I've narrowed my search down to these two pairs of powered monitors:
Dynaudio BM5A
Genelec 1029A

I going to be doing some acoustic instrument recording and then mostly midi, loop/sample based electronic music in a medium sized home studio with concrete walls, tile floors, 15ft wood ceilings. I'm pretty psycho about sound quality and know that these 2 brands have very high standards so I'm sure either would be a good choice. however since they are both pretty heavy and I'm not in the states, having them shipped and then returning them isn't an option. I'm hoping someone here will know how these may perform in an environment similar to mine. I've started working on some acoustic panels for the walls but I've still got a long way to go.
Any thoughts? Thanks in advance!

And again: You may think that they are useable in a pro studio environment, but I have NEVER seen them in any of the studios I work in around Europe. Not even as Auratone-replacements. Go figure.


You will have seen something much worse; Yamaha NS10. That is a silly thing, i think. But each one has its system, and I respect everything. I distrust of the established thing. The Genelec is good complement for the Dynaudio. They have all the mud that the Dynaudio they haven't, and the mud also is necessary to have presents. If it had only a monitor, would be the Dynaudio without a doubt, but if it wanted to complement them with other, would do it with Genelec, no with Yamaha.
