I remember somebody in a UK music magazine saying that they used NS10's as their studio monitors because if they could make their tracks sound good on them, then they would sound good on anything.
On a slightly related note, does anyone have any recommendations for quality headphones for monitoring (ie; not DJ headphones) please ? sImon Pascoe Jernej wrote;
NS-10 are not recommended as only monitors. All the pro studios only use them so that people can hear the mix on the same monitors in every studio, or to simulate lo quality hi-fi speakers... you never see them used as only monitors. They also seam to be useful as a "magnifying glass" for middle frequencies. But in general they sound pretty awful, and you wouldn't want to listen to them for a long time.
