Need to buy cheap monitors

[Magnus]

Hi I need to buy some monitors, but I don't know anything about monitors. I just need them for at home but if I can use them at gigs it'll be great.

budget?

[deviantdigi]

you gotta be more specific bruh.

yeah id like to get in on this too, active monitors for home use, preferably around the 150W

Hard to give specific recommendations without a budget since that will be the limiting factor.

However, I can suggest Craigslist as your best friend and the first place to look. I noticed that the TS is from Denmark and that CL isn't what it is here so I suggest finding something similar. Classified ads targeting musicians would be a good place to start.

I just picked up a set of gen 1 Rokit 8s for $200. They weren't DJs but musicians who were selling some stuff out of their studio.

Hope that helps.

These are apparently very good entry level monitors
