Thanks for the demo gents! Really appreciate it! Even though these are cheaper monitors you're demoing, from the sounds of the criticism I can understand how they're really great monitors for their size. I'm currently using 'small' Neumanns here (KH120A with KH750 DSP with MA1 alignment) and was disappointed at the physical size when they arrived, but was then pleasantly surprised by the performance after calibrating them. It honestly sounds like there's a wall of sound reaching my monitoring position rather than sound coming from three small individual speakers (6.5" drivers and 'relatively' small 10" sub). It almost sounds like there aren't any speakers in the soundfield, and the phantom centre is pretty tight. Probably not ultra-expensive speaker tight, but still damn good for the cost! These demos of monitors, from professionals like yourselves, are very much appreciated. Thanks so much Warren, James, Mark. Really appreciate it.

@AaronDoerr-kk5iw 2 месяца назад

I have the Mk1 and really like them. I do with the volume knobs were at least detented, or in discrete steps. As they are right now, there's no mechanical way to guarantee you're getting matched output from both speakers. I just try to set both volume knobs at 12 o'Clock and hope for the best. It's not a deal breaker, but seems stepped volume, or at least some calibrated markers would be helpful. Was hoping the Mk2 did this, but oh well. Thanks for the great video!

@TK-yu2pv Месяц назад

I would think that it is likely not advisable to remain standing behind the speaker after pressing the calibration button, since it will almost certainly impact the bass region of the test tone sweep measurement. I would instead move to the listening position, which is where a body would be situated during monitoring, for more accurate measurements. Also, the monitor was literally wobbling side to side when you let go of it at 12:28, due to either the floor not being level or the 4 pins underneath the stand not having been adjusted properly, which would likely affect the reading. I would recommend having one engineer alone, calibrating in the control room (I realize that it was a team unboxing demo). Just saying...

@sammydavej 2 месяца назад

Perhaps a silly question... how is the music removed without messing with your spoken voices?

@PresentDayProduction 2 месяца назад

We use DaVinci Resolve for editing, and the Voice Isolation plugin on there (GPU powered) is INSANELY powerful. I've not found anything it can't do yet. Even with loud music like we were listening to here and in our PLAP PDP Tour in a previous video.

Thanks for this review! I have the first version, very curious how much better it would be.. -> currently I am using old NS1000m Beryllium speakers (because I could not afford the MUM-8 and I cannot immediately sell my Lipinski's, the Yamaha's are better than the first version of these MTMs, especially in detail and dynamics and give a fuller sound) I also have to agree with Warren with the comparison of the Genelec 1031, I had the same thoughts with the first MTMs, I also had 1031s, sold them because I didn't know anything about acoustics and their effects on the sound at the time. The MTMs are also very forgiving when installing, you don't have to do an inch of work to get a nice stereo image. (This was certainly not the case with the Genelec's)

The dialogue was pretty clearly mixed - assuming you mean not being able to hear music, that was a deliberate choice to protect against copyright issues. Plus, playing the music over a RU-vid video, then through your own speakers, would be a very inaccurate way of portraying it, and so you're not really missing out!
