I laugh at some of these clueless studio freaks who have to have the latest gear all the time. Keep changing their monitors etc, and then wonder why they can`t get a good sound.
Whatever monitors you have (nearfield) you just have to learn em, and the more confortable with them you are, and how the sound you get will be in other circumstances, then the better your mixes get.
man, I mix with Hafter near field monitors on top on a cheap pair of bassy Etex. Really nice - and gives you that club feeling in your house without pissing off the world arouns you :)
