I will be moving/upgrading my setup shortly, and I have about $500 in the budget for monitoring. What would you guys recommend???
I will be making rap/pop/r&B, and I will be working in a square, UNTREATED room.
My goal is to get as good of mixes as I can (obviously) with this budget/room. I say this just to say that I am not one of these people dumb enough to think my beats will sound like Dr Dre tracks on the latest Eminem album for $500.
I have heard a lot of talk from certain members on this site about going with commercial bookshelf speakers instead of "monitors" in this price range. What I've read about this way of thinking seems to make sense to me, but if this is what you would recommend, what specific items (speakers/amp, etc.) would you go with?
Thanks in advance for any advice!
