440 Forums _ Monitoring _ 3 Cheap Monitors

Posted by: bufflo Tue 26 Apr 2005, 03:41

I'm looking to rebuild my home setup, what monitors should I get? I'm looking in the range of:

M-Audio BX8
Tapco S8
KRK Rokit RP-8

And yes, I know 1031As are a lot better, but no, they're out of my budget (as are Event 20/20s for example).

Anyone advice would be appreciated!

I'd try to listen CDs between the Tapco and the KRK…

I'm more on the Mackie side personally but I don't know the tapco enough to have an opinion really. KRK are coloured, but some really like them. Try to listen to them in good conditions with music you know.
