I actualy found out that my Edirol MA-10D monitors are really better than I thought since I tested it more and I was more impressed. It is really clear and precise for the price. I mean for $165 pair bi-amped monitors with digital inputs this is the best studio monitors I ever seen and I love them. :cool:

At long last! SV has found the answer! We should all take a moment to rejoice, for no longer will there be any more 'which is better' posts! Hip, Hip, Hooray! The best studio monitor for listening to test tones has been found! Hip, Hip, Hooray! Rejoice!

...is a strange critter, ain't it?.. and ia a terrible trhing to waste.

But, in this season and trying to lose weight, or at least not blow up like the blue girl in Willie Wonka, another axiom* comes to mind.

"a waist is a terrible thing to mind"

Ba da boom!

The ever lovin' Markw (Happy whatever it is y'all be celebtatin' this time o' year)

* Hey since this is the speaker forum, do I get extra points for that?

...was AH you might get another green Chicklet...probably not.

We wish you a merry Oxnard,
We wish you a grassy front yard,
We wish you an unpunched punch-card,
And a case of root beer!!!

Since Christ is the reason for the season, I want to wish all and sundry a most joyous and Merry Christmas...excepting, of course, all you non-believing heathens who have usurped the true meaning of the season and turned it into the commercial debacle that it has become...happy holidays this...humbuggers!

jimHJJ(...and a happy new year...)

I removed the metal grille that was on the woofers and it sounds more clear now. Plus it looks more professional too. I have heard studio monitors that costs $800 pair and of cource they sound better but for the price my monitors are the best ever. :cool:

I was able to just remove that metal grilles and I put back the ring frame on the monitors. So it looks soo professional and sounds more clear and precise too. ;)

So, does this mean that you are going to sell your other 3 sets of monitors? No need for them anymore. And you could use the money to buy more CD's.

...hate to burst your bubble, but...the wavelengths involved would be little affected by a metal grille being off or on...now if 'twere your tweeters there might be some justification...not much, but some...

So you have listened/measured and they sound better...you have removed some hardware and they sound better...what's next, a coat of paint? That should make a HUGE difference...

he gives us his woes,
on his speakers highs and lows,
and still ends up with his head in his hanky...

but its like an ape going fishin,
he throws out a line,
and continues to whine,
new speakers soon he will be wishin....

The grill is there to protect the speaker cone. Are you sure you want to leave it off? What if your cat scratches the cone? No more speaker.

No more speaker.I guess you are actualy right the grilles are there to protect the drivers from dust and objects too. Since I agree with you I decided to keep the grilles on my Edirol MA-10D. I do want to take care of my studio monitors since they do sound really good to me. :)

Good choice. Are you going to sell the other speakers next? You don't really need them anymore. And you could use the extra cash for CD or DVD's. Or anything else for that matter. You could even put it in the bank while you save more for your next upgrade.
