What would be a good monitoring speaker for use in moitoring audio output from my computer (Mac Twin 1.25mhz G4)? I am a video editor that is looking to get better (more accurate) sound reproduction. Most likely I would be interested in nearfield speakers. Do you have to have a special card installed to hook up the speakers to the computer, or just run them through the sound jack in the computer?
Thanks!

How good do you want the audio to be, that is, how much are you willing to spend (usually a strong correlation)? How do you transfer the video sound to your HD? Personally, I would go for a PCI-interface to start with. I know that there are powered nearfields, but how to connect them I do not know. I guess you could plug into them from your soundcard with the wright connections, but that's only a guess. I hook up my card to an old Hi-Fi amp. and use a pair of Soundcraft, Spirit Absolute 2 nearfields that I find good for the price. But anyhow, it is difficult to have any ideas if I do not know how much you are willing to spend.
