I’m looking to get a new set of mixing monitors and I’m stuck between Amphion One18 or Genelec 8340 (with GLM).
There are nothing but good reviews and specs out there on the Genelecs! In conjunction with GLM it feels like they would be a really solid choice, compared to most speakers at that price point.
The Amphions bring the problem...
People that like the Amphions really rave about how grey they are, more than I’ve seen people talk about any other speaker if I’m honest; a few mixers I look up to use them also.
I’ve never used a passive pair of monitors, but I imagine them to have a very unrestricted sound. Whatever that means...
The downside is that I’ve seen some people really bash them, saying they are all hype and they aren’t as great as people make out.
The specs from people’s measurements don’t look all that flat either...
I’m hoping someone here has experienced both pairs and can point me in the right direction!
Also, can someone explain what is meant by a natural sounding speaker?
