New speakers =)

Those yamaha? speakers look sexy! How do you like em soundwise?

^^^ like to know that too... how do the yammis sound?
are they the 50s or the 80s?

i like to buy the 80s because they have a little more low end, but i´m not shure if they will be an overkill for my small room.

peace jo

I was thinkin about gettin the RP6's cause of funds myself. But how do u think they compare to the BX5's. If anybody knows let me know. I want the V6's. Any suggestions.

I pretty much made my decision with no idea of what i wanted. I just went to guitar center with an instrumental CD of my own stuff, i professional cd that had a similar vibe, and a cd i really could disect that i really knew every beat and what it sounded like on various systems. Then i just went through everything in my price range, listening to every pair i could afford and compared some highend stuff i couldn't. I found the m-audios to be a bit harsh (older model though), and fatiguing to listen to. Are they bad, no, lots of people use them. I remember them being a bit more accurate than my krk's also. But i couldn't imagine being in front of them for hours at a time. You don't want to just pick mointers on if they sound "good", you want them to be flat, but you will spend alot of time infront of them. The krk's had the best trade off for me in my pricerange. Plus, they had decent lowend for budget moniters. But, listen for yourself, best way to figure it out.

Dont worry bout that lad, i was experimenting with the angles and it was stable at 50 degrees +, but i didnt want it that steep so i went for 30.
Its got a layer of real soft rubber, almost foam stuff on it, trust, it aint going nowheres.

It's so much more comfortabe to use now.
