Har har! I guess the point I was trying to make was that the claim that studio monitors are more "accurate" to me is now total bee-ess. If they're ACCURATE, they should all sound alike. I mean the waveform passing through the voice coils is a measurable, definable thing. But they don't, and that's fine. I guess I didn't really expect them to. FWIW, I thought the Yamahas were a little shrill and the Mackies boomy. The KRKs and M-Audios actually sounded kinda similar -- laid back. I preferred them. I'll pick between the two of them. -- jonheal Jon Heal says: Have a nice day! http://www.theheals.org/ ~~~ SB3 (wired - 6.3.1) | Home-brew PC running XP Pro | DENON DRA-395 | PSB Stratus Bronze (2) | Outlaw Audio LFM-2 (1) | DIY Speaker Cables | Dayton Audio Interconnects ------------------------------------------------------------------------ jonheal's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=2133 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=50711 _______________________________________________ audiophiles mailing list audiophiles@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/audiophiles
