Sorry guys i will eventually stop asking questions but when your changing your setup theres so much choice (remember i am down sizing) so i have decided on the NI S4 now for the speakers £400 for the pair. KrK Rokit powered RP8 G2 they have awsom reviews, does anybody on here use these and whats peoples opinions or alternate options
I’m not too sure on the 8’s. But I run an S4 with rokit 6’s and it sounds amazing in my bedroom environment. I find it as loud and bass heavy as I would want it.
6’s and a sub are going to have better low end response than two 8’s by themselves by far.
Even the KRK 8’s only stretch down to 45hz on the low end, and that is there max low, they really do well in the 70-200hz range.
If you really want that clean sub-low extension, a separate sub is a must.
Ive got two dual 15" full range studio monitors, and a Panasonic tube amp to power them, I just don’t have a studio (bedroom) big enough to use them…
So I also have two 6" G2 Rockit’s and an obscene sub for the bedroom, I don’t ever run the sub any where close to its peak, but the low end is puts out is a dream…
i don’t get it why everyone is into bass that much. in my opinion a separate sub for extra bass is only needed if you play in a large room or outdoors. if you have a massive bass but the highs/mids can’t keep up with it, it just doesn’t sound good. in my opinion thats the case for most pc soundsystems with separate subs. for a home setup where you don’t constantly play at club volume i would even prefer not to have a separate sub as i think that you get a more direct bass at lower volume.
i’m currently using syrincs m3-220 speakers which have a massive sub. i got a good deal on them and they sound good but at lower volume the bass could be clearer and more direct. i guess i will buy some krk g2 8 soon, listened to them at a friends and they sound amazing even at higher voulme.
