    Behringer or Edirol
    I need to know what others think about this but which speaker is better for studio monitoring? The Behringer MS16 or the Edirol MA-10A

    yeah i should also add that what says in your profile doesnt quite match your avatar... (and yes, I CAN judge that sort of thing)
    as Pat.P said, get off the drugs or get off the forum...

    OK, I'll play.

    I have no idea what application you have for these tiny things, but I'm sure you have your reasons. I'm not a pro, but I believe for pro monitoring, you want ruler flat response. Now believe it or not, manytimes this is counter to what actually sounds good for listening to music in a domestic environment. SirTT and Mixadude are engineers, ask them what they use if this is what you are trying to achieve.

    The MS16 offers response of (cough) 80hz-20khz, which is pretty lousy as you'll be missing a heck of a lot of information with a cut-off of 80hz. The MA-10a offers a claimed 45hz-35khz which is clearly better, although neither manufacturer states how the measurements were taken and no FR graphs are provided. If you really want to get serious with an active pro monitor, check into Genelec. I've heard these myself and while they won't win any beauty contests, they are serious speakers with serious sound.

    Hope this helps.

    Ok guys I am serious about this since I am really planning to buy one of those speakers. I can only afford the Behringer MS16 or the Edirol MA-10A.

    I don't doubt that! but that's because i'm inherently trusty and good-willed. If you really want to be taken seriously by the people here, i suggest you edit your profile. It doesn't quite inspire a sense of "seriousness" in a forum about audio...

    If I get the Edirol MA-10D is it worth to get the Edirol MA-20D?

    Why would you need two pairs of speakers?

    (Now I'm just having fun...)

    but are these real STUDIO monitors or home studio monitors? Could I use these for live studio recording? at home? In my opinion the Ritalin XC-900 would beat the Edirols any day, and they're cheaper.
