I dont have the $$$ for good monitors yet, so I'm working with a pair of headphones for the time being. Anyone have any tips on how to make up for some of what is lost working without them?

Thanx,
The J.

Hey Alexey. Thanks for the sound advice(no pun intended). I've since gotten a pair of Yorkville YSM1Ps and my mixes have improved considerably. I'm still having trouble getting the bass right though. Mixes tend to come out a little bottom weak when I play it on my car stereo(no Hi-Fi). I've set them up as correctly as I know how to: tweeters approximately 3 feet apart forming an equilateral triangle with my head at the apex of one corner, acoustics DIP switches set accordingly. Since I'm still getting familiarized with the new setup, and I'm sure it could use some tweaking, I try to get my mixes' EQ to match that of my favourite artists' mixes on all available playback devices. I live in a rental unit, so acoustic treatment is not a favourable option at the moment. If you have any suggestions that i could try, I'm all ears.

Thanks,
The J.
