Gotta love Sweetwater reviews. Not only do they actually bring some accessible choices that are quality driven, but they also highlight the ACTUAL pro level monitors that are available that many people don't know of. Cheers mitch !

i wish you said the prices for each one so I knew what was in my budget...

I have been using a set of kali in-8’s I got from sweetwater for about 2 months now. Gotta say these things are incredible!!! Definitely worth your time and money. Prior to that I was using a pair of presonus e44’s they were okay. They did the job. My mixes finally sound the same in my room as they do in each and every source I put them through. Kali in-8 DOES NOT LIE!!!!!

Sweetwater has got to be THE best music store ever. 10/10 reviews 10/10 customer service 10/10 selection they are the best in the market, no question about it

This is to inform yall that i got myself a pair of KRK Rokit 5's and i received one of them with a blown tweeter. I looked it up online and saw this is a common problem with KRK products. Some people receive both speakers with blown speakers so they dont realize that it's actually defective. I was just licky enough to receive one that wasnt damaged. I also read that someone had to replace their tweeter 4 times. So do consider this before getting a pair for yourself. Unfortunately for me, my country does not have an official KRK store (I got mine shipped from Amazon) so I cant easily purchase replacement parts without having to pay an extra $30 for shipping every time a tweeter gets blown. Watching this video to look for a better option

@gwsstudios5342 7 месяцев назад

I think a good addition to the video would be a list of abbreviations and their meaning for people who may be at the start of the learning curve and find unfamiliar abbreviations and acronyms somewhat confusing or bewildering, in turn causing them to lose track of what advice and experience you’re offering them.

@puddingstar2340 8 месяцев назад

I’m wondering if you put “PSI Audio” Speakers and “Quested” Speakers, your list of speakers would be perfect.

@amirkazeMY 8 месяцев назад

can do a review for behringer truth 3.5? there are none video reviewing this model. it will helps a lots of people who search for budget speakers. Thanks!

@MadMaxx.1977 Месяц назад

Great video, mate! I bought a pair of the Adam Audio A7V from Sweetwater (Hi Max Dillon!) in 2022. I use them with an SVS SB-3000 subwoofer for my computer audio setup. The A7V was my best audio purchase in well over 10 years. I'm not a music producer or engineer. I just like listening to great music while working from home. The A7V have excellent imaging for gaming, too. I also bought a pair of the iLoud Micro Monitors for my M3 MacBook Air. They're great sounding little speakers that punch way above their weight class.

@johnathonready9347 7 месяцев назад

I just picked up a set of sterling mx5's, and I have it paired with my sterling h224. I wish more youtubers would cover these monitors, and I believe they have been around for about 8 years. My brother has a set of presonus e5's, and ive heard a pair of jbl mk11's. My point being, I paid 79$ a speaker, 220$ for the pair(including speaker cables) and the sound is on par if not more accurate sounding. The bass reproduction sounds immaculate, and the crossover is on point. Whether playing nasty rock, some punchy hip hop, or even some boomy edm, they are punchy and deep sounding. The frequency response is really amazing paired against other monitors at this price point, but you arent gonna hear much more after 20hz. From the little videos ive seen on these monitors, people have praised them. Maybe I need to make a video on these, I just dont have monitors to put them up against, or the right gear to test them properly.

@TokeStorm420 8 месяцев назад

I’ve really been diggin’ the Kali LP-8 monitors that I recently purchased from Sweetwater. Excellent sound! I hope to one day obtain a pair of the Kali IN-8 monitors. Goals!😁🤞

@hectorvegasduque2234 4 месяца назад

I'm split between the ADAM T7V and the KRK GOAUX4. What would you recommend? (I mix metal music)

@KRUSTYskates 5 месяцев назад

which ones for hard rock / modern rock / pop rock?

@LaidbackSounds 8 месяцев назад

Mitch said he has 5 pairs of those in his studio, how many pairs he got in his studio or is it just for marketing ?

@vtkz 8 месяцев назад

The most important point is room acoustics. No ATC or Genelec in the world can fix massive Bass & other Frequency Problems

@gerhardwasowski 7 месяцев назад

Most Important is having a Great/Flawless take... A Good Mixing Engineer can do the Rest 😁

I mix and master on VSX anyway. I need new monitors to save my ears from excessive sweat though lol

@simont3686 7 месяцев назад

Originally was going to buy the MiniMain 12 but I didn't like the color. So I got the Rokit RP4 G5 instead.

@adamattila4708 8 месяцев назад

Hello! I have an Adam A7X speaker. Is it worth changing to Kali LP6 V2 or IN 8V2? Which one sounds nicer, clearer?

@sweetwater 8 месяцев назад

Hi, Adam! Thanks for your interest. It’s a matter of opinion which studio monitors are “best,” of course, but I think most producers and engineers would consider the Adam “A” series to be an upgrade from the Kalis. The “T” series mentioned in this video is a newer, entry-level series from Adam. Out of the options Mitch outlines in the video, I’d be looking at the Neumanns as the next significant step up from what you currenly have with the Adam “A’s.” I hope this helps - feel free to contact me directly with any further questions, and thanks again!

My old, orginal Mackie HR824's are still kickin'. I see that they are still made too.

@jaykay6412 3 месяца назад

I still have a set! they ain't bad. I laughed when I saw that Bon Iver's last record was mixed on them. Joe Barrisi still uses his KRK V6's. use whatever works

@RobertNodine 8 месяцев назад

How many studios this guy got? Every other speaker he says, "I've had these in my studio for a while/use it on a daily basis" lol

@HOLLASOUNDS 7 месяцев назад

Technically just using a set of speakers for 7 days to test them = "Iv had these in my studio for a while"

@ghetto90s75 8 месяцев назад

I have kali audio lp-6 v2, I just enjoy them!💯💥💨

@jopathmusic 8 месяцев назад

Im surprised to not see the new Adam A7X on the list. Any reason why it didnt make the cut?

@LaidbackSounds 8 месяцев назад

cause they don't sell them anymore, it is a7v now

@dragonstone6594 8 месяцев назад

Which are better, the Yamaha HS8 or Tannoy Gold 8?

@FabsterClapster 2 месяца назад

HS8

@davidkellymitchell4747 2 месяца назад

Absolutely! All the other gear is useless unless you can hear what you are doing.

@aleXtreme_ 6 месяцев назад

I would personally never take the HS8 over the Kali IN-8 v2, having them both and compared. Mind anyone explain the reasoning?

@richardpenrose1968 8 месяцев назад

Looking to pick up a pair of new monitors around £2000 at the moment. I’m considering either the Neumann KH120ii or Focal Solo6 ST6

@vtkz 8 месяцев назад

Would choose the 120s. Youve the possibility to upgrade with the KH750 sub later in the neumann line up with their MA1 System. You have DSP & Correction on Board wich is beside Genelec, Trinnov and some else one of the best.

@richardpenrose1968 7 месяцев назад

I had both the Neumann’s and Focals here to try and whilst both are great speakers, I kept the Neumanns. I found the stereo imaging, phantom center and general separation of all the instruments easier to hear. I could also hear things like reverb tales clearer on the Neumanns. I’m Noe’s considering the KH750 sub.

@FSK1138 8 месяцев назад

for the money the JBL 305P MkII + Kali Audio IN-8 V2 are the best buy for a budget studio

So do these plug directly in back of your synthesizer keyboard

@sweetwater 3 месяца назад

Hi, thanks for your interest! If your keyboard has left and right line outputs, you can absolutely connect it directly to a pair of powered studio monitors. Depending on what the rest of your setup looks like, it might make the most sense to go through an interface or mixer first. It depends on what else you are doing and whether you also have other sound sources you might want to hear through the monitors. Hope this helps a bit - feel free to contact me directly with any further questions, and thanks again! Caleb Lowrey, Sweetwater Sales Engineer, (800) 222-4700 ext. 1620, caleb_lowrey@sweetwater.com

@cheggry45 2 месяца назад

The 80 Evos are much better. Like a good class ahead. (They are also a bit more expensive)

@Perfectmusic33 2 месяца назад

Good job reading your script and giving a wonderful PowerPoint presentation (extreme sarcasm) look will I appreciate someone reading the bullet points on a product. As I’ve been in sales for over 20 years I can spot a rehearsed and unrepeatable salesman. Be real on talking to musicians. Talk like one and don’t be a “salesman”.
