Last year I bought a hercules 2.1 speaker set for €25. They were good to say the least. But the last few weeks they have the occasional crack and pop. And today I was at a rather large multimedia store and they had these on sale for €119. The hercules xps 2.0 80 dj monitor.
I still don't have dedicated DJ speakers, I plug my 2.1 system in the laptop and the mixer so that is quite a hassle all the time. And my early production attempts have also been on the little 2.1 system. Is it time for a set of new speakers ? My goodwill shop has some home stereo speakers but the connections are just cables that are stripped at the end. So that sucks. And these are a quarter of the price of KRKs, what is on my wishlist when I take producing to new level.
Anyways, I think these hercules monitors are marketed to the beginner controller DJ that aspires to be the next David Guetta and they look cool and sound alright but that they are not a smart buy.
What do you think oh wise men of DJTT ?
