Original Message 1/12 28-May-01 @ 12:55 PM - Monitor Setup
I'm going to buy my first real monitors and I don't got that much cash to spend. I'm doing mainly industrial/dance music.
Right now I am choosing between Tanoy Reveals and Spirit absolute Zeros. The spirit seems nicer and got deeper bass. But they are not shielded!
And the setup now means my speakers will only be 20cm away from my computer monitor.
So question is... Reveals/Zeros which is best?
If Zeros how far away should they be from my computer monitor?
Thanks Azh.

So there's only one speaker that's gonna be 20cm from the computer monitor. Total space between the monitors will be like 2m.

er... shit... y'know i never looked into sheilded speakers cos i simply cant think of any situation where setting up the studio differently wouldn't remove the problem, it seems a bit weird to limit your speaker selection just cos you insist to put one speaker next to your screen...
however, they are both good speakers... also what about the alesis monitor ones?.. aren't the mk2's sheilded ?

Problem is that I am pretty short of space in my litte productioncave.
I have to have it like this (see included very professional illustration).
Well, worst case I'll just use the speakers as headphones, pressing them against my ears. That's what I call nearfield speakers... kidding.
