Desktop speakers for mastering recordings on computer
« on: July 16, 2013, 08:30:17 AM »
Hi there!

Considering getting new speakers/monitors that can be used with my iMac computer. Would really like some "top of the line" speakers that can provide me with the correct sound I'm getting recorded.

My current speakers are these:http://ecx.images-amazon.com/images/I/41bRGd4fS0L.jpg

Any tips in the pricerange of $100-$300 ?

a set of KRK rocket 5 are perfect for what you need.  They are at the 300$ mark but worth every penny.  probably the best bang for the buck speaker out there next to the rocket 6's which are 400.

I use KRK Rockit 5's and would recommend them.

+1 on the Rokit 5s - been using them for the past couple years and love them. 

For whatever you wind up getting, I would recommend putting them on stands so they're off your desk with the tweeters up at ear level - this will really improve imaging and balance, and also minimize early reflections off of your desk.  Placement is probably just as important as what speakers you're running.  That, and the Rockit's are bigger than they seem in pictures, so you'd wind up with no desk space left. 

Mine are on Aluralex MoPads: http://www.sweetwater.com/store/detail/MoPAD
which sit on these stands: http://www.sweetwater.com/store/detail/MonitorStd

I seem to remember getting the whole thing as a big sale package with the Rockit 5s for $350 total.  Not finding that deal at the moment, but you could put out the call in the Yard Sale for anyone selling monitor stands for cheap.

I would stay away from the cheaper monitors made by Alesis and M-Audio.  The ones I used had very noisy electronics.  Not so with the KRKs.  ;D

Are we talking about these: http://www.4sound.se/itm_img/big_216398.jpg

If so, they´re about $400 for a pair over here.

Can they just be plugged into the iMac?

The only down is it's range: 53Hz-20.000Hz. My mics are 40Hz-20.000... Even lower with the omni's.

^ Yeah, that's them.  That's unfortunate they're more expensive over there. 

They have XLR, 1/4", and RCA inputs so you can plug anything into them.  From your iMac you would use a Y-cable to go from 1/8" stereo mini to dual RCA plugs.  Keep in mind that these kind of speakers do not have a volume control (at least not an easily accessibly one) - you would control the volume through your iMac or with an external recording interface (for example, the Focusrite you see in my sig).

I recommend the Adam's also, and Sonic Sense. They are over the $300 mark though. They are $250-$400 each. They are made in Germany, so maybe they are cheaper over there.

I would highly recommend a Blue Sky 2.1 system.
Like this: http://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/655020-REG/Blue_Sky_International_EXO2_eXo2_Active_2_1_Desktop.html

Maybe a touch above your $300 budget at $499.  Many commercially released films and recordings are mastered on similar Blue Sky 2.1 & 5.1 systems.

I use the above paired with an Audioengine D1 USB DAC and get amazing sound for a compact desktop system.

Here's another vote for Blue Sky! If you can't afford $1,000 monitors, Blue Sky are my choice. They aren't ported, and out-perform cheaper ported designs.

Running Adam A7X's here but they're way out of your price range.

Also echoing what others have said about correct placement and isolation. I'll add ... correct some of the larger acoustic problems in your room!

Check out the JBL LSR range too.  They have some recent models that fit that budget.

I've never heard the Blue Sky gear, but would like too.  I've heard good word on them from respected sources and like their design philosophy of non-ported satellites + sub.

Hi, this is semi-related as I, too, want to upgrade my desktop speakers.  I am looking at the KRK Rokit's, JBL LSR305's, or JBL LSR308's.  Any thoughts or advice on an internal soundcard versus an external DAC like the FiiO E10?  I am just looking for stereo output.

If I understand the technology correctly, the FiiO E10 would, essentially, act as my soundcard.  Audio data would be sent digitally to the FiiO, which would convert it to analog, then output it to my speakers, right?

Any input is greatly appreciated.

Sorry, if I hijacked the thread. :)

^^  Correct, the E10 would work as an outboard soundcard for your computer: computer > USB > E10 (D/A  conversion) > analog out > headphones/speakers.  It would, in fact, make things a little easier for you as an internal soundcard for your computer would require you to open up your machine, plug in the soundcard, load drivers, etc, whereas the E10 is simply plug and play.  I've been using a FiiO E17 (essentially an E10 with internal battery and a few other bells & whistles so you can use it as a portable headphone amp) for a few years now in that capacity with my notebook computer and I've been very happy with its sound quality.  Great little piece of gear and I believe the E17 and E10 both use the same Wolfson DAC chip. 

Please keep us posted on what you wind up going with.

Ok, that's killer.  Thanks for confirming and for the additional information.  I am leaning toward the FiiO E10 and the LRS 305's, but I'll let you know what I end up with.

I haven't gotten responses to my question, but it's basically this and one point to make is the LSR's only have balanced inputs. I've got the Audioengine DAC and when I ran RCA outfox that > XLR to my 305's I picked up some interference when I turned up the gain to midway. I need to spend some time more carefully routing my cables around mains power to see if that resolves it sufficiently but 8'm also looking for suitable USB interfaces with balanced outputs.

My USB pre2 works great of course but I like using it to record and don't like connecting and disconnecting it.

The options with balanced outputs take you into the worked of home recording and ADCs vs strictly DAC.

Anybody using something with balanced output?

I like the 305s a lot. I should have gotten the 308s Instead or a 310 sub as well probably to get more low end but I can add a sub now.

Hi, thanks for the info.  Given this information, I've re-thought my original approach (i.e.: FiiO E10) and was thinking of using a 'Tascam US-2x2 2-Channel USB Audio Interface' instead.  I think this interface would work quite well.  It has 2 1/4" balanced outputs.  Any thoughts?

Ultfris101 has another thread going here of a similar nature > http://taperssection.com/index.php?topic=171293.0.  Tascam, Focusrite, Mackie, Roland, etc. all make outboard interface/soundcard boxes that work well.  As I posted there, I've been using an Edirol UA-101 (discontinued) for awhile with my desktop computer in that capacity and I'm pretty happy with it.
