    Default Help with finding studio monitors & mic

    Hello,

    I want to set up my "beginner" home studio & wanted help with finding studio monitors & a mic. I've heard that I should not compromise on the studio monitors & mic but would prefer to not spend over $500 for both.

    I would love to get a pair of Yamaha HS5 speakers & AT mic but both could cost me close to $800 or more.

    Anyone have other less expensive suggestions?

    Thanks!

    Forget it. I actually found some good suggestions on Musicians Friend.

    You could get a pair of KRK Rokit 5s for around $300 and a Shure/Audix condenser mic for around $100. Yes it's good to not compromise on monitors and mics, but as long as you get a decent quality when you're starting out, you probably won't benefit from the fine nuances that more expensive gear will net you. It's likely best to "outgrow" your equipment rather than try to get the perfect setup and then grow into it.
