioneerdj.com/en/product/monitor-speakers/vm-80/black/overview/ I saw an article on these when they were released a few weeks ago. Mainly what caught my eye was the looks (especially the VM-80 8-inch model), yes I admit looks occasionally play a part in my decision making. Tried to...

    Studio Monitor Calibration

    Hello there, I have a question. I'm going to calibrate my Kali-Audio LP6 in an acoustically treated room. I will use -20 dB rms pink noise. How I imagine this process - I will place SPL-meter on a "sweet-spot", and then calibrate every monitor individually to -83 dB. My audio-interface is...

    Using Topping A90 Pre-out to powered studio monitors?

    I am about to pull the trigger on the Topping A90 (unless there are other alternatives that are as good for less?) I notice there is a pre-amp out in the back with XLR. I currently own and mainly use the Adam T7V Powered studio monitors, what came into mind during this is I read somewhere...

    Open vs. closed vs. studio monitors during recording or editing

    This is for voiceover. I was given advice that while recording it's just as well not to use any headphones whilst recording. True? And for editing/processing/mastering studio monitors are best but if without those, use open-back headphones instead. And that semi-open won't do. Do you all agree?

    Suggestion for Monitors/Speakers

    Hello Everyone, I have recently joined this hobby, it seems my wallet is starting to get mad at me. :) It has been a really tough choice for me to decide which active speakers or monitors to get. Honestly, I am leaning toward active nearfield monitors as they seem a better bang for the buck at...

    JBL M2 Audiolense Digital Crossovers w/Subs

    I first became seriously interested in purchasing the JBL M2 when I was with @amirm at CEDIA 2015. I heard the Harman demo room and was shocked at the sound quality I heard. The Harman demo at CEDIA is like waiting in line for the Pirates of the Caribbean ride at Disney World with my kids...
