Spot on monitors mate. Best budget monitor on the market imo..
thanx. i think this price is excelent for piece of gear like this. i think i will buy it...
what about the Wharfedale 8.2 pro actives?
those are the ones i've got and they rock. and are about 250GBP...
the alesis are a known quantity i suppose and they are very good..
jst my 2p.
will check the Wharfedale... but it looks i'm almost decided.... thanks
Nah, get some KRK Rokits. ;)
Best in their price range. :love:
Doh!!! Double post - Stupid F****** PC double clicking b**tard thing!!!!
Bad workman, tools and all that springs to mind :lol:
Been using the Alesis ones for a year now and they are sweet. But a couple of considerations bout the space you place them in....Quote:

i"ve got them :rambo: thanks for pointing this out neilried.. this is ****in true placing near walls or corners can make some migraine... it's muddy as hell when placed near wall. i had to totally remove the room furniture,.. and it sounds.... sweet, now.. now let's see what i can do with these bombs..... :rambo:
Thats sounds a bit severe!!! Mine are still sitting near the wall but if you block the bottom port on both of them it mutes a real low frequency range which partially compensates the bass overload if your unable to move them about...Quote:

Hope they bring u as much fun as mine have.... :twisted:
i had to do because i had a bad position before... now it"s more comfortable to reference...btw rolled socks work well. i used while night listening... good point.. :twisted: :twisted: :!:
buy !!!
i know five people with these as well as me and they all love them
i say buy them cause i had them for about 5 years. but after buying mackie 824's i now realise that there was a big prob with the m1's making my ears tired easily. if i'd give any advice to using m1's it's to make sure you don't play tooo loud. ii mean REALLY don't do it. i know it's tempting but please please dont. the mix goes all wrong after 10 hours of 120db's hehehe.
best thing is get one of the pressure things from tandy and keep it below a 100db threshold.
serious though, look at the krk's. i've now heard top range krk's in ppl's studios and slightly wish i'd bought them instead of the 824's. mind you i do love my 824s.
:love: :love:
i've got them,,,and :love: :love: them. thanks to anynone's opinion which affected my decision...
the M1s seem quite warm and smooth, maybe that's why it seems comfortable to have them loud, which will lead to tired ears !
im using some fostex PM1s, them seem to sound ok in by my ears, has anyone else used em?
See, what did I tell ya, MK2's aint all that. :neutral:Quote:

the only problems ive had is the bottom end usually being a bit unaccurate.
But for the price id say there a good monitor in there range.
one of my friends has a pair and they sound pritty good. When i bought my own monitors i choose to go with the Tannoy Reveal actives.
ouch :doh:Quote:
