    Default Best Monitors and Headphones on a budget

    Hey guys,

    I'm after a good set of headphones and monitor speakers on a £400 budget.

    At the moment I'm thinking:

    HD 25s are good headphones but if you don't have a tiny head Allen and heath Xone: XD-53's are the best. They are just a little big...

    For monitors search craigslist for KRK Rokkit 5 or Rokkit 8s. I got a pair of Rokkit 8s for $300 with stands. They are great and with the 10s subwoofer they are just awesome.

    My HD25's are amazing. Can't recommend them enough.
    It's the FAQ. Read it.

    Yeah I'll probably get the sennheiser phones.

    Just unsure now on monitor speakers. Been thinking about either the Alesis (above) or something good for a £300 budget.

    I agree on the KRK rp5. I had those for a few years and quality/price ratio is amazing.

    If you can go on the 8 (8 inch woofer) even better!
