    M-Audio Monitors.

    Yeah Blackwax!

    I heard them in the guitar center when they first came out.
    They sound clean exspecially if you get the subwoofer.
    Very nice sound for the buck.

    good for tracking and final playback, i personally would'nt use them for mixdown.
    bottom line, speakers are instruments and you have to learn how to use them.
    critical monitoring takes time and close study...

    indeed it does but this is a good starting point as i am using regular cheap speakers at present and they are just not ctting it for any stage of the process.
    mixing and mastering is done in a studio still for now

    You're a BABY! haha!

    Your neighbors are going to kill you just with those two monitors.
    They deliver a nice bass response.
