Does anybody here use the JBL lsr4326 p monitors? or m-audio Projectmix i/o ??

[SlimboyPhatt]

I have recently upgraded my daw to a 2.4ghz quadcore with 2gig of ram.

I am now looking to upgrade my monitors (Behringer Turths)

I find the truths a bit boomy, and was wondering if anyones knows of any reasons not the get the room mode correcting JBL monitors?? (LSR4326P)

Also has anyone got the Projectmix I/O control surface/firewire audio interface??
Does it work well with cubase sx3??


Cheers Guys

I'd avoid any room mode correction DSP speakers mate, they are so hard to get right - i mean you have to set up a mic in the perfect listening position, calibrate and adjust which is ok. if you produce strapped into a steel frame and NEVER turn your head. Id spend your money more wisely - Mackie HR624 Mk2 being the safest bet there is.

project mix should be sound mate!

Thanks for the advice, Would the JBL's not be anygood with the Room Mode Correction turned off??

What price should i expect to pay for the mackie mk2's ??

the 6 inch coned jbl's are £600

I should also point out that this is the largest i want, as im in a smaller room at the moment. I was actually considering the small yamaha HS50m's which are £100 each.

£600 and 6 inch cones - perfect

i was considering the mackies too
and a mate who used to have a pair of them told me to get a pair of krks which he has moved to
i got the rp8's a couple of weeks ago and i am very happy

I`m getting some of the larger room mode correction JBL`s soon.
The room mode is really good, you don`t have to be too accurate as the speakers have a accommodating sweet spot, and the software is really good.

Go for it mate, especially if you can`t afford, or just can`t treat your room correctly.

I`ve demo`d the larger JBL`s and they are fantastico.
