    I live in Australia. The prices of all these monitors are outrageous compared to U.S prices. The cheapest are the 3.5" Presonus Eris at $225 AUD. The Adams and Rockets are so expensive they really are not an option for a toerag like me. I ended up buying Presonus 4.5" BT speakers. Just under $400 AUD...whew!!

    In the 3 inch range the presonus are definitely the best. The jbl sound horrible in my opinion. The Mackie is decent, probably better low end, but I've heard a lot of complaints with hissing noise and even not working well after a year or 2 of use.

    @titiland24 Год назад

    hello, the KRK R8 are good but there is a big problem: a constant hissing noise even when the XLR cables are not connected. It's really annoying and incomprehensible. There is nothing you can do, no device can take away this breath. You can reduce the db a bit to -10db but that doesn't fix a problem. It's in the low-end design and components. I was fooled, few people talk about this problem.

  • @MrJohanmessi
    @MrJohanmessi 3 года назад +1

    The yammies are the best, but if u are too sensitive with your ears u better go for the krk cause the cause me ear fatigue, if u have no social life like myself that means u spent a lot of time makin music or hearin music i suppose so u better take care of you ears. yammies are better for mix and master, so if u just plan to use for bout 3 hours go for the yammies, all though krk are great as well i have both of em

      The Yamaha HS5s are the better option for mixing. You are also going to have to get 2 balanced TRS cables. Here are links to what you need:
