Re: Recommend inexpensive monitors and headphones

[Gabbe Nord <gabbe.nord@xxxxxxxxx>]

I'd say that if you're not willing to put more then $100 in you might aswell wait with buying monitors. Sadly with monitors expensive means good, and buying bad/budget monitors for a start will only cost you more if you keep doing what you're doing (since you're gonna want some real monitors).

On the other hand, if you're willing to put more money in, I'm real happy with my Adam A3X monitors. Not sure what they cost a pair though but they're small and thus fairly cheap. For general purposes I'd say take a look at Adam or Genlec, those are two brands that always performs in tests etc.

Hi all,

can you recommend me some inexpensive but good small monitors and headphones for home recording? No high aspirations yet, just for doing various demos on my laptop. Admittedly, I don't know how to define "good" here, I just need them to be perceptibly better than your average desktop speakers and earbuds :) Similarly, I don't really know what "inexpensive" is referring to the above, but as a wild guess, let's start from $100. I prefer plain audio solutions, though will consider USB ones (my Samsung Q70 has two US ports only, so that puts some limitations).
