alesis

i just copped some alesis m1 monitors at guitar center. before i open them and **** around with them i just wanna ask u guys if this was a good choice. cuz the guy seemed like he new his shit and i was gonna get event or m audio but he said get the alesis over them. so i did. tell me what ur oppinions are before i open the box. cuz they had the events there too. tell me what u guys would choose . thanx alot. peace

De plane boss, De plane... sorry couldn't resist... I heard they are good monitors... one of my peeps has them but I haven't been to his studio to hear how they sound for myself. You should have really brought a cd of stuff you like and heard it in the store before you chose the monitors, it's good to hear monitors before purchasing to make sure they have the sound you want.

lol@ da plane da plan. ur the first person to comment. i heard them but peoples i know are talkin real good stuff about the event tr6's or whatever they are. and i can get them for like the same price at gc. so im stuck on what to do.

anyone.....

The thing about GC is that they gear you towards the sh*t they are not selling and that sounds like what happened.......but the m1 mkII are str8....they are powered right homie???? if so you are str8........I was on the M-audio BX5 but the behringer truths are just that...the truth..........either one is hot!

I heard the TRUTHS Were good, I gotta hear them for myself. Prah always promotes Behringer, he cosigns every post that says something positive about them... I think he works for their marketing department...

no.....i just know by experience except last week when i thought my mixer was acting up when in reality it was an "operator error"...a lot of ppl think that they are bad because you pay a low price for their products...but they use the same equipment that's in your favorite piece of gear and sale it for wholesale....behringer has high end equipment also...but they are still beating out the competition in prices....truths is behringer USED to make bad products but times have changed........i need to be in someone's marketing department (maybe my own).....I am a good marketing person if I can stand behind the product through experience

thanx for the help guys. i ended up picking up the event tr6's instead and IMO they are a little better than the m1 mk2s. hopefully i will be happy in the long run. peace

so you said f*ck the truths?????

i didnt even check them out. but im happy with my purchase. i think i got more than enough for the money.

I listened to the truth's and like them. I just didn't like what I kept hearing about them( Bad Shielding & Catching ablaze). I did like how they sounded though. I copped the TR-8's for the same price as the M1's. I like Berhinger products too. I have the 1604 mixer.

Yo Prah I wasn't getting on your case dog, I was bringing to your attention that you cosign every positive Behringer post... if they hiring you should holla at them though, it'd be dope to visit their site and have a hip hop beat in the background... produced by Prah "REAL TALK" 860... you should make that happen!

i took the tr6's backa nd got the m1's again. i listened to both in my room and at guitar center and the m1's sound deeper and and hold up better. and this was a side by side comparison. wiht volumes all the way up on both monitors. when the m1 was still hittin hard and accurate at high volumes the tr6 started to crack and distort. just some info in case someone else is debating over these 2.

and prah i asked to check the behringer but they didnt have them there.
