[QUOTE="Jay Barracato, post: 7956, member: 24"] I am in the process of mixing some live multitracks and I have been using either some standard iPod buds, one of several of my live use headphones (senn or gk ultra phones) or a small mackie mixer through a k10. All these present some problems tonally. looking at sweetwater it seems there are a lot of choices for active "studio" monitors in the $150-$250 each range. I can justify this for the amount of mixing/mastering I will be doing at home but not a lot more. I am not really looking to set up a home studio, but just want to be able to take live tracks and create reasonable demos. so given a budget of $500, what monitors should I look at, or would I be better off with a better pair of headphones?
